The insight (洞察力) that people around the world dream of being “like Mike” led directly to Nikes domination (优势) in its market.Celebrity endorsements work to increase a products sales by encouraging consumers to make a positive connection between a person the public trusts and admires, and t
29、he brand up for sale. Companies take this sort of association one step further with the product tiein. Product tieins are a creative way of linking an attractive product with a less attractive one in the hope that some of the excitement surrounding the one will spread to the other.Blockbuster (轰动一时的

34、ing automobile windshield wipers (挡风玻璃雨刷器). In 1902, while riding a trolley bus in New York City, she couldnt help noticing that the driver had to continually stop in order to wipe snow and ice from the windshield. Anderson thought that there had to be a better way.In 1903, she invented a swinging a
35、rm with a rubber blade (刮片) that swung back and forth, removing, rain and snow from the windshield surface. Andersons model was different from todays models, though, because it was handactivated by a lever (控制杆) from inside the car. Similar devices had been attempted in the past, but Andersons was t
36、he first to work and the first to be successfully patented. Interestingly, she could not sell the rights to her invention. A Canadian company told her that drivers would find the movement of the arm too distracting (分散注意力的). So even though Andersons windshield wipers became standard in cars after 19
37、15, her invention did not make her much money. Anderson was not the only female inventor of her time. In fact, women have been responsible for many practical inventions. Josephine Cochran, for example, declared, “If nobody else is going to invent a dishwashing machine, I will.” After receiving a pat
38、ent on December 28, 1886, she presented her working dishwasher at the 1893 Worlds Fair. At first not a huge success, the machine was used only by hotels and large restaurants. Household dishwashers did not become popular until the 1950s.Historically, women have held a minority of patents. In early U
39、S. history, social and legal barriers often discouraged women from patenting inventions. In Anderson and Cochrans time, women lacked the same legal rights as men, which forced many women to patent their inventions under their husbands or fathers names. It is unfortunate that the genius behind each o
40、f these inventions was not always rewarded or recognized, because these women helped to create the efficient world we take for granted today.32Whats a feature of Andersons invention?AIt depended on electricity.BIt had to be controlled by hand.CIt was placed inside the car.DIt couldnt be used in the
41、winter.33What do we know about Anderson and Cochran?ABoth patented their invention under others names.BBoth sold their inventions to Canadian companies.CBoth became very wealthy because of their inventions.DBoth their inventions received a cold welcome at first.34Whats the authors attitude towards i
42、nventors like Anderson and Cochran?ASurprised and hopeful.BCurious but distrustful.CGrateful but sympathetic.DCritical and disappointed.35What would be the best title for the text?AWomen in historyBStandards of inventionsCInventions that break barriersDInventors who created the world第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满
