Read the excerpt from rudolfo anaya’s essay “take the tortillas out of your poetry.”

tortillas and poetry. they go hand in hand. books nourish the spirit, bread nourishes our bodies. our distinct cultures nourish each one of us, and as we know more and more about the art and literature of the different cultures, we become freer and freer. .

i don’t know anyone who doesn’t like to sample different ethnic foods, the breads of many many groups; just as many of us enjoy sampling books from different areas of the world. i travel to foreign countries, and i know more about myself as i learn more about my fellow human beings. censorship imposes itself in my path of knowledge, and that activity can be justified by no one.

which choice best describes the purpose of this text?
to persuade readers to oppose the censorship of literature
to inform readers about censorship in a specific country
to entertain readers with stories about censorship
to motivate readers to speak out against censorship

Rudolfo Anaya , a Mexican Chicano writer, in this essay  wants to motivate readers to speak out against censorship

to motivate readers to speak out against censorship is the right version.

The writer adheres to multiculturalism and he does not agree with censorship. He suffered from it ;his works had been banned because he had mixed words in Spanish and in English. In this essay, he says he cannot find any justification for censorship. As a matter of fact, he thinks that poets and writers will know themselves better if they appreciate different cultures. He refers to different dishes and different books to support his claim. He invites the readers to associate the free choice of food and books with the idea of freedom.

These statements are wrong:

-to persuade readers to oppose the censorship of literature.  Amaya is against censorship in general; he does not set the focus only on literature.

-to inform readers about censorship in a specific country. He does not give any specific information; he talks about censorship in general.

-to entertain readers with stories about censorship. He has not written a narrative ; he has written an argument.

- "despite the fact that portia lives in belmont and has many suitors, bassanio believes that he can win her heart. bassanio plans on overcoming his financial obstacles by borrowing money from antonio to travel to belmont. he then plans on marrying portia and becoming wealthy enough to pay off his debts."
