HELP ASAP I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF NOT I WONT!! Read this excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman.

Now the examinations began. First the immigrants were examined by two doctors of the United States Health Service. One doctor looked for physical and mental abnormalities. When a case aroused suspicion, the immigrant received a chalk mark on the right shoulder for further inspection: L for lameness, H for heart, X for mental defects, and so on.

The second doctor watched for contagious and infectious diseases. He looked especially for infections of the scalp and at the eyelids for symptoms of trachoma, a blinding disease. Since trachoma caused more than half of all medical detentions, this doctor was greatly feared. He stood directly in the immigrant's path. With a swift movement, he would grab the immigrant's eyelid, pull it up, and peer beneath it. If all was well, the immigrant was passed on.

Which detail best supports the idea that only immigrants with good health were allowed entrance into the United States?

One doctor drew chalk marks on immigrants with health problems.
The two doctors worked for the United States Health Service.
An H mark on an immigrant meant he or she had heart problems.

What is external and internal conflict?

All conflict falls into two classifications: internal and external.

  • Internal conflict is the point at which a person battles with their own contradicting wants or convictions. It occurs inside them, and it drives their advancement as a person.

  • External conflict sets a person against a person or thing outside their ability to control.

  • Internal conflicts, you could feel a conflict between contending wants.  For instance, a person might battle not to go after the container. That individual realizes they need to quit drinking, yet the craving to drink is exceptionally solid, prompting an extraordinary internal battle.

I remember distinctly the thrill of climbing aboard a U.S. Army helicopter in the cool of the morning and taking off across the rice fields with a South Vietnamese battalion for a day’s jousting with the Vietcong guerillas. There was hope then that the non-Communist Vietnamese might win their war. I was proud of the young American pilots sitting at the controls in the cockpit and I was grateful for the opportunity to witness this adventure and to report it. We are fighting now, I used to think, and some day we will triumph and this will be a better country. Which choice best describes how the author builds conflict in this excerpt?
