what about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper (雨刮器) ? shouldn t we know who they are? joan mclean thinks so. in fact, mclean, a professor of physics at mountain university in range, feels so strongly about this matter that she s developed a course on the topic. in addition to learning who invented what , however, mclean also likes her students to learn the answers to the why and how questions. according to mclean, when students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try. her students agree. one young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walking proof of mcleans statement. if i had not heard the story of the windshield wiper s invention, said tommy lee, a senior physics major. i never would have dreamed of tuming my bad experience during a rain storm into something so constructive. lee is currently negotiating to sell his patent to an umbrella producer. so, just what is the story behind the windshield wiper? well, mary anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to new york city. the day was cold and stormy, but anderson still wanted to see the sights, so she jumped aboard a streetcar. noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow b covering the windshield, she found herself wondering why there couldn t be a built - in device for cleaning the window. still wondering about this when she returned home to birmingham, alabama, anderson started drafting out solutions. one of her ideas, a lever (操作杆) on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside, became the first windshield wiper. today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations. it s hard to imagine driving without garrett a. morgan s traffic light. it s equally impossible to picture a world without katherine j. blodgett s innovation that makes glass invisible. can you picture life without clear windows and eyeglasses?【文章解读】这是一篇生活知识类文章阅读。文章主要告诉我们生活中一些有利于我们生活的小发明的发明者也一样值得我们牢记和感谢。32. by mentioning traffic light and windshield wiper , the author indicates that countless inventions are_. a. beneficial, because their inventors are famous b. beneficial, though their inventors are less famous c. not useful, because their inventors are less famous d. not useful, though their inventors are famous【答案】b【命题立意】考查判断推理题。【解析】a有用的，因为它们的发明者很有名；b有用的，尽管他们的发明者不怎么著名；c没有用，因为他们的发明者不出名；d没有用，尽管它们的发明者很著名。根据文章第一段内容结合下文可推断，作者提到交通信号灯、雨刮器等发明，是想说无数的发明对人类十分有益，虽然它们的发明者没有太大的名气。故选b。33. professor joan mclean s course aims to _. a. add color and variety to students campus life b. inform students of the windshield wiper s invention c. carry out the requirements by mountain university d. prepare students to try their own invention【答案】d【命题立意】考查细节辨认题。【解析】根据文章第二段最后一句when students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try. 可知，john mclean教授开设这门课程的目的就是让学生有足够的准备去尝试自己发明东西。故选d。34. tommy lee s invention of the unbreakable umbrella was _. a. not eventually accepted by the umbrella producer b .inspired by the story behind the windshield wiper c. due to his dream of being caught in a rainstorm d. not related to professor joan mclean s lectures【答案】b【命题立意】考查细节辨认题。【解析】通读文章第三段，并根据one young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walking proof of mcleans statement可知，tommy lee发明的“不会折断的雨伞”就是受到了雨刮器背后的故事的激励。故选b。4. 主旨大意题。 35. which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage?
