Read this excerpt from chapter 1 of The Scarlet Letter using comprehension strategies.In accordance with this rule, it may safely be assumed that the forefathers of Boston had built the first prison-house, somewhere in the vicinity of Cornhill, almost as seasonably as they marked out the first burial-ground, on Isaac Johnson's lot, and round about his grave, which subsequently became the nucleus of all the congregated sepulchres in the old church-yard of King's Chapel.

What is the meaning of this excerpt?

C.Just as Puritans gathered at the prison, they also gathered at the cemetery and the church.
D.The forefathers of Boston chose the two most famous landmarks: the prison and the cemetery.

Answers

A is the correct answer. It can be observed from the fact that the forefathers of Boston built both buildings that they were created early on in the city’s history. The cemetery’s expansion is clear from the subsequent congregation of sepulchres, or tomb monuments, around the grave of Isaac Johnson.
