Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In the 19th - century, job opportunities like work on the railroads in the United States were a major pull - factor for Chinese immigrants. Religious freedom was not a main pull - factor for them. Acceptance was not high as they faced discrimination. Famine was a push - factor. For the second part, in the 1800s, Chinese immigrants faced laws that severely limited entry, which was not the case for European immigrants. Language barriers, cultural differences, and nativist sentiments were also challenges but the laws were a more significant and unique limitation.

Answer:

  1. work on the railroads
  2. laws that severely limited entry
