W: Good morning, Doctor Sherman Alexie. Let’s talk about your life, where you come from?
M: I come from the Rez, an Indian reservation. I grew up there, lived there until 18.
I lived on and off the reservation for the next 6 or 7 years during college. I lived there after I graduated, worked at a high school exchange program. I thought I do that kind of job to support my writing. Day jobs that require no emotional investment beyond 8 hours a day where I wouldn’t need to bring work home. I didn’t want to be part of management or anybody important at the job. I wanted to be completely replaceable, that is what I thought I would be doing for most of my life and writing. Then I got a ground and my first book got a frontpage review in the New York Times Book Review.
W: When did writing enter your life?
M: Books are always being in my life. My dad love books and most of what he read were westerns-spy novels, mysteries. I grew up loving books, copying my father’s love for books. But nobody has showed me a book written by an Indian, not even one piece of poem. Nothing. At that time I was going to be a physician. I loved math and science. I got to college, couldn’t handle physiology, and was looking around for options and took a poetry writing class for fun.
W: Poetry was your way in?
M: Yes, that’s where I started. I took the class and honestly, I just thought it would be an easy grade. But I completely underestimated poetry and what it would do to me and the realm of possibility for it. I took the class and was hooked about ten minutes after reading my first contemporary poem.
选项
A、For an easy grade.
B、To follow his father.
C、To change his specialty.
D、For knowledge of poetry.
答案
A
解析
Why did he take the poetry-writing class?
