When it comes to singling out those who have made a difference in all our lives, you cannot overlook Henry Ford. A historian a century from now might well conclude that it was Ford who most influenced all manufacturing, everywhere, even to this day, by introducing a new way to make cars-one, strange to say, that originated in slaughterhouses (屠宰场).
Back in the early 1900’s, slaughterhouses used what could have been called a "disassembly line". Ford reversed this process to see if it would speed up production of a part of an automobile engine called a magneto. Rather than have each worker complelely assemble a magneto, one of its elements was placed on a conveyer, and each worker, as it passed, added another component to it, the same one each time. Professor David Hounshell of the University of Delaware, an expert on industrial development, tells what happened:
"The previous day, workers carrying out the entire process had averaged one assembly every 20 minutes. But on that day, on the line, the assembly team averaged one every 13 minutes and 10 seconds per person. "
Within a year, the time had been reduced to five minutes. In 1913, Ford went all the way. Hooked together by ropes, partially assembled vehicles were towed (拖，拉) past workers who completed them one piece at a time. It wasn’t long before Ford was turning out several hundred thousand cars a year, a remarkable achievement then. And so efficient and economical was this new system that he cut the price of his cars in half, to $260, putting them within reach of all those who, up until that time, could not afford them. Soon, auto makers the world over copied him. In fact, he encouraged them to do so by writing a book about all of his innovations, entitled Today and Tomorrow. The Age of the Automobile has arrived.

C is sometimes referred to as a ’high -level （） language’. Some people think that’s an insult, but it’s actually a deliberate and significant aspect of the language. If you have （） in assembly language, youll probably find C very natural and comfortable (although if you continue to focus too heavily on machine - level details, youll probably end up with unnecessarily non- portable programs). If you havent programmed in assembly language, you may be frustrated by C ’s lack of certain higher - level features. In either case, you should understand why C was de- signed this way: so that seemingly - simple constructions expressed in C would not expand to arbitrarily expensive ( in time or （） ) machine language constructions when （） . If you write a C program simply and succinctly, it is likely to result in a succinct, efficient machine language executable. If you find that the （） resulting from a C program is not efficient, it’s probably because of something silly you did, not because of something the compiler did behind your back which you have no control over. In any case, there’s no point in complaining about C’s low - level flavor: C is what it is.
