本文介绍了马云。马云创立了自己的公司阿里巴巴。在这之前，他也是失败了许多次，但是他都没有放弃，最终取得了成功。

【1】句意：然而，他们都拒绝了他。

考查动词辨析。one一个；some一些；all所有的；none一个没有。根据“People probably know that I applied for so many jobs, over 30 jobs, but all got refused.”人们可能知道我申请了这么多工作，超过30个，但都被拒绝了。可知，前面应该是他们都拒绝了他。故选C。

【2】句意：尽管马云直到30多岁才开始取得事业上的成功，但他的公司阿里巴巴（Alibaba）的估值为5190亿美元。

考查名词辨析。family家庭；company公司； school学校；restaurant餐馆。我们知道阿里巴巴是马云的公司，所以选company。故选B。

【3】句意：我失败了很多次。

考查动词辨析。succeeded成功；thought想法；failed失败；started开始。从第二段后面的内容可以看出马云在求职过程中失败了很多次，所以是failed many times。故选C。

【4】句意：“我是唯一被拒绝的人，”他解释说。

考查形容词辨析。only唯一的；special特殊的；different不同的；same相同的。从“24 of us were interviewed for a KFC job. 23 got accepted”可以看出，24人面试，23人都被接受了，他是唯一一个被拒绝的，only唯一的，仅有的，故选A。

【5】句意：虽然他的表弟得到了那份工作，但马云又被拒绝了。

考查连词。Because因为；Although尽管；So因此；And和。根据“ 5 his cousin got the job, Ma was refused again.”虽然他的表兄被接受了，但是他却再次被拒绝了。根据语境可知，这是一个转折关系，故选B。

【6】句意：当他母亲向他摇头时，他拒绝感到沮丧，并认为“这是我的一门培训课程。

考查形容词辨析。happy高兴的；excited激动的；proud骄傲的；upset难过的。从“When his mother shook her head at him, he refused to feel……”可以看出虽然他的妈妈都对他摇头了，他也拒绝感到沮丧，并认为“这是我的一门培训课程。”故选D。

【7】句意：尽管他说他30多岁之前觉得自己是个失败者，但马云从未放弃过。

考查动词短语辨析。fell over摔倒；跌倒；cut down削减；gave up放弃； kept on继续。

根据“Though he said he felt like a failure before reaching his 30s, Ma never 7 .”可知，尽管在他30岁之前，他感觉像是个失败者，但是他从没想过放弃。因此应该选择give up放弃，故选C。

【8】句意：他让自己成为自己的竞争对手，描绘出他希望在10年内做的事情，并尽一切努力实现自己的梦想。

考查动词辨析。achieve实现；believe相信；break突破；make制造。根据“did everything he could to 8 his dream.”可知，他会做一切可以做的事情来实现他的梦想。实现某人的梦想：achieve one’s dream。故选A。

【9】句意：你从错误中学习并不是因为你能避免它们，而是当这些麻烦来临时，你学会了如何处理它们。
