Question

Describe the changes that Carnegie talks about in the first paragraph of the article.

Answer 1

Answer:

"Arnold Carnegie" was one of the wealthiest men in America. He was successful in expanding the American steel industry. He wrote an article entitled, "Gospel of Wealth." This was written in order to inspire the wealthy people to use their richness for societal development.

Explanation:

In the article's first paragraph, Carnegie talks about how human lives have changed over hundreds of years. He describes the change as a significant one because, for him, it is beneficial to all. The change in society is very huge, such that he mentioned its similarities to the gap between a millionaire's house to that of the laborer's home. The change instilled development in the society. For example, the Indians were more civilized now than before. This is, primarily, because of what wealth can do to people. The way people dress, eat and socialize are now different compared before. Wealth resulted to the "modern civilization" that we have today.
