问题     Levi Strauss was born in Germany, and【C1】______to America when young. In 1853 he took his dreams to San Francisco. There his dream, to succeed【C2】______true.
    Many of Levi Strauss’【C3】______were cowboys and miners,【C4】______needed clothing that was【C5】______and durable. Strauss found a【C6】______fabric that was comfortable and lasted a long time,【C7】______"serge de Nimes," which was later【C8】______to the word denim.
    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. So Jacob Davis decided to put rivets (铆钉) on【C12】______parts of the pants to make them stronger. The customer【C13】______the new pants【C14】______much that he told all his Mends, and soon Jacob Davis was busy【C15】______pants with rivets.
    Jacob Davis【C16】______that using rivets was a great business idea, and he didn’t want anybody to【C17】______that. He decided to get a patent (专利权). But【C18】______poor, he couldn’t【C19】______the patent. So he went to Levi Strauss. He said, "If you agree to pay for the patent, we will【C20】______the profits." Levi Strauss agreed, and the new business was born. Today Levi’s name is more popular than before.
【C20】
选项 A、share
B、benefit
C、get
D、distribute
答案A
解析 这是Jacob Davis在请求Levi Strauss帮助时说的话，从逻辑推断他应该是以一定的利益来换取Levi Strauss的支持，因此应该是“如果你愿意担负专利权的费用，我们就分享利益”，所以，选择share是最恰当的。distribute意思是分发、分配，特指“将某物分成一定的部分或数量，通常各份的数量不一定相等，然后分给某些人或地方”，如：to distribute books to students给学生发书；benefit做“从……受益”解释时用benefit from...。
