Read this excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman. But the journey was not yet over. Before they could be admitted to the United States, immigrants had to pass through Ellis Island, which became the nation's chief immigrant processing center in 1892. There they would be questioned and examined. Those who could not pass all the exams would be detained; some would be sent back to Europe. And so their arrival in America was filled with great anxiety. Among the immigrants, Ellis Island was known as "Heartbreak Island."

Which detail best supports the idea that Ellis Island was often frightening to the immigrants?

Immigrants who failed exams were sent home.
Ellis Island began processing immigrants in 1892.
People were asked questions at Ellis Island.
