Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer
Ernest Hemingway was one of the greatest American writers. He was born in Illinois in a family of a doctor. In his schooldays, Ernest became an excellent sportsman. He played football, was a member of the swimming team, and learned to box, as a result of which his nose was broken and an eye injured. At school he was a successful student. He wrote prose and poetry for the school library magazine, and edited the school newspaper.
In 1917, when World War I broke out, he wanted to join the army but was refused because of his eye. Then he left home and went to Kansas City, where he worked as a newspaper reporter. In 1918 he tried to join the army again and was given a job of driving American Red Cross ambulances on the Italian front. Two months later he was badly wounded. In 1920, he returned to the USA. He began to support himself by his pen. To get the material for his future stories and novels, Hemingway traveled to many places all over the world. His first work, “Three Stories and Ten Poems”, was written in 1923. Then followed his masterpiece, the novel “A Farewell to Arms”, a protest against war, which was published in 1929 and made the author famous.
During World War II, Hemingway was a war-correspondent. Hemingway’s last work, “The Old Man and the Sea”, written in 1952, is about the courage of an old fisherman, who was fighting a big fish and the sea for many hours and won the victory over them. In 1954, the author was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature, and “The Old Man and the Sea” was mentioned as one of his best works. Hemingway passed way in 1961 in the USA.
