Practice one SAT question at a time

Questions come from the Bluebook question bank.

While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:

  • A small number of US Navy sailors of Filipino descent served during the US Civil War (1861–1865).
  • Stephen Amos was born in the Philippines around 1830.
  • He enlisted in the US Navy in November 1863.
  • Raphael Ignases was born in the Philippines around 1834.
  • He enlisted in the US Navy in July 1861.

The student wants to emphasize the historical significance of Stephen Amos’s enlistment date. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
