The correct option is 2)Argumentative: In an argumentative text you discuss a subject or problem from different perspectives. At this time, Anna Quindlen the author of "A quilt of a country" states that although the great diversity found in America creates a lot of problems in the cities, it also serves as a quality to make America more special, and for this she uses a literature metaphor: Quilt, to put into other perspective her intention in the text. Although the author recurs to real episodes happend in America It's not autobiografical because doesn't talk about a particular person's life. It's not fictional because most of information is based on real facts, although uses literature metaphors to make the idea clearer.

Answer:
I imagine It may be difficult for only children to understand the kind of brotherly relationship that includes both devoted love and the most ruthless hatred. But my personal experience allowed me to better understand the brother´s relationship and therefore the text itself.
Explanation:
Text-to-self connections are the most interesting for me. Books often provide me comfort and helpful tools to apply in my personal life. The Outsider made me think of my family, specifically my relationship with my brothers. I love both of them, but family issues, mostly related to financial problems, often get in the way of us having a good relationship. We fight a lot.
I find a sign of hope in how Darry and Ponyboy reconcile at the end, at Sodapop´s request. Their brotherhood overcomes Dally’s and Johnny’s deaths while strengthening their family bond. I hope my brothers and I can someday do the same with our own issues.
The best choice is option one, although that is not fully correct. But because an author is present, the name comes first.
