The correct answer is A. To be a member of ParliamentExplanation:Oliver Goldsmith is mainly known as a famous Irish writer author of novels, poems, and playwrights, however, Goldsmith tried different careers during his life. Oliver Goldsmith was born in 1728 in Ireland and attended  Trinity College, Dublin in 1744 where he studied laws, but he was expelled three years later. Some years later in 1749 Goldsmith graduated from a Bachelor of arts, after this, he spent time as a musician playing the flute. However in 1752, he went back to the University in Edinburgh and studied medicine, it was not after the medical school that Goldsmith began writing while trying different jobs. Thus, it can be concluded Goldsmith did not attempt to be a member of Parliament, as he was never interested in this, however, he tried being a doctor, lawyer, and a musician but at the end was recognized as a writer.
