Ann spent two years in Africa in the early 1960s. She worked as a nurse there. Ann saw babies wrapped in bright cloth tied to their mothers' backs. The babies snuggled close to their mothers, and the mothers could use their hands to do other things. In 1964, Ann had her own baby. She tried making a carrier like the one African mothers used. The carrier was like a backpack. Everywhere Ann went with her baby in the carrier, people asked, "Where can I buy one?" In 1965, Ann and her mother began to sell handmade carriers. Ann received a patent for the baby carrier in 1969. By that time, the baby carrier had leg holes and straps that could be made longer or shorter. It could also be worn on the back or front. By 1979, the baby carriers were made in a factory. These baby carriers cost less to make and more than 25,000 were sold every month. When Ann made her first baby carrier, she just wanted to keep her baby close and still have her hands free to do other things. Now all over the world babies ride in baby carriers, close to their parents, safe and happy. ,. Question: People asked Ann where they could buy a carrier because _ . Options: A: Ann looked kind and friendly B: Ann knew where to buy it C: they liked it and wanted to have one D: they couldn't go to Africa

Read the article and select the best answer. Article: What do you think are the most important inventions of the past 2,000 years? The TV? The printing? The telephone? Or the computer? A report shows that these are not the only important inventions. Here are four other important ones. Paper is one of the most important inventions. You can't have printing without paper. In 105 AD, Cai Lun invented paper in China. Long before the printing and Internet, Cai Lun's invention allowed us to write down information, stories and history. One of the simplest inventions to save life is the toilet. Before toilets, waste ran into the rivers from people's houses. Illnesses were common in big cities, and it was often difficult to find clean drinking water. Animal food is another invention. Before the invention, most animals were killed every autumn because there was not enough food for them in the winter. After hay became a kind of common animal food, animals could live through the long winter. Reading glasses is the fourth invention. People start getting far-sighted from the age of 45. Glasses mean that anyone can read, write and do "close work" after that age. Without glasses, the world would be difficult for the people above 45.
