They began settling there in the late 1800s, first to work as peddlers（小贩）and later to work in factories.Today the town is home to one of the largest Syrian populations in the U.S. Its also a destination for newer arrivals refugees fleeing the ongoing crisis in Syria. But Allentown residents dont agree on whether the town should welcome more of them._The first stop for many Syrians arriving in Allentown is a neighborhood of flat-fronted row homes called the 6th Ward, which is home to Syrian restaurants and grocery stores.Thats where Radwan Jarrouj landed in 1962. Hes active in local Syrian groups, and he tried to persuade Allentown to accept the refugees. However, he says he remembers Sept. 11 and empathizes with politicians who have grown anxious over welcoming more refugees.“Proceed with caution,” Jarrouj suggests.Most of the old Syrian families in Allentown are from the Christian minority and support Syrian President Bashar Assad, while some of the people arriving now have fled the violence under his power.An Emphasis On ScreeningThe checking process for refugees takes an average of two years and involves investigating applicants stories and cross-checking whether any physical evidence ties them to terrorist groups.But after the Paris attacks, some local politicians, including Pennsylvania Sen. Pat Toomey, say it needs to get even tougher.

And while there has been a national push to slow the pace of arrivals, Allentown Mayor Ed Pawlowski, and Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf both say they trust the checking process and will welcome more refugees.58. What is mainly discussed in the text? A. The reason why Syrians immigrate to Allentown. B.
