Answer:

C.

Throughout the poem the <em>a</em><em>u</em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em>o</em><em>r</em> refers to the narrator's incapacity to play sports. Although the narrator enjoys sports (or at least watching them) he fails many, many times at trying to play them. Because he makes an effort to try sports the answer is likely not A). And because the narrator's situation is still found humorous and no mention is given to his wit, the answer is likely not B). And finally because the <em>a</em><em>u</em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em>o</em><em>r</em> gives no mention to the narrator's social skills ( besides other sports players) or the <em>a</em><em>u</em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em>o</em><em>r</em><em>'</em><em>s</em><em> </em>negative experiences with sportswriters it is likely not D).

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Answer:

According to the text, we can say that Wallace chose to choose his career and life because he was happy in the real world and the happiness behind the green door was fleeting.

Explanation:

answer because

Wallace felt great behind the green door, but that happiness was fleeting and didn't last when he returned home.

In that case, he was left with an extreme feeling of sadness and melancholy and that was a very bad feeling.

However, starting a college, having contact with people, and planning his own life and career, was something that made Wallace happy, and that happiness was maintained.

Wallace thought that happiness in the real world was more stable, as it was a happiness that depended on him and that he could have it wherever he went.
