25、Many people believe Henry Ford invented the car. But Henry Ford did not start to build his first car until 1896. That was eleven years after two Germans developed the world's first car. Many people believe Henry Ford invented the production line(生产线) that moved a car's parts(零部件) to the worker, instead of making the worker move to the parts. That is not true, either. Many factory owners used methods of this kind before Ford. What Henry Ford did was to use other people's ideas and make them better. And he made the whole factory a moving production line.
In the early days of the automobile, almost every car maker raced his cars. It was the best way of getting public notice. Henry Ford decided to build a racing car. Ford's most famous race was his first one. It was also the last race in which he drove the car himself.
The race was in 1901, at a field near Detroit. All of the most famous cars had entered, but only two were left: the Winton and Ford. The Winton was famous for its speed. Most people thought the race was over before it began.
The Winton took an early lead. But halfway through the race, it began to lose power. Ford started to gain. And near the end of the race, he took the lead. Ford won the race and defeated the Winton. His name appeared in newspapers and he became wellknown all over the United States. Within weeks of the race, Henry Ford formed a new automobile company. In 1903, a doctor in Detroit bought the first car from the company. That sale was the beginning of Henry Ford's dream. Ford said: “I will build a motor car for most of people. It will be large enough for the family, but small enough for one person to operate and care for. It will be built of the best materials. It will be built by the best men. It will be so low in price that everybody can afford”
The Model T was a car of that kind. It only cost $850. It was a simple machine that drivers could depend on. Doctors bought the Model T. So did farmers. Americans loved the Model T. They wrote stories and songs about it. Thousands of Model T's were built in the first few years.

26、Mother bird is busy

27、Sorry, potato people! Although it’s probably no surprise that French fries are among the worst food you can eat, most of us still don’t believe it. After all, it doesn’t hurt to eat some every once in a while ... right? But some people feel guilty (内疚的) to eat French fries and they have a good reason for that.
According to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, people’s guilty feeling may be well-placed. The research, which researched potato eating in 4,400 older people between ages of 45 and 79 over the course of eight years, shows that eating fried potatoes at least twice a week highly increases our risk of death.
But hold up! Before you completely stop eating potatoes, you should know that it is found that eating potatoes overall (even a lot of them!) wouldn’t kill you. Instead, it’s the type of potato that makes all the difference between life and death.
Eating fried potatoes like French fries at least twice per week increased the risk of death in the study. On the other hand, potatoes that were not fried, such as boiled and baked potatoes, were less likely to cause death.
Why? Potatoes have healthy levels of fiber (纤维) and vitamins, so you can partake without feeling bad. But when it comes to the fried food, you might need to think again. French fries usually have lots of fat and added salt, leading to weight growth. Still, when all is said and done, connection isn’t totally equal to causation (因果关系). More research is needed before certainly concluding that eating French fries alone increases the risk of death.
Luckily, potatoes are still considered as one of your suggested three to five servings of vegetables per day. Just try not to eat the fatty ones, if you can.
【1】What’s the passage mainly about?
A. People’s reasons for feeling guilty.
B. The worst food that should be avoided.
C. A study about potatoes’ effects on people’s health.
D. Research on the relation between French fries and death.
【2】From the findings of the study, we learn that
A. potatoes aren't good for everyone
B. much food can mean life and death
C. we shouldn't eat one type of food too much
D. how food is cooked is important to our health
【3】What does the underlined word “partake” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Share. B. Cook.
C. Eat. D. Buy.
【4】What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A. People shouldn’t eat potatoes any more in daily life.
B. Although potatoes arc a kind of vegetables, we can't eat them.
C. People should eat potatoes which have less fat.
D. Potatoes aren’t allowed to eat by people who are in bad health.
