Read this excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman.

Edward Corsi, who later became United States Commissioner of Immigration, was a ten-year-old Italian immigrant when he sailed into New York harbor in 1907:

My first impressions of the New World will always remain etched in my memory, particularly that hazy October morning when I first saw Ellis Island. The steamer Florida, fourteen days out of Naples, filled to capacity with 1600 natives of Italy, had weathered one of the worst storms in our captain's memory; and glad we were, both children and grown-ups, to leave the open sea and come at last through the Narrows into the Bay.

My mother, my stepfather, my brother Giuseppe, and my two sisters, Liberta and Helvetia, all of us together, happy that we had come through the storm safely, clustered on the foredeck for fear of separation and looked with wonder on this miraculous land of our dreams.

Passage 2: "Columbus"

Behind him lay the gray Azores,



Behind the Gates of Hercules;



Before him not the ghost of shores;



Before him only shoreless seas.



5 The good mate said: "Now must we pray,



For lo! the very stars are gone.



Brave Adm'r'l, speak; what shall I say?"



"Why, say, 'Sail on! sail on! and on!'" "My men grow mutinous day by day;



10 My men grow ghastly, wan and weak."



The stout mate thought of home; a spray



Of salt wave washed his swarthy cheek.



"What shall I say, brave Adm'r'l, say,



If we sight naught but seas at dawn?"



15 "Why, you shall say at break of day:



'Sail on! sail on! sail on! and on!'"



They sailed and sailed, as winds might blow,



Until at last the blanched mate said:



"Why, now not even God would know



20 Should I and all my men fall dead.



These very winds forget their way,



For God from these dread seas is gone.


Now speak, brave Adm'r'l, speak and say"-



He said: "Sail on! sail on! and on!"


25 They sailed. They sailed. Then spake the mate:



"This mad sea shows his teeth to-night.



He curls his lip, he lies in wait,



He lifts his teeth, as if to bite!



Brave Adm'r'l, say but one good word:



30 What shall we do when hope is gone?"



The words leapt like a leaping sword:



"Sail on! sail on! sail on! and on!"



Then, pale and worn, he kept his deck,



And peered through darkness. Ah, that night



35 Of all dark nights! And then a speck-


A light! A light! At last a light!



It grew, a starlit flag unfurled!



It grew to be Time's burst of dawn.



He gained a world; he gave that world



40 Its grandest lesson: "On!

The concerns about sending people to Mars are definitely worth considering. For one thing, the mission will cost billions of dollars. This would be a huge additional cost at a time when national debts continue to skyrocket. Also, that money could help fix problems here on Earth.

Mars may have valuable resources. The Earth’s resources are already starting to dwindle, and our population continues to grow. Finding resources on Mars could provide much-needed relief for the overstressed ecosystems of Earth.

What is the best way to connect the paragraphs?

deleting the last sentence of the first paragraph
deleting the first sentence of the second paragraph
adding a transition at the beginning of the second paragraph
adding another sentence with evidence at the end of the first paragraph
