关于发明的阅读短篇
In 1780 James Watt produced art efficient steam engine which powered 40 machines in a Glasgow factory. That date is normally taken as the beginning of the Industrial Age. Since then industrial development has changed our way of life more and more. The revolution in communications, for example, has made the world seem much smaller. The invention of the telephones in 1876 by another Scotsman, Bell, and Marconi’s first radio broadcast 19 years later were both important developments. But the Italian inventor
's early radios seem very primitive compared with modern portable radios. These were made possible by the invention of the transistor by W. B. Shockley in the USA in 1948. This device replaced the valve in radios.
There have been many changes in transport, too, since the development of the wheel, 6 000 years ago. Daimler and Benz, both Germans, built one of the first practical petrol-driven motor cars in 1885. Only 18 years later, the Wright brothers, from America, flew their first plane. Now, we have jets and, since the work of Christopher Cockerell in Britain in the 1950
's, the hovercraft.
In medicine, the most significant advance came in 192 8, when Sir Alexander Fleming, also an Englishman, discovered, penicillin, which has saved countless lives since.
1. Which of these was invented or discovered first? Put them in order
A. the telephone B. penicillin C. the transistor D. the steam engine
E. radio F. the plane G. the motor car H. the wheel
