READING COMPREHENSION
Q: Read the given passage carefully and answer the questions given below
Everyone has a favorite attraction at an amusement park, and I am no different. However, unlike
most people who seem to prefer rollercoasters, my favorite ride is a little more gentle. Every time
I go to Coney Island, Navy Pier, or the Santa Monica Pier, I absolutely have to ride the Ferris
wheel.

The Ferris wheel is simple and yet also quite complex. That is, riding it is easy, but how it works
is complicated. A series of carts are attached to a wheel, which is attached to a rim. That rim rotates
vertically around an axis, and gravity keeps the carts upright. As simple as the ride seems, only
advanced engineers can make safe and fun Ferris wheels.

While the Ferris wheel is not as thrilling as a rollercoaster, it is still very exciting. The fact of being
high in the air makes it so much more entertaining than a lot of rides. I mean, how often do you
hang from that high up in daily life?

Nevertheless, I have to admit, I don’t seek Ferris wheels out because of their excitement. Rather,
I find them very relaxing. At the top of the Ferris wheel, you get beautiful sights of the park. You
also get a sense of calm that you don’t get in the hustle and bustle of the park below.

Additionally, Ferris wheels are also gorgeous to look at when they are lit up at night. In fact, the
original Ferris wheel was designed as much to be seen as to be ridden.

The first Ferris wheel was made by and named after George Washington Gale Ferris, Jr. He
designed it for the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893. It was the tallest attraction there, standing 264
feet high. However, visitors to the fair were impressed by the size of the ride as well as the
mechanics of it. In 1893, anything that was not turned by hand was considered a sight to see. And
the wheel, which was a machine, was truly incredible to see. Further, as one visitor put it, the wheel
was amazing because it seemed to be missing support. That is, it did not look like it could stand
on its own. And yet it did and even rotated!

Ferris wheel technology has only improved since then. The largest in the world is the "Singapore
Flyer," which stands slightly taller than twice what Ferris’s did! Today, the Ferris wheel is the
most common amusement park ride. The next time you’re at an amusement park, don’t just look
up at the impressive wheel in the sky on your way to a newer attraction. Take it for a spin!

A. describe the author’s favorite amusement park rides
B. explain the original design of Ferris wheels and how they work today
