How The Statue Of Liberty Was Created It was an early saturday morning. Jill was on her way to work, she had to walk about two miles through downtown New York City to get to her work. On her way to work she would always pick up pennies off of the ground and she would save them. So that day at work it was going really slow so she took the jar of pennies and started to count them, after about an hour she was almost done counting them. So that night she brought them home and found more pennies at home. The next day Jill was thinking about what she could do with them, so Jill then called up her friend Richard and asked him what she should do with all of the pennies she has. Richard said “well if I were you I would bring them to the bank.” Jill
The Statue of Liberty was first thought of in 1865 by Professor Edouard de Laboulaye in France as a monument of Americas newly founded freedom. It was mentioned at a dinner party where the Sculptor of the statue Frederic Auguste Bartholdi was to design. This monument is over 100 years old, stands at 305 feet, and has a total weight of 225 tons and as you can imagine the building of this massive statue took many different materials, a lot of site planning, and over two decades to complete it. Many materials were used in building the Statue of Liberty. These materials are concrete for the base of the statue, Copper for the exterior of the statue, wrought-iron for the bars that would hold the copper in place, glass for the windows in the crown, and then steel for the inside skeletal framework. In this statue there is 31 tons of copper, and 125 tons in the framework, because of this much work went into determining what materials were going to be used to build the statue. The reasons they had to put so much work into determining what materials they were going to use is because they came to an agreement with America. America was building the base while the statue itself would be built in France then shipped to America and assembled there. Since they came to this agreement the statue would have to be shipped from France to America and if the statue was too heavy the boat would have obviously sunk. So they thought of many materials they could use such as bronze and stone until they

Father and I arrived in New York two months ago. The city seemed so beautiful compared to the dull sea we had just traveled. The passage here took 20 days and was very tedious. We were in the steerage where it was extremely crowded, and had horrible conditions. We got barely any food, it was worse than Dublin. Just after we left from Liverpool, I knew it was going to be a horrible journey. That passage made all the excitement of America go away, only to be renewed when we saw land. The “Statue of Liberty” was the first thing we saw and everyone came on deck and started celebrating, because we knew we were one step closer to freedom.
How would you feel if you drove twenty four hours or more to see a statue or a monument that you always wanted to see and someone turns you around? My brothers and I drove to New York to see The Statue of Liberty and the workers there told us that you have to make reservations to see the statue up close and personal. Certain statues are so old, so fragile, and so powerful with the message they tell that preserving the statue is the only way it will continue to stand. The Lafayette’s Alfred Mouton statue is a statue with many different meanings and it should stay up and tell the message it was built to tell.

I spotted Mr. Hardy cleaning I walked up to him and asked “How many times have you been accused for cheating money.” He said, “ I have no idea what you are talking about.” I was now very interested so I walked out of the shop and into a farm field and asked a farmer named Mr. Noble that was trying to shoot rabbits,” Do you know about Mr. Hardly and if he has ever cheated you and your money.” He said, “ Yes, I know that Mr. Hardly will try to sneak a few cents into his pocket when he thinks you aren't looking. He claims he has bad math when you catch him but I

Immediately I knew that this was going to be a bad character. He failed to steal the purse ,and because of it he got beat up. He got kicked “right in his blue jeaned sitter.” The women took Roger and started dragging him somewhere. Roger though he was gonna go to jail. He pleaded the women not to take him to jail. She ignored him and continued walking. Roger started to get really nervous. After a little while he wound up in an apartment building. The women kept walking down hallways. Roger could here people beyond the doors. Then the women walked through a door and she told him that she lived here. Roger blew a sigh of relief. The women sat him down at a table. The women asked him why he tried to steal the purse. Roger thought he had to lie to get out of this. The women was too smart for that. Roger told the women that he just wanted some blue suede shoes. They talked for awhile. Then the women got up and got something out of her kitchen. When she left Roger had an easy escape and could grab the pocketbook he tried to steal earlier. Instead he sat back down and waited for the women. When she came back she had a cake. They shared the cake together. After that, Roger had to leave. The women gave him 20 dollars so he could buy his blue suede shoes. After that Roger went down the steps. He turned around and said “Thank you ma’am.” The women made him become a nicer person and learn some

These pieces were packed in 214 crates. Engineers and builders put the statue back together
Another demonstration of corruption is between Evey and the bishop. V plans for Evey to disguise herself as a young religious girl and to get in contact with the bishop. While the bishop attends to Evey, he suggests to do a religious activity and directs her to a bedroom. Wary of the bishop’s actions, Evey distracts him until he interrupts, “Now take off your clothes please...Oh nevermind, allow me to” (Moore 53). The bishop is associated with religious authority, meaning that he has power in the church. The irony is that he is supposed to be practicing ethics, considering the religious aspects that he involves himself in. However, the bishop nearly sexually harassed Evey, which is against the common knowledge of religious authority. The victims
In the beginning of the poem it says, "Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame." This means that the Statue of Liberty isn't like the Statue of Colossus because the Statue of Colossus refers to a military victory and the Statue of Liberty refers to freedom. Then from lines 3-6 the poem means that New York Harbor is where the Statue of Liberty is in, and that she is a tall and mighty woman holding a torch. On lines 6-14 the poem means that the statue welcomes exiles, the homeless, and the people who wants to be free from England's rule to
