Read the excerpt from enrique’s journey. enrique’s head throbs. the sun reflects off the metal. it stings his eyes, and his skin tingles. it drains the little energy he has left. he moves around the car, chasing patches of shade. for a while, he stands on a narrow ledge at the end of a fuel tanker. it is just inches above the wheels. he cannot let himself fall asleep; one good shake of the train, and he would tumble off. what is the author’s purpose in this biography excerpt? to tell when and where the story takes place to explain how difficult it is to travel in some climates to show how dangerous it is to leave honduras to introduce the main character and describe his traits

to show how dangerous it is to leave Honduras

Explanation:

As we can see in the text above, the main character is traveling in an extremely uncomfortable and dangerous way that puts his life at risk very easily. This paragraph was written in this way to show the reader how difficult, exhausting, terrifying and dangerous it was to leave Honduras. This gives the reader a justification for the reason that makes the character act the way he does. This is because if the character submits to a situation as dangerous as leaving Honduras towards another region, it is because the character's life in Honduras was very bad, it is better to risk his life leaving Honduras, than to remain in the unsatisfactory life that Honduras had to offer.
