What can you infer about Sally Ann based on the passage below:


This answer did not satisfy Susan and she often thought about it. To enter the mill, to stand quietly and look about, was the best kind of entertainment, for she was fascinated by the whir of the looms, by the nimble fingers of the weavers, and by the general air of efficiency. Admiringly she watched Sally Ann Hyatt, the tall capable weaver from Vermont. When the yarn on the beam was tangled or there was something wrong with the machinery, Elijah, the overseer, always called out to Sally Ann, "I'll tend your loom, if you'll look after this."

A.Sally Ann was from Vermont.

B.Sally Ann was entertaining to watch.

C.Sally Ann was a weaver in the mill.

Read this excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman. Now the examinations began. First the immigrants were examined by two doctors of the United States Health Service. One doctor looked for physical and mental abnormalities. When a case aroused suspicion, the immigrant received a chalk mark on the right shoulder for further inspection: L for lameness, H for heart, X for mental defects, and so 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. Since trachoma caused more than half of all medical detentions, this doctor was greatly feared. He 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. Which detail best supports the idea that only immigrants with good health were allowed entrance into the United States? One doctor drew chalk marks on immigrants with health problems. The two doctors worked for the United States Health Service. An H mark on an immigrant meant he or she had heart problems. Trachoma is a blinding and very contagious eye disease.

Fluoride is a mineral that is added to public drinking water supplies in much of the United States in order to reduce levels of tooth decay. When a tooth is forming, fluoride strengthens the enamel, or outside coating of the teeth. The fluoride mixes with the enamel, making it harder. In addition, when fluoride mixes with saliva, it can protect teeth from sugars, further reducing tooth decay. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) states that drinking fluoridated water provides additional protection even for people who simply brush with fluoride toothpaste. Reports on the impacts of fluoridated drinking water have concluded that it reduces tooth decay by about twenty-five percent.
