Consider the title of the poem. How do the differences between the Statue of Liberty and the Colossus "of Greek fame” (mentioned

in line 1) develop the overall meaning of the poem? Cite evidence from the poem in your answer.
Not like the brazen1 giant of Greek fame,2


With conquering limbs astride from land to land;


Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand


A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame


Is the imprisoned lightning,3 and her name


Mother of Exiles.4 From her beacon-hand


Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command


The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.


“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!”5 cries she


With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,


Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,


The wretched refuse6 of your teeming shore.


Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost7 to me,

The phrase: "the brazen giant of Greek Fame" refers to the Colossus of Rhodes, one of the seven wonders of the Ancient World. This was a statue of the Greek sun-god Helios, and was erected in the island of Rhodes, in Greece. The poet describes the colossus as having "conquering limbs," and contrasts this to the more welcoming and kind image of the Statue of Liberty. The poem presents the lady as "Mother of Exiles," and highlights her role in welcoming people who are struggling and suffering.

How does the use of an informal writing style best help
maxonik [38]

<u>It helps the writers visualize the inside of a black hole. </u>

<em>The other options can described bluntly and scientifically with just names and numbers. </em>

If the writer were to use more formal writing to describe things so abstract like a black hole, it would be hard for the common reader to understand.

____________________________

for example,

The black hole looks like a giant vacuum of nothingness (informal)

The black hole is like a mass whose Schwarzchild radius is outside of itself (formal)

Which is easier to understand? Most likely the first one because of the use of informal language and writing.

Hope I helped!
