China on Saturday opened the world’s most elevated railway(高架铁路) with the first pair of passenger trains traveling across the “roof of the world”.
Two trains set off at Golmud and Lhasa, the two start-up points of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway that is dubbed an “engineering marvel” that has linked Tibet with the rest of China for the first time.
Construction of the Qinghai-Tibet railroad is a long-cherished dream of generations of the Chinese people. A passenger train coded “Qing 1” pulled out from the Golmud station at 11:05 a.m. Some 1,142 kilometers away. Tibet’s regional capital Lhasa saw off a train bound for Lanzhou, capital of northwest China’s Gansu Province, at 11:12a.m. The train, coded “Tibet 2” carries about 700 passengers in 16 compartments(车厢) and is expected to arrive in Lanzhou in 30 hours.
Norbu , a 28-year-old Tibetan farmer from Gonggar , left home before daybreak to join the celebrations at Lhasa railway station and to catch a glimpse of the train . I’ll board a train myself sometime to visit the inland areas.”
Trains traveling across the roof of the world , with extra oxygen pumped into the cabins to prevent passengers from suffering altitude sickness , will traverse (穿越) a mountain pass sitting 5.072 meters above sea level as it rises up to the Tibetan plateau , and will drive though the Hoh Xil , China’s largest area of uninhabited land .
The cars were installed (安装) with environment-friendly toilets , wastewater deposit tank and garbage treatment facilities to protect environment along the railroad . All the Chinese characters that appear on the electronic screen in each railway car have been translated into Tibetan and English .
The Qinghai-Tibet railway is 1,956 kilometers long, with 960 km of the track located 4,000 meters above the sea level and the highest point at 5,072 meters . The project is dubbed an “engineering marvel” because people used to think the long-lasting ice and snow along the route could never support tracks and trains .

A.Qinghai-Tibet Rail Moves Across the “Roof of the World”
B.Construction of the Qinghai-Tibet Railroad is Great

The economy of the United States after 1952 was the economy of a well-fed, almost fully employed people. Despite occasional alarms, the country escaped any postwar depression and lived in a state of boom. An economic survey of the year 1955, a typical year of the 1950’s, may be typical as illustrating the rapid economic growth of the decade. The national output was value at 10 percent above that of 1954 (1955 output was estimated at 392 billion dollars). The production of manufacturers was about 40 percent more than it had averaged in the years immediately following World War 2. The country’s business spent about 30billion dollars for new factories and machinery. National income available for spending was almost a third greater than it had been it had been in 1950. Consumers spent about 256 billion dollars; that is about 700 million dollars a day or about twenty-five million dollars every hour, all round the clock. Sixty-five million people held jobs and only a little more than two million wanted jobs but could not find them.
Only agriculture complained that it was not sharing in the room. To some observers this was an ominous echo of the mid 1920’s. As farmer’s share of their products declined, marketing costs rose. But there were, among the observers of the national economy, a few who were not as confident as the majority. Those few seemed to fear that the boom could not last and would eventually lead to the opposite-depression.

A) The Agricultural Trends of 1950’s

C) U.S. Economy in the 50’s
D) The Federal Budget of 1952
73. In Line 4, the word “boom” could best be replaced by______.
A) nearby explosion

C) general public support
D) rapid economic growth
74. Which of the following were LEAST satisfied with the national economy in the 1950’s?
A) Economists
B) Framers
C) Politicians
D) Steelworkers
75. The passage states that income available for spending in the U.S. was greater in 1955 than in 1950. How much was it?
