问题 What did the professor stress in his book?
W: Professor Johnson, can I talk to you for a minute?
M: Of course, Linda. What can I do for you?
W: Well, I just finished reading your newest book on how to write about the natural world, and I thought it was great.
M: I’m glad you liked it.
W: You know, before I picked up your book, I never thought of nature writing as a specific genre.
M: Not many people do. But really, learning how to describe the natural world is important to all forms of writing. In my book, I stressed that nature writing almost exclusively depends on using your five senses of sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste. The whole purpose of nature writing is to paint a picture of the world around you. If you think about it, creative writing professors teach their students the same things concerning imagery.
W: That may be true, but most of my friends in creative writing class say that one of their big problems is that they don’t use enough description in their works.
M: That’s not surprising. Many writing students have trouble because it’s hard to put the description of the world around them into words.
W: I always had trouble using imagery in my writing until I read your book. After doing some of the exercises you suggested, I feel like my writing has improved some.
M: That’s wonderful. I think if students practiced writing about the natural world, they’d find it much easier to put images into writing.
W: That’s one of the reasons I’d talk to you. Since I know this is the time when you professors start planning what classes you want to teach next term, I wanted you to consider forming a class on nature writing. We could use the book you wrote as the class textbook.
M: I’m flattered that you think so. I suggested teaching a class on nature writing over two semesters ago, but the department head didn’t believe it would be popular with students.
W: Actually I know many students who want to sign up for it.
M: If you could get thirty students to send letters to the department head expressing support for a nature writing course, it might convince him to approve one.

选项 A、He told students how to put imagery into writing.
B、Enough exercises are essential to creative writing.
C、People should appreciate the natural world around them.
D、Students must use their five senses in their nature writing.

答案 D

解析 根据对话内容可知,教授在书中强调自然写作几乎完全取决于使用五感:视觉、听觉、嗅觉、触觉和味觉,故选D。
