| His vision would help creating a middle class in the U.S., __1__ one marked by urbanization, rising wages and some free time in which to spend it. When Ford left the family farm at age 16 and __2__ walked eight miles to his first job in Detroit machine shop ,only 2 __3__ out of 8 Americans live in the cities. By World War II that figure __4__ would double, and the affordable Model T was one reason of it. __5__ People flocked to Detroit for jobs, and unless they worked in one of __6__ Henry’s factories, they could afford one of his cars— it is a virtuous circle, and he was the ringmaster. By the time production ceased for the model T in 1927, more than 15 million cars have __7__ been sold— or half the world’s output. Nobody was more of an inspiration to Ford to the great inventor __8__ Thomas Edison. At the turning of the century Edison had blessed __9__ Ford’s pursuit of an efficient, gas-powering car during a chance __10__ meeting at Detroit’s Edison illuminating Co., where Ford was chief engineer. 答案: 1.将creating改为create。help 后面一般接(to)do sth 2.将it改为them。Spend的宾语实际上是rising wages,为复数,所以应该用代词them。 3.Detroit前加a。Shop是可数名词,所以前面要有限定词。 4.将live改为lived。讲述的是福特16岁的时候的事情。 5.将of 改为for。The reason for…是 固定搭配,表示……的原因。 6.将unless改为if。通过逻辑分析,句子意思是,如果他们能在福特的工厂工作,他们就能买得起他的汽车—这是一个良性循环。 7.将have改为had。“到1927年截止”,这里必须是用过去完成时。 8.将第二个to改为than。这是一个“more…than”的结构。意思是“没有人比爱迪生给福特的激励更大”。 9.将turning改为turn,或者在turning后加上point 10.powering改为powered。power 作为动词,意思是“给……提供动力”,所以这里应该用被动的过去分词。 |
