Explanation:

In "A Quilt of a Country", Anna Quindlen focuses on the United States' diversity (different ethnicities, backgrounds) and how despite these differences, the country comes together as one nation, especially in times of adversity. Option A is incorrect as the main message isn't about being different from other countries. Option B, while the US has the equality ideal, the central message is about unity in diversity. Option C captures the idea of a diverse nation being united.

Answer:

C. It is amazing that a country made up of such diverse people can be united as one nation.
