問題詳情
第16~20為題組 The year was 1933 and Percy Shaw was driving home late at night along a dark road. Suddenly, on the road ahead he saw two small, bright green lights—the eyes of a cat! They were reflecting the light from his cars’ headlights. This gave him an idea, and when he got home, he immediately began designing a device which today we know as cat’s eyes. 16 along the center of roads, cat’s eyes help drivers find their way in the dark. Percy Shaw’s idea 17 and soon countries around the world began using cat’s eyes to improve road safety. The invention, 18 was patented in 1934, made its inventor a wealthy man. It is amazing to think that something as simple as cat’s eyes could have inspired a great invention. Perhaps it is because cat’s eyes have long been considered to have special power. 19 ancient times, cat’s eyes have appeared in myths and legends. In ancient Europe, 20 , cat’s eyes were believed to be a window to another world. And thanks to a pair of cat’s eyes, Percy Shaw had an idea for a clever invention that has no doubt saved countless lives.
