@WriI don't think so, I'm thinking he means C
Answered by Writeacher
He starts out sounding like that, but read that last part again: " … immigrants who, with their descendants, are now numbered among our best citizens."

One of the best ways to deal with these multiple-choice questions is to start out by <b>crossing out the obviously wrong ones!</b> Once you have them crossed out, your mind can concentrate on the others, and you'll make better decisions.
