The United States of America comprises probably the greatest mixture1. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
of nationalities and races to be found anywhere in the world. The
fact that most of these people entered the country as immigrants
and later were awarded naturalization is a leading factor behind
5 both the growth and philosophy of what has become one of the greatest
nations of all time. Without immigration the US would have remained
an insular, second-class country which despite its size, or maybe
because of it, would nowadays be rated with Russia, India or Mexico.
10 Very important to this immigration is the diversity. Firstly, the
majority of immigrants came from Europe. Then, they came mainly from
the American continent. Finally, Asia has become the area from which
most immigrants come, that is if we don't count illegal immigrants,
for if we include these the Americas still supply the largest number
15 of people coming into the country. Of course, we must not forget
the large number of Africans that were brought over as slaves and
have remained to become full American citizens.
We can say that this variety of peoples truly does represent the whole
20 world; we can even find Australasian immigrants. And it is this diversity
that has certainly created many, still unsolved, problems, but it
has also created a truly world nation, one that has been able to
draw on the intrinsic skills and qualities of every nation of the
world.
