 Question 12 – 18 based on the text below
The railroad industry could not have grown as large as it did without steel. The first rails were
made of iron. But iron rails were not strong enough to support heavy trains running at high speeds.
Railroad executives wanted to replace them with steel rails because steel was ten or fifteen times
stronger and lasted twenty times longer. Before the 1870's, however, steel was too expensive to be
widely used. It was made by a slow and expensive process of heating. Stirring, and reheating iron ore.
Then the inventor Henry Bessemer discovered that directing a blast of air at melted iron in a furnace
would burn out the impurities that made the iron brittle. As the air shot, through the furnace, the
bubbling metal would erupt in showers of sparks. When the fire cooled, the metal had been changed,
or converted, to steel. The Bessemer converter made possible the mass production of steel. Now three
to five tons of iron could be changed into steel in a matter of minutes.
Just when the demand for more and more steel developed, prospectors discovered huge new
deposits of iron ore in the Mesabi Range, a 120-mile-long region in Minnesota near Lake Superior.
The Mesabi deposits were so near the surface that they could be mined with steam' shovels. Barges
and steamers carried the iron ore through Lake Superior to depots or: the southern shores of Lake
Michigan and Lake Erie.

14 According to the passage, how did the Bessemer method make the mass production of steel possible?
.
a. It directed air at melted iron in a furnace. removing all impurities.
b. It slowly heated iron ore, then stirred it and heated it again.
c. It changed iron ore into iron, which was a substitute for steel.
d. It could quickly find deposits of iron ore under the ground.
15 The furnace that Bessemer used to process iron into steel was called a …
.
a. heater c. converter
b. steamer d. shower
16 According to the passage. where were large deposits of iron one uncovered?
.
a. In Pittsburgh c. Near Lake Michigan
b. In the Mesabi Range d. Near Lake Erie
17 In line 17 the words 'Barges and steamers could best be replaced by which of the following?
.
