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
Answer:
Second response "to entertain"
The excerpt isn't persuading the audience to speak out or tell others about censorship, nor is it informing us about censorship. The excerpt includes a comparison of tortillas and poetry, not motivation to speak against censorship.
Answer:
A persuade
Explanation:
I got c wrong (entertain) because of the other person who answered this but I'm pretty sure it's persuade if not d but d (motivate) is less likely then A

Once there lived a horrible mother who treated her child named Ella awfully, she always wanted someone to love her. But she was trapped in a attic, (which was her room). There was absolutely no possible way on earth she could ever get out of there. She was lonely everyday on those nights when the star shimmered so bright, oh how she would wish to get out of this horrible dreadful place. The attic she lived in had dusty mud colored walls that had spider webs all over and cockroaches that flew and crawled around.
Since those awful creatures were the only thing she could socialize with she did. She would hold them lightly on her hand and sing a song her dad sang after he had passed away. She would cry to sleep on the dusty loose floors everyday night.
But one day she was exploring the attic to see if there was anything she could use to not be bored, and she found a vent that would lead to the outside world. So, she broke open the vent with a piece of wood and she crawled out through another vent. Finally, she found light and saw latters to climb of. She was outside but how would she get down? It was so awfully high, she found latters to Climb down of. she jumped down and saw a little boy, and she ran to him and said "Hey, would you like to be my friend and play?"
The was answered and said yes, he invited her to his home and then locked the door fast. He tied her up and took off a mask, he wasn't a little boy, he was a man! The girl was trapped there and never to be seen again...

One of the purest relationships is the relationship of friendship. A person without a friend lives a hard life. Everybody needs a companion to deal with our experience. It is dependent upon you that how you define friendship. It can be sharing your food, taking care of that person, supporting them in their thick and thin. You may not be loud about it, but if you care for a person silently, that is what friendship is. Friendship is about laughing together on small things, cherishing every moment you share, standing together for each other even when the world turns their backs towards them.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Friendships are sometimes more durable than the relationship of love. Even though the definition of friendship varies from person to person, the core meaning behind it is the same for everybody. Life is empty without a friend. So when you gain a true friend, make sure you cherish it with all your heart. The person with a real friend, with whom all the things can be shared, are the luckiest in the world. A friend will never judge you, and they will never stop scolding you if you are wrong. But whatever the situation be, they will always be there to support you.
