The bath plug could not have been invented before the bath, except as a small object with which to play ice hockey. The order in which inventions are made is very important, much more important than has ever been realised, because we tend automatically to think that later inventions are better than earlier ones. A moments thought will show this is not so. If, for example, a solution to todays urban traffic problems was proposed in the shape of a small man-powered two-wheeled vehicle which would make the motor car look like a cumbersome overpowered device, a space rocket trying to tackle suburban problems, we would greet it as a great technological break through.“Bicycle makes car obsolete!” we would cry. Unfortunately, the bike came first, so we shall unconsciously see it as a cruder version of the car. _Other things which may have been invented too early are the airship, the radio, the railway train, the piano-roll player and the cuff-link. Consider also the zip. Zips represent a technological advance on buttons, being faster and more complete. They are also more liable to come adrift, break, jam, malfunction, stick and catch. Buttons can only go wrong if the thread is faulty. Even then, buttons can be mended by the user. Zips rarely can.1. The expression“ice hockey” (sentence 2) means_. A. a freezing compartment B. a game played on an ice rink C. a sweet flavoured frozen food D. a building in which ice is made.2. If the bicycle were to be invented now the car would appear_. A. unsuitable for its purpose B. in advance of its time C. unnecessarily expensive D. too fast for safety3. The airship and the radio are examples of thins which_. A. were not fully appreciated at the time of their invention B. are more suitable for use now than when they were invented C. have been neglected in favour of more recent inventions D. are less suited to their purpose than earlier inventions4. According to the writer, buttons are preferable to zips because they_. A. are more convenient B. are more reliable C. cost less to replace D. are safer to use5. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. A Cumbersome Over-Powered Device B. A Great Technological Breakthrough C. Do Zips Represent A Technological Advance? D. Does Technological Progress Work Backwards?Questions 610It took policeman John Pooley only an hour or two to solve the Case of the Thorpeness Burglary. It must be said, however, that the crime was not difficult. The description, though slight, narrowed the number of persons likely to commit such a crime.to one. Pooley, of course, knows everyone in the three villages in his care, and their children. But after he had made the arrestsomething he has to do more rarely than once a monthhe felt troubled because he not only knew the man, but also knew that he had family problems.Like most village police men, John Pooley is in charge of a very large area by police standards, which includes the three villages of Middleton, Dunwich and Westleton, where he lives. With a total population of 1, 219, he has more than twice as many people to look after as the average policeman has. Moreover, he is attached to the Halesworth subdivision and is frequently given duties outside his home area. After 15 years as a policeman, he accepts these duties without question, but his villages are clearly where his heart and interest really lie. When he was first sent to Westleton, he lived in the police house which was both his home and the police station; when the system was changed, he bought the house where he now lives with his wife, Ann, and his two daughters.He could hardly be better qualified for the job of village policeman. Before he joined the police, he was an agricultural worker for five years and a male nurse in a mental hospital for six years. He says:“If you havent had another job before you join the police, you tend to think nothing but police.”Crime in the country, of course, is somewhat different from city crime. Who was ever attacked while walking along the village street in Middleton? The things which John Pooley has to watch for are people stealing tools and equipment from farm vehicles, or wood from the surrounding forests. There are natural dangers too: he is so worried about the fire risk in forests that he has turned his bedroom window into a look-post.6. Why was John Pooley able to solve the Case of the Thorpeness Burglary so easily? A. He had been given a full description of the criminal. B. He knew everything that happened in the area. C. There were few crime cases in his area. D. There was only one possible suspect.7. From the passage it appears that nowadays a village policeman, like John Pooley, has to _. A. live in a village police house B. put out forest fires C. go through a long period of training D. look after more people than policemen elsewhere8. According to the passage, we learn that he_. A. is unpopular with the people in the villages B. objects when he is given work outside his own area C. prefers working in the villages of Middleton, Dunwich and Westleton D. feels unhappy when he arrests anybody.9. John Pooley thinks he is well qualified for his job because_. A. he had other jobs before he became a policeman B. has has been a policeman for fifteen years C. he has lived in Westleton all his life D. he is a countryman at heart10. Crime in this area is different from crime in a big city because_. A. it is hardly ever violent B. people here have more family problems C. the victim is easily attacked D. it is connected with natural disastersQuestions 1115Another dropped stitch in lifes rich tapestry: 15-year-old schoolboy who was caught in the Stock Market crash after a 100,000 shares gamble.
