29、quately expose film. The best source of illumination for movie production was nature sunlight. Besides the sunny weather, film producers were also drawn to Hollywood because of its open spaces and wide variety of natural scenery.Another reason was the distance of Southern California from New Jersey,

30、 which made it more difficult for Thomas Edison to enforce his film patents. At that time, Edison owned almost all the patents relevant to film production. As a result, in the East, movie producers acting independently out of Edisons Motion Picture Patents Company were often accused by Edison. But i

31、n Los Angeles, things were different.

37、You get to the airport, quickly moving through the crowds on the uneven pavement, rushing to check in.

38、tter and published their findings in the science journal Proceedings of the Royal Society AThey also suggested some solutions to overcome this modern-day problem.To learn more about the issue, they put a suitcase on a treadmill (跑步机) and observed what happened.It was soon noted that the “wobble” was

39、 actually a result of repeated actions that caused the suitcase to sway from side to side. They discovered that if one of the wheels encountered an obstacle such as a small bump, it jumped into the air for just a moment and then banged back down to the ground. That second action caused the opposite

40、wheel to lift off the ground and then to bang back down, causing the first to lift again and so on. This swaying increased as the luggage was pulled along.“The suitcase is a fun way to tackle the problem, but the study would be the same for any trolley with two wheels or blades (桨叶),” Sylvain Courre

41、ch du Pont, lead author of the study, told BBC News. “So it will be the same for a caravan (大篷车) or maybe also for airplanes.”Instead of slowing down when we see a rocky part of the path, the scientists recommended doing the exact opposite and speeding up. This is because going faster gives the whee

42、ls less time to rise and fall, preventing the case from swaying. They also said that reducing the angle of the suitcase by lowering its handle to the ground would help keep it steady.“These findings could help researchers simulate and design better rolling suitcases and other pulled trolleys, such a

43、s towed trailers ,” Courrech du Pont added.With these masterminds (智者) working on perfecting our suitcase problems, wobbly luggage may soon be a thing of history, leaving us to enjoy our travels.1、The main purpose of the first two paragraphs is to _.Ashow the importance of a good wheeled suitcase fo
