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?
O 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.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D). Each relates an anecdote to appeal to the reader's emotions.

Explanation:

The given two excerpts from 'Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry' and 'Speaking Arabic' are similar in structures as 'they both include an anecdote in order to persuade the readers.' In the former, Anaya describes how 'her friend removed his cultural values from his poetry that eventually led to the taking out the entire essence and soul of his poetry.' While in the latter, Nye denotes his neighborhood experience where he found a man saying that he feels alone without having a heritage. Overall, the two excerpts aim to convince the readers emotionally to understand the significance of cultural values and heritage. Thus, option D is the correct answer.

Which two sentences in the passage describe Leila's good study habits?
Leila has midterms coming up in three weeks, so she made a study plan that lists her priorities to help her prepare. Leila's social calendar is so full that she has very little time to study on weekdays, which she hopes to make up for by studying on the weekend. She plans to spend six hours every weekend studying in the library. Leila justifies not taking time out to study on weekdays by telling herself that she needs to have other interests. She hopes that studying for long periods without a break will help her learn all the important class material.

Answers

Answer:

1.) Leila has midterms coming up in three weeks, so she made a study plan that lists her priorities to help her prepare

2.) She plans to spend six hours every weekend studying in the library

Explanation:

From the passage, we could infer that Leila is also the social type and attends a lot of social events, this could be culled from where it was said that her social calendar is full and as such has not time to study on weekdays. However, she was able to carve out two study habits from the passage ;

1.) Making a study plan that list her priorities that could aid her preparation.

2.) Her plan to spend 6 hours every weekend studying in the library.

Listening to several people talk at once left Jerrod in a
state of confusion
What does the word "state" mean in the sentence?
A.) declaration
B.) a condition of the mind
C.) central government
D.) social status

Answers

Answer: B) Condition of mind

Explanation: Looking at the sentence, we can right off the bat eliminate central government (C) and social status (D). These make no sense when applying them to the sentence. Moving onto A) declaration. In order for this to work, Jerrod would have had to declare his state of confusion, internally or out loud (which he does not). This leaves us with B). Knowing that Jerrod is feeling confused, and knowing that confusion can be a state your mind can be in, we have our answer.

Hope this helps!
