Writing an Informative Essay about the Immigrant Experience

Question 13 • * SY2025-26 - 1001010-M/J Language Arts 1 Sem 1 CR

Which quote from Russell Freedman’s Immigrant Kids uses the correct form of a citation?

Answer
A
“Others had to make the journey in stages. Often the father came first, found work, and then sent for his family later” (Freedman 6).
B
“Others had to make the journey in stages. Often the father came first, found work, and then sent for his family later” (Immigrant Kids, 6).
C
“Others had to make the journey in stages. Often the father came first, found work, and then sent for his family later” (Immigrant Kids 6).
D
“Others had to make the journey in stages. Often the father came first, found work, and then sent for his family later” (Freedman, p. 6).

Explanation

A parenthetical citation for a book with an author uses the author’s last name followed by the page number, without a comma or “p.” The citation should therefore read “(Freedman 6),” as in choice A. The other choices include the book title or add punctuation and a page abbreviation that aren’t used in this citation format.
