Question

Read the excerpt about the Sicurella family from "Island of Hope, Island of Tears." Pietro and Rosa Sicurella lived with their nine children in Adrano, Sicily prior to coming to the United States. Pietro and Rosa's oldest son, Giuseppe, immigrated in 1903 to study art. His brother Salvatore followed in 1908 and their siblings Antonio, Maria Anna, and Angelina joined them in 1913. When Giuseppe died in 1916, the Sicurella siblings living in New York decided not to return to Sicily--the rest of the family joined them after World War I.

Answer: c. A sequence text structure is used to explain the movement of the family between Sicily and the United States.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence text structure is one where the events in the text are ordered in steps or chronologically (by time).

The excerpt above follows a sequential pattern as it tells the story of the movement of the Sicurella family in chronological order starting with the movement of Giuseppe in 1903 all the way to the immigration of the rest of the family after WW1.
