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.

Answer:

They may have inspired the author to make August's character strong enough to face the challenges of a new school with the loving support of his family.

Explanation:

The children's novel <em>Wonder </em>by Raquel Jaramillo tells the story of a physically deformed boy August "Auggie" Pullman. The whole plot revolves around his deformity and how he began to accept what he really is, despite the deformity. The story also delves into his relationship with his best friend Jack and his sister Olivia's frustration in having to sacrifice her needs to her brother's needs.

In Natalie Merchant's song <em>Wonder</em>, she sings about a girl who will make her way <em>"with love, with patience, and with faith"</em>. These very words may have inspired the author to make the young boy Auggie's character strong enough to be able to overcome the challenges that he will face in the new school. Added to that, the support of his loving family members, even his own sister Olivia will also help him face the challenges.

Answer:

Part A. Noel seems like an annoyed character. He seemed happy that James stopped talking.

Part B. for Part B, I would say that the text in E would support saying that he was annoyed. (" The boys had grown tired of hearing her exclaim". That shows that he was starting to get annoyed.) And lastly I think that H would also agree that he was annoyed because he seemed to start going on about why this puppy might be here.
