How does the author’s word choice convey the tone of “The New Colossus”?

English
1 answer:
Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

"The New Colossus"

The way the author's word choice convey the tone of "The New Colossus"

The idealistic tone in the New Colossus was buttressed with words and phrases like “Give me, ... yearning to be free, I lift my lamp, etc.”  With such words and phrases, the author asserted that the Statue of Liberty, which he described as the New Colossus, had spread her arms to welcome immigrants from Europe.

Explanation:

With the Statue of Liberty, the United States symbolically welcomed immigrants and offered them freedom, opportunity, and hope.  Comparing the Statue of Liberty to the ancient Greek Colossus of Rhodes, the poet Emma Lazarus (1883) presented this "New Colossus" as a patroness of immigrants rather than a show of military might.

Answer:

Dear Ms.Yang,

Greetings, this morning I have received my package from the exclusive skateboard sale at 10:30 AM, I wasn't as excited to see when I opened the box it revealed a broken skateboard. In that case, I will be doing following; returning the broken skateboard, be requesting in this letter to receive a new unbroken skateboard in the mail, and finally be requesting an apology letter from you regarding the broken skateboard. I spent at-least two hundred and fifty-five dollars on this BROKEN skateboard and will highly expect a new one.

Write a letter to your brother in another region of your country informing him about the latest news at home
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Dear brother.

First of all, I would like to say that we all miss you so much and hope that we can see each other soon.

I am writing this letter to tell you the news here at home, nothing bad has happened, but I want to tell you the latest events to make you feel closer to home.

First news: We have a dog! I'll put pictures of him in the wrapping so you can see how cute he is. He is a black Labrador and is very intelligent and cute. We were all very happy with his presence, except for our cat, Sally, who still doesn't like her new friend very much.

Mom is doing another renovation in the house, this time she decided to renovate the living room. She wants to make the room more compact to enlarge the kitchen. When you come to visit, the house will be completely different, but your room will be kept the same, although I asked Mom to stay with it.

Grandma will live with us next month. She is fine, but needs more frequent care, she will stay there in Josh's room, while Josh will move into the old garage.

As you can see, we are all doing well and making changes in our home and in our lives. I hope you are happy too.

P.S. Daddy is building a house for the dog. We haven't chosen his name yet. Suggestions?

With love,

Lili.

agasfer [191]
The correct answer is change they're to their.
The words they're stand for = they are, whereas the pronoun their shows some kind of possession. So, whose way? Their way. Not they are way. The other options are incorrect as TO is spelled correctly, there means that you are pointing to something, and two is a number.
