Read the excerpt from “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry.” 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.

Which best explains how Anaya’s tone establishes his voice in the excerpt?
Anaya’s tone is humorous, which reflects his desire to highlight the topic.
Anaya’s tone is easy-going, which reflects his lack of concern about the topic.
Anaya’s tone is passionate, which reflects his strong feelings about the topic.
Anaya’s tone is joyful, which reflects his determination to celebrate the topic.
