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”

This  will require high levels of literacy and especially a wide vocabulary in English. Reading gives learners  more exposure to their additional language, we know this from research that children's vocabulary  development is heavily dependent on the amount of reading they do.

Read the excerpt from Keesha’s essay about Labrador retrievers.

Everyone seems to have a favorite breed of dog, but the Labrador retriever, with its many skills and natural friendliness, has always had a special place in my heart. Labradors are widely regarded as highly intelligent and loyal. Because of their personality, they are often valued as great family dogs. My uncle owns a Labrador, and it’s the friendliest dog I’ve ever met. Because he is such a friendly dog, we often take him to the dog park. But the most fascinating thing about Labradors is their hunting skills.
What sentence in this paragraph is unnecessary?
A. "Labradors are known to be highly intelligent and loyal."
B. "Because of their personality, they are often valued as great family dogs."
C. "Because he is such a friendly dog, we often take him to the dog park."

This is the typical way for an analogy to be read. Something is to something as another thing is to another thing.

For example:

rifle is to guns as sabre is to swords.

Essentially, a specific is to general, and is used for both. Rifle is a specific type of gun, and gun is the generalization. Sabre is a specific type of sword, and sword is the generalization.
