Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
The technology of the North American colonies did not differ strikingly from that of Europe
, but in one respect, the colonists enjoyed a great advantage
. Especially by
comparison with Britain, Americans had a wonderfully plentiful supply of wood. The first colonists did not, as many people imagine, find an entire continent covered
by a climax forest. Even along the Atlantic seaboard, the forest was broken at many points
. Nevertheless. All sorts of fine trees abounded, and through the early colonial
period, those who pushed westward encountered new forests .
By the end of the colonial era, the price of wood had risen slightly in eastern cities. But wood was still extremely
abundant. The availability of wood brought advantages that have seldom been appreciated
. Wood was a foundation of the economy
. Houses and all manner of buildings were made
of wood to a degree unknown in Britain .
Secondly, wood was used as fuel for heating and cooking
. Thirdly, it was used as the source of important industr
i al compounds, such as
potash ,
an i
ndustrial alkali ;
charcoal, a component of gunpowder ;
and tann i
c acid, used for tanning leather
. The supply of wood conferred advantages but had some negative aspects as well.
Iron at that time was produced by heating iron ore with charcoal. Because Britain was so stripped of trees, she was unable to exploit her rich iron mines
. But the American
colonies had both iron ore and wood ;
iron production was encouraged and became
successful. However, when Britain developed coke smelting, the Colonies did not follow suit because they had plenty of wood and besides
, charcoal iron was stronger than coke
iron .
Coke smelting led to technologic innovations and was linked to the emergence of the Industrial Revolution
. In the early nineteenth century, the former colonies lagged
behind Britain in industrial development because their supply of wood led them to cling to charcoal iron.
Question 36: What does the passage mainly discuss? A. The advantages of using wood in the colonies
. B. The effects of an abundance of wood
on the colonies .
C. The roots of the Industrial Revolution. D. The difference between charcoal
