  Brennan thought of the idea for his custom sock company at just 13 years old. He was attending a highschool basketball game in his hometown of Sherwood,Oregon,and noticed that many kids his age were wearing the same white Nike sport socks. The boy told himself that if these white plain socks were so popular with kids, then some cool custom designs would surely be an even greater hit.

  But the boy didn't tell his parents about the business idea immediately. He spent six months researching things like printing machines and technology and drawing up a business plan. Only when he had everything planned out did he ask his parents for a loan."They thought the idea was a little out there,"Brennan recentlytold CNN Money, but he kept pushing, and finally received a $3,000 loan to start his company. Then he began to work on his own designs. The fact that he was colorblind didnt stop him and he has created over 200 designs now.

Orders soon started coming in  in large numbers, and Hoopswagg became a popular brancag custom sock lovers.

  19.细节理解题。根据短文第二段内容He was attending a highschool basketball game in his hometown of Sherwood,Oregon,and noticed that many kids his age were wearing the same white Nike sport socks. The boy told himself that if these white plain socks were so popular with kids, then some cool custom designs would surely be an even greater hit.这一段介绍了Brennan如何产生商业想法的,故选B。

  20. 细节理解题。根据短文第三段中They thought the idea was a little out there,"Brennan recently told CNN Money, but he kept pushing, and finally received a $3, 000 loan to start his company.可知,Brennan的父母并不觉得他的这个想法好,最后他是从CNN Money获得了3,000美元的贷款,由此可知应选B。

  21. 推理判断题。根据短文最后一段中Brennan has achieved great success while balancing(平衡) schoolhouse chores and his social life可知,Brennan成功地平衡了他的学业和他的社会生活,由此我们可以知道,他既喜欢他的学业又喜欢他的生意,故应选D。

  22. 主旨大意题。这篇短文讲述了一个中学生Brennan在一次参加篮球比赛的时候,产生了一个想法,即自主设计袜子,还申请贷款开办了公司,取得了很大的成功,从这件事上我们可以看到他是一个很有创造力的孩子,故C选项creative有创造力的是最合适的。Honest诚实的;Kind 善良的;Helpful有帮助的。

  点睛:这篇短文给我们讲述了一个色盲男孩是如何创办了一个自主设计袜子的公司的。短文主题明确,结构清晰,比较利于学生们掌握大意。后面的题目设置有细节理解、推理判断和主旨大意题。第1小题考查我们对文章第二段的理解,根据这一段的内容可知,这里介绍了Brennan是如何产生了创办一个自主设计袜子的公司这个想法的,故B选项是正确的。再如第4小题,这个题目问的是哪一个词能形容Brennan,这个题目应结合文意来选择,从文章中介绍Brennan作为一个学生,萌发了创办公司的想法,并取得成功这件事我们可以看出creative有创造力的这个词来形容他是最合适的,故选C。
