The Chinese Exclusion Act was a United States federal law signed by President Chester A. Arthur on May 6, 1882, prohibiting all immigration of Chinese laborers. Building on the earlier Page Act of 1875 which banned Chinese women from immigrating to the United States, the Chinese Exclusion Act was the first, and remains the only law to have been implemented, to prevent all members of a specific ethnic or national group from immigrating to the United States.

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Read the excerpt from Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.

You are mistaken, Mr. Darcy, if you suppose that the mode of your declaration affected me in any other way, than as it spared me the concern which I might have felt in refusing you, had you <u>behaved in a more gentleman-like manner.</u>

Which type of phrase is the underlined portion of the sentence?

A.  adverbial phrase

B.  verb phrase

C.  absolute phrase
