Model Test 7
It's widely believed that we have already lived in the age of technology. It is
sometimes 1 as all the material products of a culture, but it also includes the scientific knowledge that
is 2 to material production.
In the early twentieth century, Thorstein Veblen stressed the role
of 3 invention in bringing about social changes. He thought that a new
invention 4 slowly lead to changes in social manner and
attitudes. 5 each invention makes more inventions possible,
the 6 of technological development tends to speed up. Benjamin Franklin experimented
with 7 in the eighteenth century, but it was a hundred
years 8 . Thomas Edison moved from theory and experiment to
practical 9 . In the hundred years since Edison's invention,
the 10 of electricity has led to tens of thousands of
inventions, 11 engines, automobiles, airplanes and computers. What to
do 12 this increasing number of invention and
13 to control the social changes they produce give 14
to some of the greatest demands 15 our time.
Industrialization-the process of moving from hand tools to power
16 - has led to a number of social changes. A 17
economy requires specialized factory workers and trained 18
to watch over them; therefore, the required level of education 19
to increase. The growth of a more educated middle class tends to
20 inequalities by distributing income more widely.
