The Iron Dragon Chapter 5

The given statement suggests that Johnny was rude about the Chinese. This means that Johnny displayed disrespectful or offensive behavior towards the Chinese people. Therefore, the correct answer is TRUE, indicating that the statement is accurate.

Johnny was Jane's brother because siblings share the same parents, and the given options include Jane's father, uncle, cousin, and brother. Since Johnny cannot be Jane's father, uncle, or cousin, the only remaining option is that he is her brother.

Winnie met Jane Poole.

The Chinese were unhappy because they had to perform dangerous jobs, they faced disrespect, and they were paid poorly. These factors combined led to their overall dissatisfaction and unhappiness.

Winnie was drawing a picture of a stagecoach.

Based on the given options, the train will take 5 days to travel from Omaha to San Francisco. This is the most reasonable answer as traveling by train from Omaha to San Francisco would typically take several days, considering the distance between the two cities.

The correct answer is "The trains." Stagecoaches were going away because trains were a more efficient and faster mode of transportation. Trains offered a more reliable and comfortable travel experience compared to stagecoaches. The trains revolutionized transportation, making stagecoaches obsolete and unnecessary.

Trains arrive every day, which implies that there is a regular schedule for train arrivals. This suggests that trains run on a daily basis, ensuring consistent transportation for commuters and travelers. The option "every hour" would indicate a higher frequency than necessary for train arrivals, while "every week" and "every month" would imply a less frequent schedule, which would not be practical for regular train services.

The correct answer suggests that the two men expressed their dissatisfaction and unwillingness to tolerate the situation any longer.

Winnie wondered if everyone hated the Chinese. This suggests that she may have felt insecure or anxious about her identity and how she is perceived by others. She may have been concerned about facing discrimination or prejudice based on her Chinese ethnicity. This question highlights the theme of identity and the impact of societal attitudes on an individual's sense of belonging.

The Union Pacific would want to stir up trouble both to slow down the Central Pacific and to earn more money. By causing disruptions and delays for their competitor, the Union Pacific could potentially gain an advantage in the race to complete the transcontinental railroad. Additionally, stirring up trouble could create opportunities for the Union Pacific to negotiate better financial terms or secure additional funding for their own project.
