Question

While push factors push people from their homes, pull factors pull people to new locations. Better education or medical care, family ties or a fondness for a particular place are all reasons that might attract a person to a new home. Like push factors, pull factors are based on the environment, culture, economy or politics. A family might move to eastern France to take advantage of the climate and landscape near the Alps, a long mountain range in Europe. This family would be pulled by an environmental factor.
Which of these describes immigration due to a political pull factor?
A. People leaving Eastern Europe in the 1940s when communist governments took hold of their countries.
B. People coming to the US in the 1940s because they were drawn to the democratic government.
C. People moving to Northern California because they are drawn to the mild weather.
D. People leaving Chicago because of the cold and snowy winters.

Answer 1

B. The answer should be B since it’s pulling people into a new area, and it’s about politics.
