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.

mcarc09

The structural element that is used in the excerpt by Anaya but not in the excerpt by Nye is logos, as stated in option D and further explained below.

What is logos?

Logos, also known as logical appeal or appeal to logic, is a type of rhetorical device. It is the use of logic and reasoning to convince one's audience of something. That means the writer or speaker will provide arguments in a logical order so that he or she can lead the audience to a certain conclusion.

After reading the excerpts, we can see that Anaya uses logos, but Nye does not use that structural element. With that in mind, we can choose option D as the correct answer.

The missing answer choices for this question are the following:

  • pathos
  • anecdote
