Read the excerpt from "Ellis Island.”

"We lived there for three days—Mother and we five children, the youngest of whom was three years old,” recalled Angelo Pellegrini, whose family moved from Italy when he was 10. "Because of the rigorous physical examination that we had to submit to, particularly of the eyes, there was this terrible anxiety that one of us might be rejected. And if one of us was, what would the rest of the family do?”

Along with everyone else, Angelo’s family was examined for contagious diseases, such as chicken pox, measles, mumps, scarlet fever, and tuberculosis. If an illness could be treated, the sick were hospitalized on the island. About 2 percent were sent back to where they came from.

Read the excerpt from Homecoming.

At half-past eight, Dicey herded everybody back into the mall, to use the bathrooms they had found earlier. Later, Sammy and Maybeth fell asleep easily, curled up along the back seat. James moved up to the front with Dicey. Dicey couldn't see how they were both to sleep in the front seat, but she supposed they would manage it. James sat stiffly, gripping the wheel. James had a narrow head and sharp features, a nose that pointed out, pencil-thin eyebrows, a narrow chin. Dicey studied him in the darkening car. They were parked so far from the nearest lamppost that they were in deep shadows.

With her brothers and sisters near, with the two youngest asleep in the back seat, sitting as they were in a cocoon of darkness, she should feel safe. But she didn't. Though it was standing still, the car seemed to be flying down a highway, going too fast. Even the dark inside of it was not deep enough to hide them. Faces might appear in the windows at any time, asking angry questions.

Based on the excerpt, which best describes Dicey’s mood?

She is very worried about what would happen to her family.
She is in denial about her family’s present circumstances.
She is trying to stay upbeat and carefree whenever possible.
She is having a hard time feeling safe in almost all situations.

word in the text that best represents that idea.
The kitchen? This is making even less sense now. My grandmother never allows
anyone but my mom into her kitchen! Why on earth is she insisting I come over here on a
Saturday and head to the kitchen? When I turn to say goodbye to Mom, she gives me a wink
and a hug and whispers into my ear, "Congratulations, Claudia. I'm so proud of the young lady
you have become." I seriously have no idea what is going on here, and I must admit that this
whole thing is becoming increasingly more aggravating,
And then, as I walk in to Abuela's kitchen, it begins to make a lot more sense. Sitting on
her kitchen table are an apron and The Book. I turn to Abuela, and she offers me a glowing
smile. "You have made it, Claudia," she whispers to me with a combination of nostalgia and
pride. "Only the women in our family are given the privilege of knowing the secret recipes
found in The Book. My Abuela shared its contents with me when I turned thirteen, and now I
have the honor of sharing it with you."
