16、g steamboat travel a reality. He was born in Pennsylvania in 1765. As a young man, he set out to make his name as a portrait painter. His career took him to Europe and into the orbit of people with the power to support him politically and financially.Fulton entered London society after he painted Be
17、njamin Franklins portrait. While abroad, Fulton left the arts for a career in shipbuilding. He was interested in the recently-invented steam engine, and thought it could be used to power ships. Fultons vision was not original; many others had entered the field, and the unfortunate inventor John Fitc
18、h had built a working steamship already. But like Henry Ford, Fultons talent lay not in the invention but in the products application in the marketplace. Fulton didnt focus entirely on the steamboat. In 1804, he tested the first submarine successfully, which he had built for the British Royal Navy.
19、His invention would make him a celebrity upon his return to the United States two years later. Fultons partner Robert Livingston obtained an exclusive license for steamboat services on New Yorks Hudson River. It was time for Fulton to deliver.To build an efficient, reliable steamboat, Fulton used a
20、special English steam engine. The ships bottom was flat and its stern was square. The steamboat Clermont made its debut(首次亮相)on August 17, 1807, steaming up the river from New York to Albany, and it soon entered commercial services. The hilly terrain of New York made water transport faster than land
21、 transport, and Fultons boat formerly known as the “North River Steamboat” was a hit. Within five years, Fulton would be running services on six major rivers plus the Chesapeake Bay, and bring in great profits.24. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?A. Henry Ford was as unfortunate as John Fitch.B
22、. Henry Ford was talented in product application.C. Fulton left the arts as he couldnt support himself.D. Fulton was the first to create a working steamship.25. When did Fulton become a celebrity in the United States?A. In 1804.B. In 1806.C. In 1807.D. In 1812.26. What is mentioned about Clermont?A.

24、ercial SteamboatsCJournalists are the major group of people who make their living from writing. Many young people who see themselves as future novelists choose journalism as a way of earning a living while developing their writing skills. Although writing for newspapers and writing for books require
25、 different qualities, the aspiration(志向)to be a great writer is not one to be discouraged in a would-be journalist. Most people want their work to be recognized by others. This helps to give it value. Some people also want themselves to be recognized, so that they have status(地位)in the eyes of socie
26、ty. It is not a bad motive to wish to be famous, but this must never become your main reason for being a journalist. You will not be a good journalist if you care more for impressing your audience than for serving their needs.Knowing the power of the printed or spoken word or image, some people ente
27、r journalism for the power it will give them to influence people. There is a strong belief that journalists control the mass media but the best journalists recognize their role as servants of the people. There is a difference between the desire to influence events for your own sake, and the desire t
28、o do it for other people. You should never use journalism for selfish ends, but you can use it to improve the lives of other people.Curiosity is a natural part of most peoples characters and an important ingredient for any journalist. Lots of young men and women enter the profession with the desire
29、to know more about the world without needing to specialize in limited fields of study. Most journalists tend to know a little bit about a lot of things, rather than a lot about one subject. Knowledge has many uses. It can simply help to make you a fuller and more interesting person. It can also give
