Answer:

Can you mark me as Brainliest Please  

Explanation:

<h2>Immigration today is a worse problem than the Great Wave</h2>

The proponents of mass immigration claim that we should not worry about it, since it's not worse than the Great Wave of immigration at the turn of the century. Nevertheless, because of greatly changing times in the last hundred years, immigration now does not correspond to our country's needs as it did at the turn of the last century.

<h2>Skilled workers are needed today</h2>

As a result of rapid industrialization during the Gilded Age, low-skilled workers were highly employable. As a result of new mechanical devices and processes, workers with special skills and knowledge no longer needed to be employed. The U.S. Industrial Commission: “The division of labor and the use of machinery can facilitate both the use of cheap labor and the use of machinery as a result of the entry of unskilled immigrants.” However, modern technology does not require unskilled workers. Yet, in 2001, only 16 percent of legal immigrants were admitted as skilled workers.

<h2>Today's Immigrants are Permanent and Create Net Costs</h2>

Immigration may have had some marginal fiscal benefits before 1900. Today, the estimated annual net cost of each immigrant, on average, is $2700. Then, immigrants' stay in the U.S. was often Immigration today is permanent, not temporary. The Immigration and Naturalization Service estimates that the rate of return from 1900 to 1904 was over 37 percent 3; in the 1990s, the rate of immigrants' return to their homelands was a much lower 15 percent. 4

Do you think that being an American comes with guaranteed or "automatic" success? Why or why not?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

While being American does gauratee to an extent certain priviledges, you can't be assured success in a world with laziness and poverty. One does not know who they are going to be birthed from. It could be a wealthy person, or it could be the exact opposite. Now, one who starts off  in a poor family can still end sucsessfull, it's all in the amount of effort you put into life. One who grew up wealthy could end up in the streets. Maybe it's not even that they end up poor but perhaps lonely and tired or maybe they become lazy and simply unwilling to do things. You see, success isn't about where you are from, it's about your attitude towards life, your goals. Whereas one may think something like money or "being American" may garatee your success, success isn't always about your career. You can't be successful with a fallen marriage and broken relationsip with your children. Success comes from inside.

The following passage is biologist Hope Jahren’s prologue to her 2016 memoir Lab Girl. A prologue is an introduction that provid
bearhunter [10]

Answer: Jahren is a biologist who has a soft spot for leaves, trees and other life giving plant. In Jahren's prologue, she answered people who wanted to know why she didn't study the ocean though she lives in Hawaii. Jahren is concerned about the fate of trees and plants in the world. She believes that a lot of tree are being fell without adequately replacement and that this affects nature.

According to her, each plant or tree that is felled, is an unnecessary death and she doesn't care whether the plants were lacking in one vitamin or whether the plant is big or small. She believes that the first vital step to becoming a scientist is to care, and not necessarily by ones knowledge of biology, physics, or chemistry.

Some rhetorical choices were made when she said "Someone died? and

Maybe I can convince you" while trying to explain why plants should not be unnecessarily killed.
