Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Ellis Island welcomed many new immigrants to the United States.

Explanation:

Ellis Island is an island in the Port of New York and New Jersey at the mouth of the Hudson River. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, the port on the island was the arrival point for many of the immigrants who came to the United States. Individuals with chronic illnesses or who showed signs of fatal illness were denied entry and were allowed to return. Many of these immigrants settled during their first years in New York and northern New Jersey. The port was opened January 1, 1892 and closed November 29, 1954. Over the years, 12 million immigrants passed the port, but 2% were not allowed to enter the United States and were sent home.

The island got its name after a Samuel Ellis, who owned the island in the 1770s. However, it came into state ownership in the early 1800s.

So I have to type a 2 page made up Christmas story and I'm not good at making stories.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Write a story about something easy, something that you're familiar with. It's better to submit something late that you wrote yourself than risk getting in trouble.

Here are some example sentences:

"Merry Christmas!" said Mr. Doug, our next door neighbor.

This Christmas was the best so far. At first, I was hesitant to go on a family trip, but soon enough, I forgot about all that I had left behind.

I smiled and watched from afar. It would be a Christmas miracle if he noticed me.

Good luck!

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1. What did the man think when the boy did not return at once?

The man thought that the boy ran away with the money.

2. What took the boy too long to return?

The boy lost the money, so he had to clean the utensils of the tea vendor to have the cup of tea.

3. What do you think the man felt after knowing it? Why?

I think that he felt bad about himself because he judged the boy by his appearance.

4. Does his experience reflect bias or prejudice? Why?

His experience reflects prejudice because he judged the boy by his attire. He had the prejudice that poor or pathetically dressed boys are thefts.

5. How can we avoid this kind of situation?

We can avoid this kind of situation by learning through different experiences and texts, like this story. Also, we should reflect on our actions and thoughts to identify prejudices and work on them.

Explanation:

1.We can see that the man thought that the boy ran away with the money in the fourth paragraph when he says, "Now I was sure that the child ran away the money..."

2. The answer to question number two is in the last paragraph when the boy explains what happened "He told me, he lost the 5 rupees coin and so he had to clean the utensils of the tea vendor, to bring me a cup of tea."

3. It is not in the story, but we can infer that he felt bad since he judged someone wrong and unfairly since the boy was not a thief. He only was pathetically dressed.

4. We can see that his experience reflects prejudice since he has a concept in his mind about people dressed in dirty and torn clothes. He relates the appearance of someone with traits, so there's prejudice because he is judging the boy without knowing him.

5. There are many ways to avoid these situations. One of them is by educating ourselves and reflecting on our thought and actions. We can do this in different ways. For example, by reading, talking with others about their experiences and point of view, or thinking about our actions.
