Question
The passage suggests that in 1968 Henry Cisneros most likely believed that:
Options:
A .  Many Mexican Americans would respond positively to the example of Benito Juarez
B .  Many Mexican Americans were insufficiently educated in Mexican history
C .  The fight for civil rights in the United States had many strong parallels in both Mexican and Irish history
D .  The quickest way of organizing community-based groups was to emulate the tactics of Benito Juarez
Answer: Option A
:
A
If we look at the lines “Like European ethnic groups in the nineteenth-century United States, late-twentieth-century Mexican American leaders combined ethnic with contemporary civic symbols. In 1968, Henry Cisneros, then mayor of San Antonio, Texas, cited Mexican leader Benito Juarez as a model for Mexican Americans in their fight for contemporary civil rights”, it is evident that Henry Cisneros cited Benito Juarez as a model because he believed that many Mexican Americans would respond positively to his example. This is the most obvious reason behind citing any example. Therefore, answer option (a) is the most appropriate answer choice.
