Read the excerpt below from The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie and answer the question that follo

ws.
So I draw because I want to talk to the world. And I want the world to pay attention to me. I feel important with a pen in my hand. I feel like I might grow up to be somebody important. An artist. Maybe a famous artist. Maybe a rich artist.

That’s the only way I can become rich and famous.

Just take a look at the world. Almost all of the rich and famous brown people are artists. They’re singers and actors and writers and dancers and directors and poets.

So I draw because I feel like it might be my only real chance to escape the reservation.

A. hopeful
B. miserable
C. obnoxious
D. peaceful

Answer:

I think that the character trait that the passage from <em>The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian</em> by Sherman Alexie reveals about Arnold is that he feels hopeful. <u>The correct answer would be A.</u>

Explanation:

Despite of being in a really different position now, according to this excerpt, Arnold dreams of escaping the reservation, he dreams about being an artist one day, as many other brown people he knows. His tone feels sweet and tender, when he draws, he says, he feels free, he feels he has something to tell the world. Drawing is his passion and he feels powerful when he does it, he feels happy and knows that passion of him can be his salvation, the door to freedom.

I think the answer is also A, because she is talking about all these professions and achievements of others, and she is secretly hoping she will find some way to become successful. When she draws, she can dream about becoming famous.
