Part A Which of the following statements best expresses the author’s opinion of the poems discovered at Angel Island? A. The poems are well written and use sophisticated techniques. B. The style of the poems is too old-fashioned, but the imagery is beautiful. C. The ideas and feelings explored in the poems are interesting, but the poems are not well written. D. The poems are artifacts that reveal the history of Angel Island, not truly poetry in the traditional sense. Part B Which quotation from "The Writing on the Wall" best supports the answer to Part A? A. The Chinese immigrants, in particular, raised with a tradition of public poetry, composed carefully crafted verses that drew on Classical traditions, forms, and allusions. B. The poets held at the Angel Island Immigration Station were partaking of a centuries-old tradition, creating a camaraderie far beyond the confines of the walls they found themselves isolated inside. C. Here we are, at least 60 years after this poem was penned, with a man from a different country, reading this lonely man's words and sharing them with people who have come to read them. D. Because so many of the poets actually spoke to each other in their "posts," we know that the poems mattered to the people to whom they were addressed at the time.

Read the excerpts from “take the tortillas out of your poetry” and “speaking arabic.” my friend had concluded that if he took his language and culture out of his poetry, he stood a better chance of receiving a fellowship. he took out his native language, the poetic patois of our reality, the rich mixture of spanish, english, pachuco and street talk which we know so well. in other words, he took the tortillas out of his poetry, which is to say he took the soul out of his poetry. at a neighborhood fair in texas, somewhere between the german oom-pah sausage stand and the mexican gorditas booth, i overheard a young man say to his friend, “i wish i had a heritage. sometimes i feel—so lonely for one.” and the tall american trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head. which best states how the structures of both excerpts support ideas about cultural diversity? each incorporates non-english words. each incorporates academic words. each incorporates offensive words. each incorporates nonsense words.
