阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

A

Some kids have creative minds. They could manage to create amazing things with their simple understandings.

Braille

Braille, a system used by blind people for reading, was actually invented by Louis Braille (1809-1852). He was just three when he suffered (遭受) a serious eye injury. Not long after that, he became completely blind. He started tracing his finger over raised letters. At the age of 12, he learned the method of silent communication. And three years later, he finally came up with Braille.

Christmas Lights

Before the invention of Christmas lights, people used candles to decorate a Christmas tree. This often led to terrible accidents of branches catching up the fire. When the electric lights were made, people were scared about electricity sparks (电火花) burning down their houses. Finally, in 1917, 15-year-old Albert Sadacca created an affordable set of Christmas lights. These lights are now a part of every holiday season.

Trampoline (蹦蹦床)

George Nissen was a teenage gymnast. His coach created “bouncing rig” that helped him create power and then perform a somersault (空翻). It was at first made of scrap steel and tire inner tubes. This was later improved by George and called “trampoline”. In 1950, gas stations bought trampolines to use as jump centers for the kids to play on while their parents got their cars refueled (加油).

Toy Truck

Robert Patch was just 5 years old when he used a few shoe boxes and bottle caps to create a vehicle that could be turned into a truck. His father was a patent (专利) lawyer. He patented this design in his son’s name. By
