Read the following passage and mark the letter (A, B, C or D) on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions
The railroad industry could not have grown as large as it did without steel The first rails were made of iron But iron rails were not strong enough to support heavy trains running at high speeds Railroad executives wanted to replace them with steel rails because steel was ten or fifteen times stronger and lasted twenty times longer Before the 1870s, however, steel was too expensive to be widely used It was made by a slow and expensive process of heating, stirring, and reheating iron ore Then the inventor Henry Bessemer discovered that directing a blast of air at melted iron in a furnace would burn out the impurities that made the iron brittle As the air shot, through the furnace, the bubbling metal would erupt in showers of sparks When the fire cooled, the metal had been changed, or converted, to steel The Bessemer converter made possible the mass production of steel Now three to five tons of iron could be changed into steel in a matter of minutes
Just when the demand for more and more steel developed, prospectors discovered huge new deposits of iron ore in the Mesabi Range, a 120-mile-long region in Minnesota near Lake Superior The Mesabi deposits were so near the surface that they could be mined with steam shovels
