Read the excerpt from "Opening Ceremonies of the New
York and Brooklyn Bridge" by Hon. Seth Low, Mayor of the
City of Brooklyn
What is the purpose of the subjective language in this
excerpt?
And yet it is distinctly an American triumph. American
genius designed it, American skill built it, and American
workshops made it. About 1837 the Screw Dock across the
river, then known as the Hydrostatic Lifting Dock, was built
In order to construct it the Americans of that day were
obliged to have the cylinders cast in England. What a stride
from 1837 to 1883--from the Hydrostatic Dock to the New
York and Brooklyn Bridge!
to remind the people of New Your City that they did not
build the bridge
to inspire the people of New York to build another bridge
soon
to thank the English for their help in earlier construction
projects
to make the people of New York feel pride in the
construction of the new bridge
