Answer:

B. True joy is experienced after difficult battles are won.

Explanation:

Barbara Davis-Pyle's "Ellis Island" presents the author's experience of her family's journey to come to America. As immigrants, they had to go through "Ellis Island", which is synonymous with 'check-points, scrutiny' for immigrants wanting to have a fresh start in America.

In the given excerpt, Barbara reveals how relieved she was after<em> "all of the questions were over."</em> This is further supported by the statement <em>"joy won the fight on Mama’s face"</em>, presenting huge happiness in them. The figurative language in stating <em>"Lady Liberty . . . stood tall with her spoon in hand, ready to stir us in" </em>reveals how true joy is most definitely an overwhelming feeling and can be experienced only after difficult battles are won.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

A. His gratefulness, as shown when Crusoe saves his life.

After rescuing one of the Natives of the Island, Crusoe starts to converse with him so that he can know about him and his native people.

He taught him to speak some words of English, the way to clothe oneself, the eating habits and to call him his ‘master.’ Crusoe noticed that it was easy for him to educate Friday through religious patterns. He tells him about God and his creations with whom Friday easily related his own deity Benamuckee.
