第一节,阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
My grandfather was a teacher. He was the headmaster of a school for boys between thirteen and eighteen. I know that he was a kind and gentle man at heart, because when I was young, he gave me presents, and seated me on his knee, and told me stories. But I believe the boys at his school were afraid of him.
At school, when he walked into a room full of noisy boys, there was silence at once. When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes, the boy went red in the face, and looked down at his shoes. If a boy brought him poor, careless work that was not the best the boy could do, my grandfather would pick up the boy’s book and throw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back to me in the morning!” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the work, he had to do it again, and again, and yet again. My grandfather never forgot.
He was a very different man at school from the man I saw day by day in his own home.

among Americans but also among people around the world.
Levi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829. 2_____ He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New
York in 1847. Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853, Strauss worked in his
brother's dry goods business. This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention. After the gold rush
of 1949, Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes.
Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals. Instead, he knew he could make
a good living by selling supplies to the miners. At first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth. 3_____

during mining, he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners. These pants proved so popular

connecting pockets with copper rivets (铆钉). This made the pants last a long time. Because Davis did not have
