Reading the passage
Stay out of our affairs. That's the nationalists' objection to the United States: it was intervening in Mexican labor disputes. We need that stated position, not another plausible concern about the relationship between the countries.
Working the answers
- ACorrect
Paragraph 2 describes nationalism as opposing U.S. interference in Mexican labor conflicts at the time. Opposition to involvement in internal Mexican affairs restates that objection.
- B
Emigration means leaving a country. Nothing here describes a wish to reduce Mexican workers' movement to the United States. Labor disputes aren't the same issue as migration.
- C
Wanting the United States to stop intervening doesn't establish a desire to compete with it economically. We aren't given that goal.
- D
The later painting contrasts American industry with agricultural Mexico. That doesn't give Mexican nationalists generally this stated position on rapid industrialization.
- E
Kahlo was influenced by Marxism, but we aren't told that these nationalists wanted a Soviet-style government. Don't transfer one artist's influence to the entire group or add an unmentioned governmental model.
