Answer:
The two lines from Passage 1 which suggest that the Statue of Liberty is a symbol of freedom and refuge are:
"Line 10: With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor..."
"Line 14: I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
Explanation:
Emma Lazarus wrote his poem titled "The New Colossus" (1883), where he depicted the Statue of Liberty as the "Mother of Exiles" and a refuge of freedom. Commissioned to raise funds for the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty, Emma's poem illustrated the Statue of Liberty as a welcoming symbol to all immigrants from around the world.
Correct answer: German troops became demoralized and eventually surrendered in the face of the arrival of fresh US troops.
The United States had been providing some support to the Allies prior to its own entry into the war. But when the US joined the effort fully with a declaration of war, that not only meant the arrival of fresh US troops but a commitment of even more American dollars to the Allies' war effort. The American commitment greatly boosted the morale of British and French troops on the Western front and demoralized the German troops.
As to the other answers ...
- Russia did pull out of the war, but that was because it went through a revolution and change of government in its own country, not because of American involvement. Russia's fight was with Germany on the Eastern front, whereas the US entered the war on the Western front.
- No, Mexico did not attack the United States -- although there had been a German diplomatic telegram that had suggested that as a possibility.
- Ottoman forces did their fighting in the Balkans and in the Middle East, and were not involved in the war on the Western front.
