23、ndrew carnegie, known as the king of steel, built the steel industry in the united states, and, in the process, became one of the wealthiest men in america. his success resulted in part from his ability to sell the product and in part from his policy of expanding during periods of economic decline,

24、when most of his competitors were reducing their investments. carnegie believed that individuals should progress through hard work, but he also felt strongly that the wealthy should use their fortunes for the benefit of society. he opposed charity, preferring instead to provide educational opportuni

25、ties that would allow others to help themselves. “he who dies rich, dies disgraced, he often said. among his more noteworthy contributions to society are those that bear his name, including the carnegie institute of pittsburgh, which has a library, a museum of fine arts, and a museum of national his

26、tory. he also founded a school of technology that is now part of carnegie-mellon university. other philanthropic(慈善的) gifts are the carnegie endowment for international peace to promote understanding between nations, the carnegie institute of washington to fund scientific research, and carnegie hall

31、t over the rolling hills of a pretty collection of thatched farm buildings _these are still common sights in parts of england. most people will agree that the thatched roof is an essential part of the attraction of the english countryside. thatching is in fact the oldest of all the building crafts p

32、racticed in the british isles. although thatch has always been used for cottage and farm buildings, it was once used for castles and churches, too. thatching is a solitary单独的craft, which often runs in families. the craft of thatching as it is practiced has today changed very little since the middle

33、ages. over 800 full-time thatchers are employed in england and wales today, maintaining and renewing the old roofs as well as thatching newer houses. many property owners choose thatch not only for its beauty but because they know it will keep them cool in summer and warm in winter. in fact, if we l

34、ook at developing countries, over half the world lives under thatch, but they all do it in different ways. people in developing countries are often unwilling to go back to traditional materials and would prefer modern buildings. however, they may lack the money to allow them to import the necessary

39、tatement, “the business of america is business, still points to an important truth today-that business institutions have more prestige威望in american society than any other kind of organization, including the government. why do business institutions possess this great prestige?one reason is that ameri

40、cans view business as being more firmly based on the ideal of competition than other institutions in society. since competition is seen as the major source of progress and prosperity by most americans, competitive business institutions are respected. competition is not only good in itself, it is the

41、 means by which other basic american values such as individual freedom, equality of opportunity, and hard work are protected.competition protects the freedom of the individual by ensuring that there is no monopoly垄断of power. in contrast to one, all-powerful government, many businesses compete agains

42、t each other for profits. theoretically, if one business tries to take unfair advantage of its customers, it will lose to competing business which treats its customers more fairly. where many businesses compete for the customers dollar, they cannot afford to treat them like inferiors or slaves.a con

43、trast is often made between business, which is competitive, and government, which is a monopoly. because business is competitive, many americans believe that it is more supportive of freedom than government, even though government leaders are elected by the people and business leaders are not. many

44、americans believe, then, that competition is as important, or even more important, than democracy in preserving freedom.competition in business is also believed to strengthen the ideal of equality of opportunity. competition is seen as an open and fair race where success goes to the swiftest person

45、regardless of his or her social class background. competitive success is commonly seen as the american alternative to social rank based on family background. business is therefore viewed as an expression of the idea of equality of opportunity rather than the noble idea of inherited privilege.53.the

50、fool. in high school i wanted to be an electrical engineer and, of course, any sensible student with my aims would have chosen a college with a large engineering department, famous reputation and lots of good labs and research equipment. but thats not what i did. i chose to study engineering at a sm

51、all liberal arts文科university that doesnt even offer a major in electrical engineering. obviously, this was not a practical choice; i came here for more noble reasons. i wanted a broad education that would provide me with flexibility and a value system to guide me in my career. i wanted to open my ey

52、es and expand my vision by interacting with people who werent studying science or engineering. my parents, teachers and other adults praised me for such a sensible choice. they told me i was wise and mature beyond my 18 years, and i believed them. i headed off to college, sure i was going to have an

53、 advantage over those students who went to big engineering “factories, where they didnt care if you had values or were flexible. i was going to be a complete engineer: technical genius and sensitive humanist人文学者all in one. now im not so sure. somewhere along the way my noble ideals crashed into real

54、ity, as all noble ideals eventually do. after three years of struggling to balance math, physics and engineering courses with liberal arts courses, i have learned there are reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile协调engineering with liberal arts courses in college. the reality that has b

55、locked my path to become the typical successful student is that engineering and the liberal arts simply dont mix as easily as i assumed in high school. individually they shape a person in very different ways; together they threaten to confuse. the struggle to reconcile the two fields of study is difficult. 57. the author chose to study engineering at a small liberal arts university because he _.a. wanted to be an example of practicality and rationality b. intended to be a combination of engineer and humanist c. wanted to coordinate engineering with liberal arts courses in
