D. We should devote ourselves to whatever we do.

Key:

1. C。第二段作者提到，毕业在即经济形势却不好，他还没有找好工作，租的房子也快到期了，所以这时他的心情应该是沮丧抑郁的。

2. B。由第三段的“But what I thought would take a week dragged into two, then four”可以得此答案。文中没有提到作者的家人也去了加州，所以A不对。根据第三段“100 job applications later, I found myself still jobless”，作者当时在努力找工作，并不是一心写作不找工作，C有误。既然没有工作，也就没有salary，所以D也不对。

3. A。由第七段的“I was offered a publishing contract for my first book. After that, things fell into place”可以得此答案。

4. B。作者先谈到了毕业后自己不畏困境，坚持写作和找工作，最后终于如愿，而且最后一段作者说“The moral of this story is... don’t give up”，所以B为正确答案，意思是“想要成功毅力是很重要的”。

D。根据常识也知道靠近靶心的位置最危险，文中第四段提到了For those first few days, the safest place to stand is in front of the target, jeter jokes.，这是一句调侃的话，说明新学射箭者一阵乱射，根本无法射中靶心，所以靠近靶心反而是最安全的地方，所以A不对；由第九段“The students use compound bows with adjustable draw weights and aluminum (铝) arrows. They shoot at targets from distances of 10 and 15 meters.”可知所有学生的箭是统一的，所以B、C不对；由该段最后一句话“A signal tells them when they can shoot and when it’s clear to get back their arrows.”可知D正确。
