Which of the following themes is best shown by this passage from My Antonia?
I thought the attitude of the town people toward these girls very stupid. If I told my schoolmates that Lena
Lingard's grandfather was a clergyman, and much respected in Norway, they looked at me blankly. What did it
matter? All foreigners were ignorant people who couldn't speak English. There was not a man in Black Hawk who
had the intelligence or cultivation, much less the personal distinction, of Antonia's father. Yet people saw no
difference between her and the three Marys; they were all Bohemians, all "hired girls."
People who live in towns are stupid.
All immigrants who work as servants are the same.
People who don't speak English are ignorant.
The dignity and capability of immigrants is often unrecognized.

Read this excerpt from white fang by jack london. the qualities in his kind that in the beginning made it possible for them to come in to the fires of men, were qualities capable of development. they were developing in him, and the camp-life, replete with misery as it was, was secretly endearing itself to him all the time. but white fang was unaware of it. he knew only grief for the loss of kiche, hope for her return, and a hungry yearning for the free life that had been his. which quotation from the paragraph supports the story’s theme of homesickness? “the camp life . . was secretly endearing itself to him all the time.” “but white fang was unaware of it.” “he knew only . . a hungry yearning for the free life that had been his.” “the qualities in his kind . . were qualities capable of development.”
