But the real angler continues, regardless of the local sage. He who has heard the line sing suddenly out of his reel, and, after

a hard-fought hour, scooped a six-pound black bass into the landing net, weary, but still "game," is not dismayed by bad luck. He who can cast a fly a hundred feet or more finds pleasure in that, if not in fishing. Whoever has taken in a muskellunge of any size will ever after troll patiently, even through masses of weed. Whoever has leaned over the side of a sailboat, peering down into the green, crystalline waters of the Gulf, and seen, twenty feet down, the shimmering sides of a fifteen-pound red grouper, firmly hooked and coming, will never turn over sleepily, for a last nap, when his door is almost broken in at 5 A.M.
What is the purpose of the author's use of diction in describing the sight of a red grouper?

A) The author uses figurative language to evoke the beautiful sight of a grouper.

B) The author uses sarcasm to describe how futile trying to catch a grouper can be.

C) The author uses negative diction to continue his mocking of fishing for unshelled fish.

D) The author uses positive evocative language to describe the wonder of catching a grouper.

E) The author uses exaggeratedly studious language to give the impression of a personified grouper.

My knowledge made me happy—it was like a fire in my heart. Most of all, I liked to hear of the Old Days and the stories of the gods. I asked myself many questions that I could not answer, but it was good to ask them. At night, I would lie awake and listen to the wind—it seemed to me that it was the voice of the gods as they flew through the air.

We are not ignorant like the Forest People—our women spin wool on the wheel, our priests wear a white robe. We do not eat grubs from the trees, we have not forgotten the old writings, although they are hard to understand. Nevertheless, my knowledge and my lack of knowledge burned in me—I wished to know more. When I was a man at last, I came to my father and said, "It is time for me to go on my journey. Give me your leave."
