The success story started in northern Italy towards the end of the Second World War. Leone Benetton had a bicycle rental(租赁)business in the town of Treviso. He wanted his oldest son Lu- ciano to study and become a doctor. After Leone died, the family was poor and Luciano decided to leave school and get a job. He found work in a clothing store but soon had his own ideas and star-ted a family clothing company producing colourful woollen sweaters for people only used to wearing dull colours. Shops selling only Benetton sweaters opened in many Italian cities and by 1974 therewere stores in France, Gemany and Belgium.
It was clear that at this stage the success of the Benetton business lay in the strength of the family. In 1975 Luciano married the 20-year-old Marina Salomon who worked in one of his shops. Af-ter careful research, Benetton opened his first shop in the USA, in Manhattan, New York, where it attracted some very special customers including Princess Diana and Jackie Onassis. In 1982 Lucianowas introduced to Oliviero Toscani, the photographer who was to change the image(形象) of Be- netton forever.
Although Benetton was growing very quickly, they needed an international image and for thisreason in the early l980s they decided to provide money for Formula l motor-racing. This was fol-lowed by the advertising campaigns(广告攻势) for which the company became famous.
Luciano Benetton succeeded in turning the company he started in the l950s into one of the world' s most successful businesses but he paid a high personal price. He spent so much of his life working and travelling that he lost touch with his family and friends.
56. What did Luciano Benetton' s father hope he would do?
[ A] Sell clothes.
[ B ] Build a factory.
[ C ] Learn medicine.
[ D] Run a bicycle business.

And they travel through a universe so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For the most part each star makes its journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well over a million miles from its nearest neighbor. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhere neat it.
We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wandering (漫游) through space, happened to come near our sun, Just as the sun and the moon raise tides (潮汐) on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on the surface of the sun. But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in our oceans; a large tidal wave must have travelled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the cause of the disturbance (动荡) came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before the star began to move away again, its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and threw off small parts of itself into space.
These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets (行星).
第47题:Millions of stars are ________.
[A] following a regular path in space
[B] moving about without a fixed course
[C] seldom wandering about in the universe
[D] always travelling together
