Read the excerpt from the riddle of the rosetta stone.

next to the statues and the head, the slab seems unimpressive at first glance. it is roughly the size of a tabletop—three feet nine inches long, two feet four and a half inches wide, and eleven inches thick. but many experts would say that this rather small piece of rock was more valuable than any of the larger objects in the room. for it is the famed rosetta stone, which gave nineteenth-century scholars their first key to the secrets of ancient egypt.

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.
