Authors write for many reasons. I think the key to Cisneros's purpose is in the narrator. In the House on Mango Street, the narrator is a young Latino girl, She describes her neighborhood and the people in it.  Most of them are down on their luck and struggling to make it in America,and most are hard-working immigrants. The main character, Esperanza, struggles with her own ideas of identity and success. She wants to have pride in her heritage, but she also wants to succeed and go beyond the limits of her neighborhood. Like every immigrant, she strives for the American dream.

In my opinion is more than a little autobiographical. when we consider the author's purpose, we should think of Esperanza's hopes and dreams and how Cisneros depicts them. I think she is reaching out to young Latino girls, to tell a good story, but she also hopes to serve as an inspiration. We all struggle, but somehow we can make it.

From 7:00 to 8:00, they wash up and <u><em>eat </em></u>breakfast.  At 8:00 in the morning, they <u><em>call </em></u>Ground Control in their countries. After they talk to Ground Control, their workday begins.  The astronauts <u><em>don't do</em></u> the same thing every day. Their schedules change every week. The astronauts do not work all the time.  Each day they <u><em>exercise </em></u>for an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon. After dinner, they <em>have </em>free time.  Then, it <u><em>is </em></u>time to go to sleep. Sometimes this <u><em>isn't </em></u>easy because the sun rises and sets 16 times each day on the space station!

Explanation:

All the verbs in the text are written in the Present Simple tense, since the paragraph refers to actions that are either facts or happen regularly at the International Space Station. Thus, the astronauts at the station have a program of daily routine actitivies.
