Read the excerpt from Infinite Jest.
This is not working out. It strikes me that EXIT signs would look to a native speaker of Latin like red-lit signs
that say HE LEAVES. I would yield to the urge to bolt for the door ahead of them if I could know that bolting
for the door is what the men in this room would see. DeLint is murmuring something to the tennis coach.
Sounds of keyboards, phone consoles as the door is briefly opened, then firmly shut. I am alone among
administrative heads.
Based on this excerpt, what can be inferred about the narrator?
O He is eager to play tennis and study at the university
O He wishes his Uncle Charles would return to the room.
O He would rather attend another university.
He is uncomfortable with the interview process.
