问题 PASSAGE ONE
Why was the author forced to work in his brother’s company?
选项
答案Because his father was afraid of his inclination for the sea．
解析 根据题干中的his brother’s company定位到第2段。该段第3、4句指出，作者喜欢哥哥的公司，但更向往大海(a hankering for the sea)。为了避免这种意向产生可怕的后果，父亲便把他绑在了哥哥身边。也就是说作者是被迫在哥哥的公司工作的，其原因可定位到表目的的不定式短语上(To prevent．．．)。回答对原因提问的问句时，答案一般以Because／Because of开头，所以需对此句进行同义转换，也需指明不定式短语中such an inclination指代的具体内容是指向往大海，因此答案为Because his father was afraid of his inclination for the sea。
