GRADE 9

Read the text and answer the questions 13

to 15 according to the text.

After the war, several American companies

also began to make ballpoint pens. Soon
the market was flooded with poor-quality
pens, which often leaked or would not write
at all. The American public became
frustrated and stopped buying ballpoint
pens.Then, in 1954, Parker Pens, a U.S.
company, devised a much better ballpoint
pen and the public started buying the pens
again.

A) Because he wanted to earn a lot of

money
B) Because he was a journalist and he was
fed up with writing with messy pens.
C) Because in World War two pilots
needed it.
D) Because he wanted to start a new life in
Argentina.

14. Why did the Americans stop buying pens?

Fe z a l a r E d u c a t i o n a l I n s t i t u t i o n s

The ball point pen is an instrument for

writing on paper. It has a small, round ball
made of brass, steel, or tungsten at its tip.
When in use, ink from a cartridge inside the
pen flows down to its tip. As the ball
rotates, it picks up ink and deposits it on
the paper.
Laszlo and Georg Biro of Hungary designed
the first commercial ballpoint pen in1935.
Laszlo, a journalist, was tired of working
with messy pens and had noticed how
newspaper ink dried very quickly and did
not smudge. He decided to construct a
pen, with Georgs help, that used this kind
of ink. The amount of ink coming out of
their pen was controlled by a tiny ball
bearing at its tip.
When World War Two broke out, the Biro
brothers moved to Argentina. They found
financial backers for their invention and, in
1943, established Biro Pens of Argentina to
manufacture their pens. Their first design
had problems so the pen was redesigned.
The redesigned pens sold quite well in
Argentina, but they became immensely
popular in other countries after British
fighter-plane pilots used them during the
war (the pens did not leak at high altitudes).

13. Why did Lazslo decided to produce a ball

point pen?

15. What happened after 1950s in ballpoint pen

market?
A) A French company, Bic, started
manufacturing pens and bought some
of its rivals.
B) Lazslo brothers continued to sell
millions of pens.
C) U.S company started to sell better and
more expensive pens.
D) People stopped buying ball point pens.

In 1950, Bic, a French company, had also

begun to manufacture improved ballpoint
pens. Over the years, Bic bought many of
its manufacturing rivals and was soon
producing and selling more pens than any
other company. Today, Bic produces
billions of inexpensive but good-quality
pens that are used throughout the world.

2012 - 2013 GRT 2

A) Because the pens in the market wasnt

designed beatifully.
B) Because the pen were being produced
in Argentina.
C) Because the market was of full of low
quality pens which often leaked or
didnt write.
D) Because British pilot were using the
pens.
