Read this excerpt about Angel Island, an immigration station in the 1900s.

Immigrants were detained for days, weeks, or months. They underwent unpleasant health exams and interviews designed to judge whether their claims were correct. Their answers had to match those of the US citizen they claimed as a relation, or they would be deported.

“They grilled us incessantly day after day,” said Don Kingman, a Chinese man who was, in fact, born in Oakland, California. At the age of five, his family moved to Hong Kong. But when he returned at age eighteen, he was sent through Angel Island. “They asked insignificant questions which were significant for them. How many steps do you have in front of your house? What did your mother have for breakfast? What is the name of your grandmother?”

Aged sixteen in 1935, Lester Tom Lee immigrated to America by himself. He was detained for about two months.

“The main reason I was detained so long was that my father and I gave the inspectors different dates about when I departed China,” Lee said. “The Chinese lunar calendar is about a month off from the American calendar! Aya!”

Which words best describe the experiences of Don Kingman and Lester Tom Lee?

entertaining, frustrating
satisfying, overwhelming
challenging, bewildering
embarrassing, exciting

h! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Df sun-split clouds — and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and
swung
High in the sunlit silence, hovering there
I've chased the shouting winds along and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air.
Up, up the long delirious burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark nor ever eagle flew
And while with silent, lifting mind I've walked
The high untouched silence of space.

Which statement best expresses the central idea in the passage in pain is simple and profound? A-“fear is simple and profound”
B-“fear keeps us from trusting the great mystery within ourselves”
C-“And then it takes a moment of grace to fan its wings, and then it takes a leap”
D-“the caterpillar knows that there's something more, even though there's no reason for it”
Passage- When I think about how we've gotten to this place of being so separated from the earth and from each other and from our choices, it seems like there's many prongs1 that have gotten us to this point.
I think one of the core elements, though, is actually quite simple, which is fear. And fear is simple and profound,2 just like love is simple and profound. And fear will drive us to make choices that our hearts don't long to make, that our spirits don't long to make. Fear will shut down the voice of the heart and spirit and collapse us into beings without meaning and without value.
I see in this culture in particular how that manifests is our addiction to comfortability.3 We are birthing an addict society. I went through a time in my life where I was a major drug and alcohol addict, and so I know on a very real level what addiction is. And as a society, we are being birthed into an addiction culture where you need consumerism,4 you need comfortability, and you go through the same withdrawals and all these same things that you go through as a drug addict or an alcoholic. I see even the most conscious among us making the most unconscious choices out of our addiction to comfortability.
I love using the example of the caterpillar becoming the butterfly because the caterpillar's got a pretty cool life, you know? It's chill, it lives on its food source, doesn't have too many threats, it's usually camouflaged so that whatever birds or things might come after it, it's slightly safe, and then it has this weird calling that defies description that says, "There's something more for you." [Laughs] And there's no rationale or reasoning, and in many ways we are that caterpillar going, "Man, I don't want to leave this leaf. This is cool. I've got it made here."
[5]
And yet there's this deeper calling that tells the caterpillar, "There's something more for you." And then the caterpillar has to trust this great unknown, this great mystery. And fear keeps us from trusting the great mystery within ourselves.
For me the divine is the great mystery, that we are all manifestations of this great mystery. I take a breath, and I am amazed at the great mystery that just allowed me to breathe and everything that happened for that magic to happen.
T



But this caterpillar follows the great mystery. And then it pulls the cocoon from within itself. It goes into its deepest depths and pulls this cocoon out and then wraps itself in it. And we are afraid of what's inside of ourselves.
When something comes up that we don't like, click on the television, go out to eat, go party with friends, go shopping, whatever it is that we don't have to take a good, hard look at what's inside of ourselves. But the caterpillar knows that there's something more, even though there's no reason for it and goes, "Okay, I'm going to do this work. It's uncomfortable, but I'm going to do this work." And then it wraps itself in there, and it's tight and it's dark, and there's nowhere to run and there's no way to sidetrack itself. It's just dealing with its innermost depths. And that process liquefies it. That's not a comfortable, touchy-feely kind of thing. [Laughs] That's not like, ohm, and it's all going to be better. That's some hardcore work.
There's the point, though, where that cocoon gets comfortable too. It might be a little cramped and dark in there, and I see that happening in our evolution as people. It gets a little cramped and dark in there, but it's also comfortable and safe now. We've created this little world around us that we can just call ourselves enlightened and stay there versus taking that enlightenment and having the courage to take it out into a world that's not like anything we can imagine.
[10]
The last thing that happens after the caterpillar begins to liquefy5 is its head pops off. And then its head absorbs into this liquid being that it's becoming. And if you take a cell from that liquid before its head pops off, it only reproduces part of a butterfly. After its head incorporates into its entire soupy being, you can take any cell and it recreates an entire new butterfly.
Then the caterpillar has to push through the barriers of comfortability again and trust that whatever is outside that space is going to be a magical world. And then it takes a moment of grace to fan6 its wings, and then it takes a leap.
I think that our fear consistently keeps us from that process, whether it's at the leaf stage or in the cocoon stage or where we get out and we flap our wings and say, "That edge looks a little scary. I'm just going to chill here." [Laughs]
