correct answer to each of the following questions.
Books which give instructions on how to do things are very popular in the United States today.
Thousands of these How-to books are useful. In fact, there are about four thousand books with titles that
begin with the words “How to”. One book may tell you how to earn more money. Another may tell you
how to save or spend it and another may explain how to give your money away.
Many How-to books give advice on careers. They tell you how to choose a career and how to
succeed in it
succeed in It.If you fail, however, you can buy the book “ How to Turn Failure into Suc-
cess”. If you would like to become very rich, you can buy the book “How to Make a Millionaire”. If you
never make any money at all, you may need a book called “How to Live on Nothing”.
One of the most popular types of books is one that helps you with personal problems. If you want
to have a better love of life, you can read “How to Succeed in Love every Minute of Your Life”. If you are
tired of books on happiness, you may prefer books which give step-by-step instructions on how to

correct answer to each of the following questions
The National Automobile Show in New York has been one of the top auto shows in the United
States since 1900. On November 3 of that year, about 8,000 people looked over the “horseless
carriages.” It was the opening day and the first opportunity for the automobile industry to show off its
wares to a large crowd; however, the black-tie audience treated the occasion more as a social affair than
as a sales extravaganza. It was also on the first day of this show that William McKinley became the first
U.S. president to ride in a car.

The automobile was not invented in the United States. That distinction belongs to Germany.
Nikolaus Otto built the first practical internal-combustion engine there in 1876. Then, German engineer
Karl Benz built what are regarded as the first modern automobiles in the mid-1880s. But the United
States pioneered the merchandising of the automobile. The auto show proved to be an effective means
of getting the public excited about automotive products.
By happenstance, the number of people at the first New York show equaled the entire car
population of the United States at that time. In 1900, 10 million bicycles and an unknown number of
horse-drawn carriages provided the prime means of personal transportation. Only about 4,000 cars were
assembled in the United States in 1900, and only a quarter of those were gasoline powered. The rest ran
on steam or electricity.
After viewing the cars made by forty car makers, the show’s audience favored electric cars
because they were quiet. The risk of a boiler explosion turned people away from steamers, and the

gasoline-powered cars produced smelly fumes. The Duryea Motor Wagon Company, which launched
the American auto industry in 1895, offered a fragrant additive designed to mask the smells of the
naphtha that it burned. Many of the 1900 models were cumbersome—the Gasmobile, the Franklin, and
the Orient, for example, steered with a tiller like a boat instead of with a steering wheel. None of them
was equipped with an automatic starter.
These early model cars were practically handmade and were not very dependable. They were
basically toys of the well-to-do. In fact, Woodrow Wilson, then a professor at Princeton University and
later President of the United States, predicted that automobiles would cause conflict between the
wealthy and the poor. However, among the exhibitors at the 1900 show was a young engineer named
Henry Ford. But before the end of the decade, he would revolutionize the automobile industry with his
Model T Ford. The Model T, first produced in 1909, featured a standardized design and a streamlined
method of production—the assembly line. Its lower costs made it available to the mass market.
Cars at the 1900 show ranged in price from $1,000 to $1,500, or roughly $14,000 to $21,000 in
today’s prices. By 1913, the Model T was selling for less than $300, and soon the price would drop even
further. “I will build cars for the multitudes,” Ford said, and he kept his promise.
Question 6:
The passage implies that the audience viewed the 1900 National Automobile Show
primarily as a(n)___________
A.
formal social occasion.

B.
chance to buy automobiles at low prices.

C.
opportunity to learn how to drive.
