Read this passage from My Antonia.One result of this family solidarity was that the foreign farmers in our county were the first to become prosperous. After the fathers were out of debt, the daughters married the sons of neighbours–usually of like nationality–and the girls who once worked in Black Hawk kitchens are to-day managing big farms and fine families of their own; their children are better off than the children of the town women they used to serve.
Answer
A
The children of immigrants became wealthier than those of town women because immigrant families helped each other.
B
It is good for neighbors to get married because then they can have bigger farms.
C
People shouldn’t get married if their fathers have debts because then they will be poor after they are married.
D
Farming is a better way to make money than having a store.
Explanation
The passage says foreign farming families helped one another become prosperous. Once the fathers were out of debt, the daughters often married neighboring farmers, and the former kitchen workers went on to manage large farms and raise families whose children were better off than the town women’s children. This supports choice A: immigrant families’ solidarity helped their children become wealthier.
