Answer to Question 1

ANS: c

Answer to Question 2

With mobility came social class distinctions within Irish America. The immigrants and their children who began to move into the more affluent urban areas were derogatorily referred to as the lace-curtain Irish. The lower-class Irish immigrants they left behind, meanwhile, were referred to as the shanty Irish.
