2.
Henry Ford was born in1863 inthe state ofMichigan.He grew up on a farm but he
did not want to become a farmer.He left school when he was sixteen.He wanted
to make cars so he went to work as a mechanic.
In
1896 Ford built his first car.This car was very different from the cars of
today.For example,its wheels were bicycle wheels.
In
1902 Ford built a car that won an important race.This car was the fastest car
that had ever been built.It went seventy miles per hour.By then Ford had
enough money to start the Ford Motor Company.
At
this time cars cost a lot of money.Only very rich people bought cars.Ford had
a dream.He wanted to build a car that many people could afford.Ford was sure
that,if people could afford cars,they would buy them.He said,‘everybody
wants to be somewhere he isn’t.’
Ford’s
plan was to make all his cars the same.Cars that are all the same take less
time and less money to make.Then Ford could charge less money for these cars.
In 1908 Ford produced his famous Model T Ford.The Model T sold for $850.This
was much cheaper than other cars but still more than most people could pay.
One
day Ford visited a meat-packing factory.There he saw beef carcasses being
moved from one worker to another.Each worker had a particular job to do when
the beef carcasses reached him.Ford realized he could use this assembly line
method to build cars.
It
took less than two hours to build a car on the assembly line.Before,it took
fourteen hours.Ford was able to drop the price of the Model T to $265.
Ford’s
dream had come true.The Model T was now a car that many people could afford.

had been sold.
