Which of the following titles is most fitting for this passage? 1. Which of the following titles is most fitting for this passage?"Black GoldNew Uses for SteelBessemer Steel ProcessInventions Change Lifestyles "The railroads, with thousands of miles of track, became the biggest customers for steel, but inventorssoon found additional uses for it. Joseph Glidden's barbed wire and McCormick's and Deere's farmmachines helped transform the plains into the food producer of the nation.Steel changed the face of the nation as well, as it made innovative construction possible. One of themost remarkable structures was the Brooklyn Bridge. Completed in 1883, it spanned 1,595 feet of the EastRiver in New York City. Its steel cables were supported by towers higher than any man-made and weight-bearing structure except the pyramids of Egypt. Like those ancient marvels, the completed bridge wascalled a wonder of the world.Around this time, setting the stage for a new era of expansion upward as well as outward, William LeBaron Jenney designed the first skyscraper with a steel frame-the Home Insurance Building in Chicago.Before Jenney had his pioneering idea, the weight of large buildings was supported entirely by their wallsor by iron frames, which limited the buildings' height. With a steel frame to support the weight, however,architects could build as high as they wanted. As structures soared into the air, not even the sky seemed tolimit what Americans could achieve."

The discovery of 1887 brought a new wave in the history of the United States. Iron deposits more than 100 miles long were sighted in the Mesabi Range of Minnesota. The deposit was 3 miles wide and removing carbon from the iron will result in the formation of steel. Bessemer process opened a new opportunity for the mass production of steel. After the realization that steel can be used for railroads, the material shaped the modern world.Option B is the right answer as the paragraph talks about the uses of steel. The paragraph is detailing about the uses of steel and how it was widely used after identifying its scope. Therefore the headline that is suitable for this context is the new uses of steel rather than focusing on the uses and inventions. The paragraph though explains the concepts of manufacturing of steel and the technology of processing of steel, the main focus is upon the discovery of new uses. Option B the new uses of steel is the right answer since the topic is about the mass usage of steel for a different purpose.Option A is wrong as the paragraph is not talking about oil or pepper which is Black Gold. Option C is wrong as the passage did not explain the steel processing or the steps involved in manufacturing the steel. Option D is wrong as the passage is completely about the uses of steel and does not talk anything about lifestyles.
