Respuesta :

These lines help the readers to understand the character of the Statue of Liberty because C. She does not want the new immigrants ...

 

  • The words, penned by Emma Lazarus on the Statue of Liberty, celebrate the welcoming attitude of America towards immigrants from diverse places and cultures.

 

  • She only begs that the immigrants leave their cultures behind at their home countries so that they can embrace America and its culture of human freedom and liberty and as a land of opportunity that enables all to pursue happiness.

 

  • The lines do not mean that the Statue of Liberty (that is, the U.S.)
  1. Wants to ostracize the wealthy from the U.S.
  2. Is uninterested in the grandeur and riches of the immigrants' places of origin
  3. Believes that America's wealth is too sufficient

 

Thus, the Statue of Liberty proclaims that America is a land of freedom and liberty, which does not require the old culture of bondage, feudalism, and limited opportunities, which does not allow innovation.
