Rae Armantrout, who has been a poetry professor at the University of California San Diego(UCSD)for two decades, has won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category for her most recent book, "Versed".
"I’m delighted and amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer brings, as compared to even the National Book Critics Award, which I was also surprised and delighted to win," said Armantrout.
" For a long time, my writing has been just below the media radar, and to have this kind of attention, suddenly, with my 10th book, is really surprising. "
Armantrout, a native Californian, received her bachelor’s degree at UC Berkeley, where she studied with noted poet Denise Levertov, and her master’s in creative writing from San Francisco State University. She is a founding member of Language Poets, a group in American poetry that analyzes the way language is used and raises questions to make the reader think.
In March, she won the National Book Critics Circle Award for "Versed".
" This book has gotten more attention," Armantrout said, " but I don’t feel as if it’s better. "
The first half of "Versed" focuses on the dark forces taking hold of the United States as it fought the war against Iraq. The second half looks at the dark forces casting a shadow over her own life after Armantrout was diagnosed with cancer in 2006.
Armantrout was shocked to learn she had won the Pulitzer, but many of her colleagues were not. "Rae Armantrout is a unique voice in American poetry," said Seth Lerer, head of Arts and Humanities at UCSD.
"Versed" , published by the Wesley an University Press, did appear in a larger printing than her earlier works, which is about 2,700 copies. The new edition is scheduled to appear in May.
What can we learn from the text?
选项
A、About 2,700 copies of "Versed" will be printed.
B、Cancer made Armantrout stop writing.
C、Armantrout got her degrees at UCSD.
D、Versed has been awarded twice.
答案
D
解析
此题可以使用排除法。从文中“Versed”,published by the Wesleyan UniversityPress,did appear in a larger printing than her earlier works,which is about 2,700 copies.可知2700册书已经出版出来,故不用will将来时态,A错。文中并未明确提到因为癌症而停止写作,故B错。从文中Rae Armantrout,who has been a poetry professor at the University ofCalifornia San Diego(UCSD)for two decades可知她是在UCSD从教而不是在那里毕业的,故C错。根据第一段最后一句说她因“Versed”获得“2010 Pulitzer Prize”;根据第五段说她因“Versed”获得“National Book Critics Circle Award”,故D正确。
