1. National standards for paved roads were in place by 1921.
找到的是第二段首句:With the increase in auto production, private turnpike companies under local authorities began to spring up, and by 1921 there were 387, 000 miles of paved roads.
此句只是讲到1921年,有多少paved roads. 是否有national standards,要继续看后面。下一句很长:
Many were built using specifications of 19th century Scottish engineers Thomas Telford and John MacAdam , whose specifications stressed the importance of adequate drainage.
这一句漫无目的读下去,只有两个结果,一是死在路上,因为后面不但长而且是很怪异的东西。二是终于读出来了,但考试时间已到!横竖是个死。
其实最多读到19th century Scottish engineer就完全够了。标准就是 考点 。我们现在要知道的是那时有没有national standards国家标准,用的是十九世纪苏格兰某工程师的东西,这个工程师是谁重要否?它的那个东西有什么特点重要否?无关!是不是国家标准才是重要的。有人敏感一点,已得出没有国家标准。如果不确信,下一句就清楚了:Beyond that, there were no national standards for size, weight restrictions, or commercial signs.
