Jacob Davis, a【C9】______, bought large mounts of the denim fabric from Levi Strauss. One of his customers was【C10】______tearing the pockets【C11】______his pants.

选项
A、at
B、off
C、apart
D、away
答案
B
解析
这里要注意区分四个词组的意思。tear at是“用力撕开、使心碎”;tear apart是“扯开、把…弄乱、把…痛苦地分开”;tear off是“从…撕掉,匆匆脱掉”;tear away是“拉掉、夺走、忍痛抢去”。tear the pockets off one’s pants意指将某人的裤兜从裤子上扯掉。
