Long before he started a car company, he was a worker, known for picking up pieces of metal and wire and turning them into machines. He started putting cars together in 1891. Although it was by no means the first popular automobile.the Model T showed the world just how creative Ford was at combining technology and market. The company’s assembly line alone threw America’s Industrial Revolution into overdrive (高速运转). Instead of having workers put together the entire .car, Ford’s friends, who were great toohnakers from Scotland, organized teams that added parts to each Model T as it moved down a line. By the time Ford’s Highland Park plant was humming (嗡嗡作响) along in 1914, the world’s first automatic conveyor belt could turn out a car every 93 minutes. The same year Henry Ford shocked the world with the $ 5—a day minimum wage scheme, the greatest contribution he had ever made. The average wage in the auto industry then was $ 2.34 for a 9-hour shift. Ford not only doubled that, he also took an hour off the workday. In those years it was unthinkable that a man could be paid that much for doing something that didn’t involve all awful lot of training or education. The Wall Street Journal called the plan "an economic crime", and critics everywhere laughed at Ford. But as the wage increased later to daily $10, it proved a critical component of Ford’s dream to make the automobile accessible (可及的) to all. The critics were too stupid to understand that because Ford had lowered his costs per car, the higher wages didn’t matter — except for making it possible for more people to buy Cars.

A. Ford’s cars became available to ordinary people thanks to ______.

Text 2 Attitudes to leisure have been much influenced by the modern love of moving around and by the ease of travel. The British enjoy the family outing. Most people choose well-known beauty spots, or seaside beaches. Others choose a lonely place, where there are very few people. They may follow tracks between the mountains and lochs and watch seals and seabirds. Food in British hotels and restaurants is reasonably cheap, but hotel rooms are not. The English people rent house or flats for their holidays, but one of the traditional ways of spending a summer holiday is in a boarding house. A house like this may have a card in its window advertising bed and breakfast. In seaside towns there are whole streets of houses, almost every one of which has such notice in window. In recent years several new holiday habits have developed. Among them; the most interesting one is the growth of the so-called holiday camps. They consist usually of great numbers of small, and often quite comfortable, suburban houses, together with central dining halls, dancing halls and swimming pools. Camping holidays with tents are not so well developed in England as in France. The summer weather too often can be very unpleasant for tent-dwellers. Why do English people rent house or flats for their holidays

A. Because it is an important tradition.
Because there are too many houses for rent.
C. Because hotel rooms are quite expensive.
D. Because they have no other choices.

What will they probably do this afternoon

A. Go to the movies.
B. Go to the theatre.

A number of parents prefer not to send their children to school. (1) There are about 300,000 home-schoolers in the United States today. Some parents prefer teaching their children at home because they do not believe that public schools teach the correct religious values; others believe they can provide a better educational experience for their children by teaching them at home. (2) David Gtisterson and his wife teach their three children at home. Guterson says that his children learn very differently from children in school. (3) For example, when there is heavy snowfall on a winter day, it may start a discussion or reading about climate, snow removal (去除) equipment, Alaska, polar bears (北极熊), and winter tourism. A spring evening when the family is out watching the stars is a good time to ask questions about satellites and the space program. (4) Home schooling is often more interesting than regular schools, but critics say that home-schoolers are outsiders who might be uncomfortable mixing other people in adult life. (5) However, most parents don’t have the time or the desire to teach their children at home, so schools will continue to be where most children get their formal education. A. Interestingly, results show that home-schooled children quite often do better than average on national tests in reading and math. B. Critics also say that most parents are not well qualified to teach their children. C. Learning starts with the children’s interests and questions. D. Children who are educated at home are known as "home-schoolers". E. In some countries, however, children are educated by their parents. E If the Brazilian rain forests are on the TV news, it could be a perfect time to talk about how rain forests influence the climate, and how deserts are formed.
