参考答案【正确答案：D】
文章第二段第2句“We divide newcomers into two categories: legal or illegal” （我们把新移民分为2类：合法和不合法移民）倒数第3句：“We need to look beyond strict definitions of legal and illegal，” (我们不需要合法和不合法移民这样严格的定义),文章最后一段最后1句“Including some that are not easy to accomplish legally in the existing system.”(包括一些现有体系中不容易合法完成的途径。）都反映合法和不合法的分类是错误的。故选D选项正确。
A项说短暂移民们的移动是个错误。与文意相反。B和C项都与文章无关。
