What is one promise you make when you become a United States citizen?
AGive up loyalty to other countries
BJoin one of the two main parties
CPay a special tax every year
DGive up your first language
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Give up loyalty to other countries
1. New citizens make several promises during naturalization.
2. One of them is to give up loyalty to other countries.
3. The others are to defend the Constitution and laws of the United States, to obey those laws, to serve in the military or do important work for the nation if needed, and to be loyal to the United States.
4. Nothing in the promise touches language, so giving up a first language is never required.
