The men who【C3】______ the machines of the Industrial Revolution come from many backgrounds and many occupations. Many of them were more inventors than scientists.

选项
A、employed
B、created
C、operated
D、controlled
答案
B
解析
本题测试的是根据上下文选择词义的能力。文章第1段中谈的是有创造性的人在工业革命中的作用,下文又多次提到了发明家(inventor),所以本题答案理所当然地应是B项created。 C项operated强调的是“操作”,D项controlled强调的是“控制”,就其所在句子的局部搭配而言,并无不可,但放在这里的上下文中意思就不妥了。A项employed与事物连用时,可以表示“使用"的意思;employ与人连用时,常表示“雇用"的意思,但用在这里均不合适。
