Question: 266

3. According to the passage, the Statue of Liberty symbolizes

I. democracy

II. freedom

III. international friendship

IV. a treaty between the United States and France

  • A. I only
  • B. II only
  • C. I and III only
  • D. I, II, and III only

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

D is correct. As stated in the first paragraph, the Statue was a gift to the people of the United States “in recognition of the friendship established between the two nations during the American Revolution.” Over the years, however, “the Statue of Liberty has come to symbolize freedom and democracy as well as this international friendship.” There is no mention in the passage of a treaty between the United States and France.
