What is the purpose of writing in MLA format?

To ensure texts are easier to read
To provide consistent presentation of sources
To motivate readers to read the entire text
To make texts more personalized

The correct answer is: To provide consistent presentation of sources

Writing in MLA format serves the purpose of providing a consistent presentation of sources. It is a commonly used academic writing style that helps writers properly cite their sources, organize their ideas, and format their work in a way that is easily understandable and recognizable by readers. Option A is incorrect because while MLA format does contribute to the readability of a text, it is not its main purpose. Option C is incorrect as MLA format does not aim to motivate readers but rather to accurately and correctly present information. Option D is incorrect because MLA format follows specific rules and guidelines, and therefore does not allow for personalization of texts. The use of MLA format ensures that sources are documented and referenced accurately and consistently.
