Answer:

anyone who comes to America

Step-by-step explanation:

okay, this was slightly less challenging for me because I already know what exile/exiles mean, but anyways:

as an american, it's been drilled into my head how america is the place for dreams and new opportunities and all that cr.ap, so the statue of liberty is geared towards the exiled, and people who want a better life, the very definition of what we've been taught an immigrant is. Also, none of the other options make sense

hope this helps:)
