Which of the following paraphrases the excerpt? Physicians checked the newcomers for illness and defects. They looked for sickness which was easily spread, especially on the head of the skin. Eye disease was also a big concern, so eye exams were quickly performed. An expert describes the health exams performed on Ellis Island. “One doctor looked for physical and mental abnormalities. When a case aroused suspicion, the immigrant received a chalk mark . . .” Freedman writes that the doctors were very strict about checking for trachoma. He says that the doctor “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.” “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.”
