Which is an example of paraphrasing the excerpt?

HELP IM BEING TIMED!

(A The immigrants’ next stop after landing in the States was Ellis Island. This was the place where they would be given health exams and other tests to see if they would be allowed to stay. Many feared the tests because they did not want to be sent back to their homeland.

(B “Filing into an enormous inspection hall, the immigrants formed long lines separated by iron railings . . .”

(C One author says, “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.”

(D Freedman writes about Ellis Island, “Officials hurried them along, shouting ‘Quick! Run! Hurry!’ in half a dozen languages.”
