Technlgy has been an encuragement f histrical change. It acted as such a frce in England beginning in the eighteenth century, and acrss the entire Western Wrld in the nineteenth. Rapid advances were made in the use f scientific findings in the manufacture (制造) f gds, which has changed ideas abut wrk. One f the first changes was that ther frms f energy have taken the place f human pwer. Alng with this came the increased use f machines t manufacture prducts in less time. Peple als develped machines that culd prduce the same parts fr a prduct: each nail was exactly like every ther nail, meaning that each nail culd be changed fr every ther nail. This means that gds culd be mass prductin, althugh mass prductin required breaking prductin dwn int smaller and smaller tasks.
Wrkers n lnger started n the prduct and labred t cmplete it. Instead, they might wrk nly ne thusandth f it, ther wrkers cmpleting their wn parts in certain rder. There is nthing strange abut this manufacturing wrk by tday's standards. Highly skilled wrkers were unable t cmpare with the new prductin techniques, as mass prductin allwed gds f high standard t be prduced in greater number than culd ever be dne by hand. But the skilled wrker wasn't the nly lser, the cmmn wrkers lst t. Similar changes frced farmer away. The increased mechanizatin (机械化) f agriculture freed masses f wrkers frm plughing the land and harvesting its crps. They had little chice but t stream tward the rapidly develping industrial centers. Increasingly, standards were set by machines. Wrkers n lnger wned their wn tls, their skill was n lnger valued, and pride in their wrk was n lnger pssible. Wrkers fed, lked after and repaired the machines that culd wrk faster than humans at greatly reduced cst.
1. In this passage, which f the fllwing is NOT cnsidered as a change caused by the use f scientific findings in the prductin f gds?
A. Other frms f energy have taken the place f human pwer.
B. The increased explitatin f wrkers in the 19th century.
C. The increased use f machines t make prducts in less time.[
D. The use f machines prducing parts f the same standard.

A. Many f them had t leave their farmland fr industrial centers.

社会生活类—阅读理解。
Few laws are s effective that yu can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax mre than dubled—t $1. 01 per pack—smkers have jammed telephne“quit lines” acrss the cuntry seeking t kick the habit.
This is nt a surprise t public health advcates. They’ve studied the effect f state tax increases fr years, finding that smkers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nr is it a shck t the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.
The nly wnder is that s many states insist n clsing their ears t the message. Tbacc taxes imprve public health, they raise mney and mst particularly, they deter peple frm taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smkers are addicted. Yet the rate f taxatin varies widely.
In Manhattan, fr instance, which has the highest tax in the natin, a pack f Marlbr Light Kings cst $10. 06 at ne drugstre Wednesday. In Charlestn, S. C. , where the 7-cent-a-pack tax is the lwest in the natin, the price was $4. 78.
The influence is bvius.
In New Yrk, high schl smking hit a new lw in the latest surveys—13. 8%, far belw the natinal average. By cmparisn, 26% f high schl students smke in Kentucky. Other lw-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smking recrds.
Hal Rgers, Representative frm Kentucky, like thse wh are against high tbacc taxes, argues that the burden f the tax falls n lw-incme Americans“wh chse t smke.”
That’s true. But there is mre reasn in keeping future generatins f lw-incme wrkers frm getting hked in the first place. As fr tday’s adults, if the new tax drives them t quit, they will have mre t spend n their families, cut their risk f cancer and heart disease and feel better.
1. The text is mainly abut .
A. the price f cigarettes
B. the rate f teen smking
C. the effect f tbacc tax increase
D. the differences in tbacc tax rate
2. What des the authr think is a surprise?
A. Teen smkers are price sensitive.
B. Sme states still keep the tbacc tax lw.
C. Tbacc taxes imprve public health.
D. Tbacc industry fiercely fights the tax rise.
3. The underlined wrd“deter” in Paragraph 3 mst prbably means .
A. discurage B. remve C. benefit D. free
4. Rgers’ attitude twards the lw-incme smkers might be that f .
A. tlerance B. uncncern C. dubt D. sympathy
5. What can we learn frm the last paragraph?
A. The new tax will be beneficial in the lng run.
B. Lw-incme Americans are mre likely t fall ill.
C. Future generatins will be hked n smking.
D. Adults will depend mre n their families.
