Read this excerpt from Immigrant Kids.
Giuseppe and I held tightly to Stepfather's hands, while
Liberta and Helvetia clung to Mother. Passengers all
about us were crowding against the rail. Jabbered
conversations, sharp cries, laughs and cheers -- a
steadily rising din filled the air. Mothers and fathers lifted
up babies so that they too could see, off to the left, the
Statue of Liberty
What best paraphrases the central idea of the excerpt?
It was noisy on the ship sailing to America. Immigrant
parents and children made a lot of noise, especially
when they got to the Statue of Liberty.
Immigrant families sailing to America were excited
when they finally made it to the New York harbor.
Everyone on board made happy noise as they
reached the United States,
Everyone on board the ship was fighting to see the
Statue of Liberty Babies and mothers and fathers all
cried because they couldn't see it, because it was off
to the left
Immigrant children had to hold tightly to their parents
hands. There was so much crowding and jostling on
board the ship. If they didn't stay close to their
parents, they would fall off the boat
