B Percy Shaw had worked all day fixing roads and he was tired.He was driving home when it got dark.Suddenly Percy saw two bright lights ahead of him.He stopped his car and saw a cat.He found the two bright lights were the cat's eyes.They were reflected (反射) off by his headlights.Looking to his right，he saw that he was on the edge (边缘) of a hill.If he hadn't stopped to look at the cat's eyes，he would have gone down the hill. “__▲__” he said to the cat. As he thought about how the cat's eyes had saved him，he wondered if he could create a similar device (装置) that could be fixed to the road.It would reflect light from a car's headlights and show where the road was.It was a simple idea，but it took him a long time to get it to work well. Finally the device was created.It was made up of four glass balls that were set on an iron base.The balls were covered by a rubber cushion (橡胶软垫).When a car drove over the device，the rubber cushion pushed the glass balls down so they wouldn't be broken. Though the device was good，there was a problem．The glass balls would often get dirty and no longer reflect light.Then Percy made a device to clean them.Later he named his device “Cat's eye”． Percy Shaw's Cat's eye is regarded as one of the most important inventions in road safety.Today these devices are still used in many parts of the world.They've helped lots of drivers. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 (A)26.Percy Shaw saw a cat ________.
