Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Two-thirds of the foreign-born population lives in or around major metropolitan areas and works in mainly service-producing and blue-collar sectors. They are also more likely to be poorer. The majority of foreign born are legal immigrants (85). More than 54 of the foreign-born adults in the labor force have completed high school, which would not be considered a large portion.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
A nonimmigrant is admitted for a limited duration for a specific purpose. Refugees are people who seek protection in the United States because of fear of persecution in their homeland. Legal immigrants are people who are not citizens but are legally allowed to live and work in United States, usually because they fulfill labor demands or have family ties. Lawful permanent resident is another name for legal immigrants.
