A commonly efficient way to do so is by establishing your own credibility concerning the subject. That is what Anaya is doing in this excerpt. He gets to talk about language and culture in American literature, and be taken seriously while doing it, due to his credibility as a published Chicano author.

Seems to me that the second option looks as if it were correct. While paraphrasing and summarizing, you are trying to shorten up an original piece of writing. Giving a well developed descriptions of main ideas isn't something to look for in paraphrasing, so that's why the first option is incorrect. In addition, restating basically everything from a text is not called paraphrasing nor summarizing, and that is why I'd rather classify it as copying.
It would be the last one I believe since it might be last tense
