If you have a Context instance then you can do this:

  1. Context.Resources
  2. Context.Resources.DisplayMetrics;
  3. System.IO.File.ReadAllText(file);

Context can be obtained via Application.Context or an Activity instance

When building your app with Xamarin.Android you actually use the exact same API's as you would normally if you develop for Android in Java. However, the API signatures have been C#-ified, to adhere to the naming conventions of the .NET platform. So the names are almost all the same, or equivalent in .NET as they are in Java.
