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 phrase from the excerpt best helps the reader identify the author's purpose?
"
I know more about myself as I learn more about my fellow human beings"
"
I don't know anyone who doesn't like to sample different ethnic foods"
"
many of us enjoy sampling books from different areas of the world"
"
we know more and more about the art and literature of the different cultures"

(6) therefore, we often find volcanoes and earthquakes along plate boundaries. (7) plates may also collide. (8) when that happens, mountain ranges are formed.
