1. How much time was the trip from Europe and Asia, and how would you have liked it?
The trip across the Atlantic Ocean from Europe took approximately one week, and while crossing the Pacific Ocean from Asia took nearly three weeks. And I wouldn't like it because everyone in the ship has to be in a room and aren't allowed to exercise or to catch a breath of fresh air.
2. What are the names of the main immigration processing stations in San Francisco & New York?
The main immigration processing stations in San Francisco & New York are San Francisco's Angel Island where the chinese immigrants had to go in order to enter the United States, but the chinese people had to wait an a filthy building to see if they were accepted or not and New York's Ellis Island where the European immigrants had to go to, but 20 percent of the immigrants had to stay for a day or more, but 2 percent of the immigrants were denied and sent back home.
3. How did Denis Kearny try to stop Asian people from entering California in 1882? Why did he do this, and how would you feel if you were chinese?
