Answer:

She most likely included this passage to explain her viewpoint on the wonders and the joys of reading.

Explanation:

The passage from "I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings" by Maya Angelou is from the scene where Marguerite Johnson had been invited over by Mrs. Flowers at her home. There, Mrs. Flowers had taught and even made her read, while having cookies. She also read "A Tale of Two Cities" which the narrator finds enchanting, for she states that

"<em>She was nearly singing. I wanted to look at the pages. Were  they the same that I had read? Or were there notes, music,  lined on the pages, as in a hymn book? Her sounds began cascading gently</em>"

This passage was likely included for the author has just learned and experienced the joys of reading. And she wanted her readers to also have the same experience, or rather she wanted to explain to the readers about her viewpoint on the wonders of reading.
