Volkswagen AG is a German automobile manufacturer and one of the largest companies worldwide. It was founded by the German govern­ment in 1937 to mass-produce a low-priced “people’s car”. Its headquar­ters are in Wolfsburg.

The company was originally operated by the German Labor Front, a Nazi organization; and Ferdinand Porsche was brought in to design the car. Production was interrupted by World War II, and by the end of the war both the Volkswagen factory and the city of Wolfsburg were in ruins. Allied attempts to revive the West German auto industry after the war centered on the Volkswagen, and in little more than a decade the compa­ny was producing half of West Germany’s motor vehicles.

Exports to most parts of the world were strong, but because of the car’s small size, unusual rounded appearance, and historical connections with Nazi Germany, sales in the United States were originally slow. This changed in 1959, when an American advertising agency, Doyle Dane Bernbach, began a landmark advertising campaign, dubbing the car the Beetle because of its shape and pointing to its size as an advantage to the consumer. This campaign was very successful, and for some years follow­ing, the Beetle was the leading automobile import sold in the United States.

The Volkswagen hardly changed from its original design, however, and by 1974, with increasing competition from other compact foreign cars, Volkswagen came near bankruptcy. This spurred the company to develop newer, sportier car models, among them the Rabbit and its suc­cessor, the Golf.

In 1960 the state essentially denationalized the company by selling 60 per cent of its stock to the public. Volkswagen acquired the Audi auto company in 1965. Volkswagen and its affiliates operate plants throughout the world. In addition to cars, the company produces vans and minibuses, automotive parts and engines. Its core market is the European Union and its major subsidiaries include well-known brands like Audi, Bentley, Skoda, Lambordgini, Bugatti, SEAT.

72. In the 1930s Volkswagen AG was the company which …

1 .designed a car for the rich

2 .was bought by Ferdinand Porsche

3 .was engaged in mass production

73. The company nearly went bankrupt because …

1.it lost fierce competition with foreign cars

2.it made drastic changes in the car design.

3.it opened overseas subsidiaries

74.The Beetle became popular in the USA due to.

1.its strong exports

2.its fashionable design

3.a successful promotion campaign

75. After denationalization Volkswagen started.

1.restoring production

2.introducing new products

3.selling its stock to the public

Few men have influenced the development of American English to the extent that Noah Webster did.

Born in West Hartford, Connecticut, in 1758, Webster graduated from Yale in 1778 and began to practice law in Hartford. Later, when he turned to teaching, he discovered how inadequate the available school­books were for the children of a new and independent nation. In response to the need for truly American textbooks, Webster published A Grammat­ical Institute of the English Language, a three-volume work that consisted of a speller, a grammar, and a reader. The first volume, which was origi­nally known as The American Spelling Book, was so popular that even­tually it sold more than 80 million copies and provided him with a consi­derable income for the rest of his life. While teaching, Webster began work on the Compendious Dictionary of the English Language, which was published in 1806, and was very successful.

In 1807, Noah Webster began his greatest work, An American Dictio­nary of the English Language. In preparing the manuscript, he devoted ten years to the study of English and its relationship to other languages, and sev­en more years to the writing itself. Published in two volumes in 1828, An American Dictionary of the English Language has become the recognized authority for usage in the United States. Webster’s purpose in writing it was to demonstrate that the American language was developing distinct mean­ings, pronunciations, and spellings from those of British English. He is re­sponsible for advancing simplified spelling forms: Theater and Center instead of Theatre and Centre; Color and Honor instead of Colour and Honour.

Webster was the first author to gain copyright protection in the USA by being awarded a copyright for his American Speller. He continued, for the next fifty years, to lobby for improvements in the protection of intellectual properties, that is, authors’ rights. In 1840 Webster brought out a second edi­tion of his dictionary, which included 70,000 entries instead of original 38,000. The name Webster has become synonymous with American dictio­naries. This edition served as the basis for the many revisions that have been produced by others, ironically, under the uncopyrighted Webster name.

72. A Grammatical Institute of the English Language was written because…

1. there were no available textbooks in those days

2. schoolbooks were not appropriate for American children

3. spelling was hard to teach

73. Webster earned a lifetime income from …

2. An American Dictionary of the English Language

3. The American Spelling Book

74. Noah Webster contributed to the protection of.

1. human rights

2. intellectual properties

3. law

75. Webster’s purpose for writing An American Dictionary of the English Language was…

1. to show the differences between American English and British English

2. to prove the fact that American English was the exact replica of British English

3. to become the recognized authority in British English.
