The word horsepower(马力) was first used two hundred years ago. James Watt had made the world’s first widely used steam engine. He had no way of telling people exactly how powerful it was, for at that time there were no units for measuring power.
Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in
one minute. He called that unit one horsepower. With this unit he could measure the work his steam engine could do.
He discovered that a horse could lift a 3300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute. His engine could lift a 3300-pound weight 100 feet
in one minute.
Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse, Watt called
it a ten horsepower engine. BABAC

tried to throw out some more sand; but it was hard. They tried to break the icy sand with their knives, but it was not easy. The work was slow and they were still falling, so they had to drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake and made a black hole in the ice.

Passage 4
Until the twentieth century cigarettes smoking was not a widespread habit. The cigarette industry started in the 1870’s with the development of the cigarette manufacturing machines. It helped produce great numbers of cigarettes very quickly and reduced the price greatly. And consequently more and more people, both men and women, began to smoke cigarettes. Men as a group, however, smoke more than women. But the highest proportion of smokers is found in the age group of 24 - 44, regardless of sex difference.
Income, education, and occupation all play a part in determining a person’s smoking habits. City people smoke more than people living on farms. Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes. 0n the other hand, if a well-educated man with a higher income smokes at all, he is likely to smoke more packs of cigarettes per day.
The situation is somewhat different for women. There are slightly more smokers among women with higher family incomes and higher education than among the lower income and lower education groups. These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.
Among teenagers the picture is similar. There are fewer teenaged smokers from upper-income, well-educated families, and fewer from families living in farm areas- High school students who are preparing for college are less likely to smoke than those who do not plan to continue their education after high school. Children are most likely to start smoking if one or both their parents smoke CBDBC
21. When did cigarettes smoking begin to become a widespread habit among men
and women according to the author? A. Before 1870’s.
B. In the year of 1870.
C. When cigarettes were made in large numbers. D. When women began to smoke cigarettes.
22. Among which group of people are you likely to find the highest proportion
of cigarettes smokers according to the passage?
A. Teenagers. B. People in their thirties. C. People over fifty. D. Students under twenty. 23. Which of the following has little to do with a person’s smoking habit?
A. How much money he earns. B. What kind of job he does. C. How much education he has got. D. How long he has worked. 24. Which is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Well-paid men with good education are more likely to smoke.
B. Women with high family income and good education are more likely to smoke.
C. Generally speaking, well-educated women with higher income smoke very
few cigarettes.
D. well-educated men usually smoke more packs of cigarettes than well-educated women. 25. What does the author mean by writing “among teenagers the picture is
similar” in the last paragraph?

among teenagers.
