问题 Although a number of inventions not only change society but also bring the inventor enormous pride and even paychecks, some fizzle out because they just do not succeed as hoped. In fact, even the most famous inventors encounter some failed concepts. One of the world’s most prestigious inventors, Thomas Alva Edison, creator of the light bulb and the phonograph, tried to introduce the idea of cabinets and other furniture made out of concrete. This furniture was too heavy and too expensive to ever become popular, thus proving that nobody is always right. [br] Which of the following statements about Edison can be inferred from the passage?
选项 A、Edison was one of the world’s most esteemed and influential inventors.
B、Concrete furniture was the only one of Edison’s inventions to ultimately fail.
C、The light bulb and the phonograph were extremely successful inventions by Edison.
答案 A, C
解析 The best answer is A and C. Choice A is indicated because the passage calls Edison one of the world’s most prestigious inventors. Choice C is indicated because the light bulb and the phonograph are given as examples of why Edison is so esteemed.
