Answer:
Gale Eaton claims that not all, of Marco Polo's voyages, may be fraudulent as a result of revisions made by copyists and translators. Eaton's point of view is one with which I agree. Eaton reported that while imprisoned in Genoa, Polo recounted his experiences with another individual, according to Eaton. Polo's stories were going to be a best-seller, thanks to the efforts of a fellow prisoner. Someone interested in gaining popularity would embellish events or leave out specific aspects to ensure that the book was marketable and that people would continue to buy and read it. During this period, there was a race to discover new things as well as a race to accumulate wealth. Copiers would want to add decorations to the mix to keep the frenzy going.

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.

From the text, we can infer that Twain is describing the people of the town through his description. The young men are lazy, and the town is strewn together. The stores have little to offer, and the people have nothing with which to pay. A number of homes have been abandoned, others were inhabited and dangerous to live in.
