however, Duryea managed to fix it up and struggled to travel down the road for another halfmile or so.In September 1895 the two brothers organized the first car company in the United States, the Duryea Motor Wagon Company, to build and sell their gaspowered socalled cars.On Thanksgiving Day of that year, to advertise for the product, Duryea won the countrys first automobile race.(The race continued despite an enormous snowstorm that made the roads nearly impassable; still, Frank managed to complete the 50mile race in a little more than 10 hours.)Duryea left the Duryea Motor Wagon Company in 1899 and two years later he helped start the StevensDuryea Company.He retired in 1915 and spent the rest of his days living comfortably in Connecticut, traveling, gardening and walking around his workshop.语篇解读：本文主要讲述了发明家兼技工弗兰克德耶的生平及个人的发展。1In the writers opinion, Frank Duryea insisted that the first automobile was entirely his own invention mainly because _.Ahe lived longer than his older brotherBhe made more contributions to the inventionChe came up with the idea firstDhe was the first driver on the American road解析：选A推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Because Charles died earlier by many years, Duryea had the last word.”可知，作者认为弗兰克德耶比他哥哥晚去世很多年，所以他有最后的发言权，坚持认为这项发明属于自己。2Duryea managed to win the race mainly in order to _.Awin much money Bpromote his inventionCcompete with his brother Dchallenge himself解析：选B推理判断题。根据第三段中的“to advertise for the product”可知，此项赛事主要起到宣传作用，他奋力赢得比赛，是在为自己的产品做宣传促销。3When StevensDuryea Company was organized, how old was Duryea?A26 years old. B30 years old.C32 years old. D46 years old.解析：选C细节理解题。根据最后一段首句可知，他创建该公司的时间是1901年，而文章开头提到他出生的时间为1869年，由此可知，他创建公司时32岁。4What is the passage mainly talking about?AFrank Duryea. BFrank and his brother.CFranks invention. DFranks company.解析：选A主旨大意题。概括全文可知，本文主要讲述了弗兰克德耶的一生，包括他的发明、创建的公司、参加的比赛、退休后的生活等。由此可见，本文的主题应该是“Frank Duryea”。.阅读七选五Every day can be a fresh, new beginning this is very important if you had a difficult day before.
