Twenty years ago my company sent me back to school for further education. So I went back to school three years after graduating from college.
I was a little bit nervous, so I tried to prepare myself the best I could. I bought all my textbooks before the classes started. Then I went to the school the week before and found exactly where my classroom was. I packed my bag full of books and left early on the morning of the class to be sure that I got there on time.
We all crowded into the classroom and the professor introduced himself to the class. He wrote his contact information on the blackboard and told us to write it down. I was just opening up my bag to get out a notebook when I realized that I didn’t have one. I searched through my bag for a piece of paper, but I had none.
I asked the student seated at the desk next to me, “Excuse me, could I borrow a piece of paper, please?” He looked at me a little strangely, but gave me several pieces.
I was so embarrassed. Here I was on my first day of class and I had not even brought any paper with me. I opened my bag again to get out a pen to write down the teacher’s contact information. No pen. I got the attention of the student next to me again. “Excuse me, could I borrow a pen, please?”

Over the last few centuries, there have been many changes in our lives.
To start with, people were not able to travel such a long distance in such a short time in the past. Planes were not very popular at that time because they used to be a very expensive way to travel. Nowadays, we have fast, comfortable cars, and more and more people can travel by plane.
Secondly, in the past, people had to work much harder because they did not have the tools that we have today. Today, most of the difficult and dangerous work is done by computers and machines.
Thirdly, in the past, the living conditions were not as good as they are now. There were no bathrooms or running water in many houses, and many people could not buy things like fridges, TV sets or washing machines. Now, most families have several of these things.
Finally, nowadays, more and more people have the chance to get a good education. In the past, there were fewer schools and the quality of education was much poorer. Also, it is much easier to find the educational materials that you need on the Internet now.
The scientific and technological development in the world is amazing. Life now is much faster and busier than it used to be. And we are still creating new things to make our lives better and easier.

A. was made to work B. was made work
C. made to work D. made work
A 【解析】句意:过去,这个可怜的人每天都要工作很长一段时间。考查被动语态。由题干可知本句的主语the poor man是动作的承受者,所以应用被动语态,其结构为“be+动词过去分词”,所以排除C、D选项;根据In the past可知时态应用一般过去时,主语为the poor man所以系动词be用was;make为使役动词,其过去分词为made,用于被动语态时后面的to不能省略,因此排除...查看答案和解析>>
