(2020全国I卷)Returning to a book you’ve read many times can feel like drinks with an old friend...
There are three books I reread annually. The first, which I take to reading every spring is Emest Hemningway’s A Moveable Feast. Published in 1964, it’s his classic memoir of 1920s Paris. The language is almost intoxicating (令人陶醉的)，an aging writer looking back on an ambitious yet simpler time. Another is Annie Dillard’s Holy the Firm, her poetic 1975 ramble (随笔) about everything and nothing. The third book is Julio Cortazar’s Save Twilight: Selected Poems, because poetry. And because Cortazar.
27. What can we infer about the author from the text
A. He loves poetry.
B. He is an editor.
C. He is very ambitious.
D. He teaches reading.
