Now, read a quote from a Jewish immigrant who arrived at Ellis Island in 1917. As you read, think about how the young women were feeling.

They asked us questions. "How much is two and one? How much is two and two?" But the next young girl, also from our city, went and they asked her, "How do you wash stairs, from the top or from the bottom?" She says, "I don't go to America to wash stairs."

-Trifles, Pauline Notkoff
