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 the excerpts are similar?
Each presents factual evidence to appeal to the reader's logic.
Each documents career credentials to appeal to the reader's ethics.
Each discusses a friend to appeal to the reader's sense of community.
Each relates an anecdote to appeal to the reader's emotions.
