Andrew Carnegie, known as the King of Steel, built the steel industry in the
United States, and, in the process, became one of the wealthiest men in America. His
success resulted in part from his ability to sell the product and in part from his policy
of expanding during periods of economic decline, when most of his competitors were
reducing their investments.
Carnegie believed that individuals should progress through hard work, but he
also felt strongly that the wealthy should use their fortunes for the benefit of society.
He opposed charity, preferring instead to provide educational opportunities that would
allow others to help themselves. "He who dies rich, dies disgraced," he often said.
15
Among his more noteworthy contributions to society are those that bear his
name, including the Carnegie Institute of Pittsburgh, which has a library, a museum of
fine arts, and a museum of national history. He also founded a school of technology
that is now part of Carnegie-Mellon University. Other philanthropic gifts are the Car-
negie Endowment for International Peace to promote understanding between nations,
the Carnegie Institute of Washington to fund scientific research, and Carnegie Hall to
provide a center for the arts.
Few Americans have been left untouched by Andrew Carnegie's generosity.
His contributions of more than five million dollars established 2,500 libraries in small
communities throughout the country and formed the nucleus of the public library sys-
tem that we all enjoy today.
With which of the following topics is the passage primarily concerned?
(A) The establishment of the public library system

(B) The work of Carnegie-Mellon University
(C) The building of the steel industry
(D) The philanthropy of Andrew Carnegie
