1.Read the passage carefully:-
1 When Levi Strauss sold his first pair of jeans, they were not blue and they were not
denim': He was 21, a recent immigrant from Bavaria?, when he landed in San Francisco in
1850 with gold on his mind. His brother back East had stocked him with some dry goods and
bolts of canvas, which young Levi intended to sell as tents and wagon tops. He wanted to
raise cash to buy himself a claim in the gold digs'. Legend has it that a single encounter with
a disgruntled7 miner changed his career. L Eyeing the goods, the miner said he would have
done better to bring pants. Pants were out quickly in the gold digs.
2 Very soon, that miner had the toughest pair of brown canvas pants in the West. Soon,
other gold prospectors came around looking for those pants of Levi's. Within a few years, he
switched from canvas to French denim, reputed to be the strongest fabric in the world. He
later added the indigolº dye that puts the blue in the blue jeans.
3 Meanwhile, Jacob Davis, a tailor in Nevada", came up with the idea of copper-riveted
pockets. Miners no kept loading ore into their pockets and ripping them out.
4 One day, after having repaired the same miner's pockets several times, the tailor sneaked
off12 to the 00. harness13 shop and reinforced the seams with rivets. Davis knew he had a
good thing, so he went down to see Strauss in San Francisco and the two men took out a
patent on riveted pockets.
