In the context of the immigrants' professions, which statement is validly concluded?

  1. Most immigrants were all engineers

  2. Only nurses were represented among immigrant professionals

  3. Some immigrants worked as engineers and nurses

  4. No immigrants were working as librarians

The correct answer is: Some immigrants worked as engineers and nurses

The conclusion that some immigrants worked as engineers and nurses is valid because it acknowledges the diversity within the immigrant workforce. This option recognizes that immigrants often occupy a range of professions, including both engineering and nursing, reflecting the varied skills and qualifications that individuals bring as they move to new countries. In contrast to the other statements, which make broad generalizations or limitations, this conclusion correctly captures the reality that not all immigrants fit into a single category or profession. It avoids the pitfalls of suggesting exclusivity, as seen in the first two statements, and also rejects an unfounded assertion about the absence of librarians in the workforce. By stating that some immigrants worked in these professions, it accurately represents the multifaceted nature of immigrant contributions.
