四、阅读理解

　　I wonder how many of you would want to work in a tall building such as the Empire State Building if you had to climb 102 flights of stairs to reach the top．Not many，I imagine．If it were not for the invention of elevators，or lifts，tall buildings would be unusable．The first lift was just a box suspended on a rope．Using a series of pulleys，a group of oxen or strong men would pull the rope and lift the box to a higher point．Lifts were used only for heavy materials，not passengers．Even in the nineteenth century．When steam power was used to operate the lifts，people didn’t ride them．They didn’t trust the rope that held the box．

　　In 1853，Elisha G．Otis invented the first safe lift．He showed his invention in New York at the Crystal Palace Exhibition．At the exhibition，Otis was pulled up in an open box that was attached to guide rails．When he was lifted far above the visitors，he gave the order to cut the rope．To the amazement of the crowd，the lift did not plummet to floor．Instead，it clamped fast to the guide rails．He had built powerful metal clamps on the carriage as a safety device．The demonstration worked，and people have been riding as passengers in elevators ever since．
