Answer:

Hi, I can help!

The answer is:

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe that this answer is correct because the question states that "...Ellis Island was a processing center sensitive to immigrants.." What does this mean?

This means that the immigrants were very overwhelmed with what they had to do, and some were speechless, because many could not understand what the staff was asking them. When you read "no surprise" in the answer, somehow your brain would think, Oh that's not the answer, and it means immigrants were not surprised, so this could not be the answer. When it states "it comes as no surprise that dozens and dozens of clerks and stenographers were employed there"

One note, stenographers are people who type what an individual person says, and they also type fast, because when people speak, it is enormously common for their words to come out faster than the keyboard. Think of it as the people who you see sitting in chairs on the News, because they are typing the information related to political work (On a laptop or another device(s) ), and they want to know how that works. (Like a judge room.)

When the answer is formed that way, it gives you a clue that the immigrants already knew what they had to go through, because they were sacrificing their self and their families to go to America. The immigrants were surprised, but they knew what they had to overcome, and they were sensitive because they were new to those things.

I truthfully apologize if this answer was incorrect and caused you some trouble. God bless you and your family! Stay safe, and remember that you have to courage to bring up your grade to an A+!!

Answer:

Throughout the years, numerous organizations offered aid to immigrants at Ellis Island. Many of these immigrant aid societies maintained permanent representatives on Ellis Island.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ellis Island is an island in New York Harbor which is owned by the federal government. It contains a museum and an immigration processing center used by the government during the mass immigration of 1892 to 1954.

"The Workers of Ellis Island" details the lives and scenes of this immigration center, some recollections of the migration of people to America. The passage "Throughout the years, numerous organizations offered aid to immigrants at Ellis Island. Many of these immigrant aid societies maintained permanent representatives on Ellis Island" shows that this island was sensitive to the needs of the immigrants.
