Andrew Carnegie, known as the King of Steel, built the steel
industry in the United States, and, in the process, became one of the
wealthiest men in America. His success resulted in part of his ability to【M1】______
sell the product and in part from his policy of expending during periods【M2】______
of economic decline, when most of his competitors were reducing their
investments. Carnegie believed that individuals should progress
through hard work, but he also felt strongly that wealthy should use 【M3】______
their fortunes for the benefit of society. He opposed charity, preferred【M4】______
instead to provide educational opportunities that would allow others
help themselves. "He who dies rich, dies disgraced," he often said. 【M5】______
Among his more noteworthy contribution to society are those that【M6】______
bear his name, including the Carnegie Institute of Pittsburgh, which has
a library, a museum of fine art, and a museum of national history. He【M7】______
also founded a school of technology that is now part of
Carnegie-Mellon University. Others philanthrophic gifts are the 【M8】______
Carnegie Endowment for International Peace to promote understanding
among nations, the Carnegie Institute of Washington to fund scientific【M9】______
research, and Carnegie Hall to provide a center for the arts.
It’s safe to say a few Americans have been left untouched by Andrew【M10】______
Carnegie’s generosity. His contributions of more than five million dollars
established 2,500 libraries in small communities throughout the country
and formed the nucleus of the public library system that we all enjoy
today.
