A land free from destruction, plus wealth, natural resources, and labor supply--all these were important factors, in helping England to become the center for the
Industrial Revolution. (31) they were not enough. Something else was needed to start the industrial process. That "something special" was men-- (32) individuals
who could invent machines, find new sources of power, and establish business organizations to reshape society.
The men who (33) the machines of the Industrial Revolution came from many backgrounds and many occupations. Many of them were (34) inventors than scientists. A
man who is a pure scientist is primarily interested in doing his research (35) . He is not necessarily working so that his findings can be used. An inventor or one
interested in applied science is (36) trying to make something that has a concrete idea. He may try to solve a problem by using the theories (37) science or by
experimenting through trial and error. Regardless of his method, he is working to obtain a specific result: the construction of a harvesting machine, the burning of a
light bulb, or one of (38) other objectives.
Most of the people who developed the machines of the Industrial Revolution were inventors, not trained scientists. A few were both scientists and inventors. Even
those who had (39) or no training in science might not have made their inventions if a groundwork had not been laid by scientists years (40) .

- D.the resuming service in Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport
-
It is curious how often sympathy for the old and infirm takes a form. which actually humiliates them. Their friends, with good will, sometimes lean forward to
rearrange their neckwear, touching their hair or patting their faces--things they would never presume to do, unasked, to one of their contemporaries. An equally
humiliating habit is to talk about old people in front of them as if they were not there, discussing their health.
It is now universally accepted that children should be encouraged to do as much as they can for themselves in order to develop their brains and muscles, but so few
people today seem to have time to allow the elderly the same means of keeping their minds and muscles active. They perform. innumerable services for the old that they
would be much better left to do, even with a struggle, for themselves.
Convenient flats, "motherly" visitors, or organized entertainments cannot make up for the fundamental need which must be satisfied--the need to retain to the end
of life human dignity and the respect of one's fellows.
Many people are not aware that it is rather rude to ______.
- A.talk casually about old people in front of them as if they were not there
- B.show sympathy for the old

- D.there was too much daylight
-
Although no one is certain why migration occurs, there are several theories. One theory claims that prehistoric birds of the Northern Hemisphere were forced south during the Ice Age. As the glaciers melted, the birds came back to their homelands, spent the summer, and then went south again as the ice advanced in winter. In time, the migration became a habit in spite of the disappearance of glaciers.
- Another theory proposes that the ancestral home of all modem birds was the tropics. When the region became overpopulated, many species were crowded north. During the summer, there was plenty of food, but during the winter, scarcity forced them to return t
