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.

Explanation:

In the first excerpt, Rudolfo Anaya presents a case of his friend who decided to 'remove' his heritage, his Latin background just to get accepted for a scholarship. And in this act, Anaya observes that his friend "took out his native language, the poetic patois of our reality . . . took the soul out of his poetry." This shows his analysis of what he saw and thinks is happening, giving his opinion.

On the other hand, Naomi Shihab Nye structures "Speaking Arabic" as an observation of what she saw. She describes the young man's declaration of wanting a heritage among the "tall America trees" while in a Texas fair in between the "German Oom-pah Sausage Stand and the Mexican Gorditas booth". The excerpt is an observation of what she saw at that time and place.

Thus, the correct answer is that Anaya structures his excerpt as an analysis while Nye's is an observation.

the author is intending to draw attention to the plight of refugees, editorial and biography support this. both workpieces make the reader empathize with enrique as well as with the other young migrants from central america. the writer, however, is using a different approach to each text.

the editorial includes strong words to persuade readers. he is trying hard to convince readers in the us to change its refugee approach.

the biography relies on narrative techniques and figurative language which the writer uses wisely in the setting, characterization, and personification to educate readers on the topic.
