1. PART A. Read this section from the text and the directions that follow.
Until now, the Dream movement, even when it was growing, has not always been visible, because of the constant risk that people without legal immigration status could pay for activism with the high price of deportation. The Dream Act, a bill providing a pathway to citizenship for young undocumented immigrants, from which the Dreamers take their name, was first introduced in Congress in 2001. But for years it languished unnoticed with little popular support.
But every Dreamer has a moment, generally toward the end of high school, when he or she first confronts the hard limitations of being undocumented in America. Often it comes when they want a driver’s license, financial aid for college or a first real job. Before DACA, the barriers could become insurmountable, forcing young people to recede into the low-paying limbo of the shadow economy. And about a decade ago, as a large generation of undocumented youth came of age, many of them started to reject the constraints, and a movement began to take shape.
What is the central idea of the section?
The Dream Act went into effect because undocumented immigrants are a threat.
The Dream Act, after put into action, went unnoticed because of the risk it presented to undocumented immigrants but then later took larger effect.
The Dream Act was first introduced in Congress in 2001.
The Dream act immediately took effect and changed the lives of all the undocumented youth that came of age.

Based on this quote from the article, what can we infer is the central idea of Section C?
