What is the tallest gift received by the United States? Located in New York Harbor,the 152-foot Statue of Liberty was a gift of international friendship from the people of France to the people of the United States. An inspiration to millions of immigrants,this statue is a universal symbol of freedom,democracy,and diplomacy.
The relationship between the United States and France began during America's quest for in?dependence from Great Britain in 1776. Benjamin Franklin was among those who served on the diplomatic front during the Revolutionary War. By living in Paris as the American ambassador,Benjamin cultivated a relationship with the French government and the French people. As a re?sult,French soldiers fought alongside the American colonists. Paris was the site for peace nego?tiations between the United States and Great Britain at the end of the war.
In 1865,Edourd de Laboulaye of France developed the idea of creating a giant statue to honor the friendship and the commitment to liberty between France and the United States. He formed the French-American Union to raise money for this project. Joseph Pulitzer used the edi?torial pages of his newspaper to raise support in the United States for the fund. French sculptor Auguste Bartholdi and structural engineer Gustave Eiffel finished the project in Paris,and the French people presented it to the people of America on July 4,1884. The statue was then shipped across the Atlantic in 214 boxes broken into 350 individual separate pieces. The Statue of Liberty was dedicated on October 28,1886,and President Grover Cleveland accepted the statue on behalf of the American people.
Ellis Island,which was the arrival point for European immigrants,is part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument. Between 1892 and 1924,more than 22 million passengers saw the Statue of Liberty as they passed through Ellis Island and the Port of New York. This landmark of freedom became a National Monument in 1924 and a major tourist attraction in the 20th cen?tury.

August 23rd is a blue day for me. When I look back on the day,I can't help feeling depressive.
At 7：00 a.m., the scream from my alarm clock forced me to open my eyes. The room was in gloom. It was raining outside. How comfortable it would be if I could stay in my bed for the whole day,listening to the sound of rain and enjoying laziness. But it was time to get up to prepare breakfast for my husband. He was supposed to attend an important meeting at 8 ：00. I spent 5 minutes pushing me into the kitchen. Who knows the terrible day began at this moment.
When I turned on the tap,there was no water out. I was confused. Suddenly,I remembered the hateful notice posted on the building's entrance about a temporary water outage in the morning. I forgot it because of returning late from a birthday party. I searched all the water containers in the kitchen. There was no sufficient water for my husband's clean,least cooking food. It was 7:20. I have no time to waste. I called a friend living in next building for some water. Under her help,my husband finally had gone for the meeting on time. Sighs,I thought that I could go to bed to continue my dream.
In the dark and silent bedroom,I was quickly back in my dream of last night―fighting against a mosquito,which had been buzzing around and I tried unsuccessfully to hit it again and again. The mosquito was so shrewd to escape,but I finally won the fight. All of a sudden,I was waked by furious knocks at my door. I rushed to the door but slipped down and hit the ground heavily. The horrible pain in my right leg and ankle attacked me over all so that I couldn't stand up and move. At this moment,I was shocked by a horrible screen. I was lying in water. All rooms were in water,2 inches deep,like a swimming pool. Hearing the sounds from taps,I realized that I left the taps on when I went to bed. What a stupid mistake!My leg hurt like hell,but I tried to move bit by bit to the door. I opened the door before I was totally exhausted. My neighbor switched off all taps and called the ambulance. In hospital,the X-ray showed that my leg was broken. Tears continuously ran down. I felt painful and lonely. I couldn't reach my husband,for he stopped his cellular phone during the meeting. At supper time,I finally saw him in the hospital. So I prayed along with my husband to end the unlucky day soon.
Every time,I flash back the blue day,I highly appreciate my neighbor who helped me out. So I am convinced that even if you encounter a blue day,you can surely find some spots sparking in your mind.
( ) 1. The writer's room was covered by water because .
A. the water pipe was broken during the night
B. her neighbor broke the water pipe by chance

( ) 2. The underlined word "furious" in the 4th paragraph is closest in meaning to
