题目

 阅读理解Ledet, a native of Lake Charles and his sister were raised by his single mom. "It was as tough as you can imagine. Sometimes, we had to dig in trash cans for pizzas and not yet rotten fruit," said Ledet. When he graduated from high school, there were only two options he had — go to the military or get a job. So, in 2004, the U. S. Navy became his job.But life has a way of offering second chances. During a conversation with his wife, Mallory, he realized that college is not just for rich people, he can go to college too. With Mallory's help, he applied to Southern University. But as he also needed to make money for his family, Ledet took a job at Baton Rouge General Medical Center as a security guard.It was a job that changed his path. While working there, he became inspired and wanted to become a physician. So he started asking as many physicians as he could whether he could shadow them. And a lot of them told him security guards don't become doctors. But one doctor, Dr. Patrick Greiffenstein, honored Ledet's request. He did what was necessary so that Ledet could officially follow him as he did surgeries and cared for patients. Ledet was dedicated from the start. "He desired to learn and he read on his own and he looked up things, so it seemed obvious that this was real for him. He would stay late and then go into his shift the next morning or do a shift and come join us in the morning, "said Greiffenstein.Ledet went on to graduate from Southern University with a double major: chemistry and biology. But a bachelor's degree would not be the end of his academic pursuits. He earned his doctor's degree from NYU School of Medicine. Still, he wanted to be a medical doctor. （1） What do we know about Russell Ledet's early life? A . He came from poor family. B . He dropped out of school. C . He enjoyed being a Navy. D .
