Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman. Those who failed to get past both doctors had to undergo a more thorough medical exam. The others moved on to the registration clerk, who questioned them with the aid of an interpreter: What is your name? Your nationality? Your occupation? Can you read and write? Have you ever been in prison? How much money do you have with you? Where are you going?

Which answer choice best paraphrases this excerpt?

Interpreters were used to give medical examinations to immigrants. They would ask them questions about where they were from and where they were planning to go in America. If someone failed the medical exam, they would be sent to another doctor.
After passing a medical exam, immigrants would be asked their name and questioned by a clerk in their native language. Topics included nationality, what kind of work they could do, and literacy. Each person was also asked if they had been to prison, how much money they had brought, and their destination in the United States.
Immigrants passing the medical test were at once given a more thorough examination by a third doctor. If they failed this exam, they were sent back to their own country. If they passed, they were asked a series of questions before being allowed to enter the United States. While it was unfair, this was the system in place at the time.
With the help of an interpreter, immigrants were asked the following questions before being let into the United States: What is your name? Your nationality? Your occupation? Can you read and write? Have you ever been in prison? How much money do you have with you? Where are you going?
