2. go to Encyclopedia Online at http://library. spu.ac.th search for the history of automobiles or computer. Summerize the information you get.

The history of the automobile is not very old, is not very romantic and is really not especially American. However the modern history of our country is centered around the automobile and there must be more than a million stories to tell about America's love affair with the car.
The thought of self-propelled land transportation machines was around for many years before Karl Benz of Germany introduced his three wheeled internal combustion engine vehicle in 1885. That was not the first attempt at producing a land vehicle, but it was the first commercially practical attempt. All the way back to 1769 in Paris, France a peculiar looking steam driven machine invented by Nicholas-Joseph Cugnot was prowling the streets at the break-neck speed of 2.5 miles per hour. In England in 1801 another steam driven engine was made which had the capacity of carrying up to 8 passengers. The first practical gasoline powered vehicle was built in 1826 by a Londoner named Samuel Brown. It was quite powerful in that it was capable of generating up to four horsepower. Research was going on all over the world using a variety of fuel sources. In Belgium, an attempt to use liquid hydrogen-carbon fuel resulted in a road test in 1863 traveling a distance of 12 miles in just 3 hours. In 1864 an Austrian named Siegfried Marcus introduced a gasoline powered hand cart and later in 1875 he introduced a full sized car. Some inventors fed off of other people's ideas, and some made up their own ideas. To say who was first was not practical and quite honestly was not necessary.
During the 1890's electric power was one of the most popular types of propellant for vehicles. Technology had produced many different types of batteries and fuel cells. The electric trolley had found popular public acceptance so it was natural for electric cars to follow.

The Edison Cell, obviously naned for Thomas Edison, became the energy of choice for many vehicle makers. As far back as 1875 people objected to the noise of gasoline powered cars and some cities actually banned them from their streets. By 1900 electric cars and steam driven cars practically dominated the vehicle industry. Only 22% of the vehicles made were gasoline powered. By 1912, Thanks to the inventive mind of Charles Kettering, the electric starter had replaced the hand crank on gasoline powered vehicles. By the 1920's the industry was almost dominated by gasoline engines.
We certainly have come a long way since James Watt discovered that a horse could lift 150 pounds 220 feet in 1 minute, thus introducing the term "horsepower


3.What is the difference between general book and referece book?

General books on reading material is interesting, general.
Reference book is to provide information and identify the source. D to be a broadly based content. Information that came from.

4. When do you need to search information from the reference collection

:When i want to find the detail for work and study.

5. What type of reference collection that you like to use most? And why?
Dictonary because it can help me to information about word, meanings,spelling,pronuciation,syllabication and usage.

6. Read some book and summary 1 page

As you think about your outline, you should turn your basic question into a basic answer, a positive statment of your main point. For the basic question about TV. commercail,one possible answer is that they influence us by promising instant satisfaction of our desires, instant improvement in our lives, When you turn your basic question into an answer of this kind you define your writing object in positive terms you will develop as you shape the from begining to end.
