Read the excerpt from David Foster Wallace’s Infinite Jest. I am seated in an office, surrounded by heads and bodies. My posture is consciously congruent to the shape of my hard chair. This is a cold room in University Administration, wood-walled, Remington-hung, double-windowed against the November heat, insulated from Administrative sounds by the reception area outside, at which Uncle Charles, Mr. deLint and I were lately received. What is the setting in this excerpt? A. at a university office B. at a dorm room C. at the tennis courts D. at Uncle Charles’s home

Respuesta :

the answer is A. at a university.

Answer:

A. at a university office

Explanation:

By reading this excerpt we can figure out that the narrator is describing an office at a university. First he states that he is seated "at an office" we know for sure where he is. Later he says "This is a cold room in University Administration..." he is explicitly giving his location. The other sentences describe the place and the way he feels it; it has wood walls, the decoration is from an artist named Remington, the outside heat can't penetrate the building as well as the sounds as it is insulated.
