Which do you think are the most important inventions(發(fā)明) in the world? The TV? The printing? The telephone? Or the computer? A report shows that they are not the only important inventions. Here are three other important inventions.

One of the simplest inventions is the toilet. Before toilets, waste ran into 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 important invention. Before the invention, most animals were killed(殺死) every autumn because there was not enough food for them in winter. After hay (干草) became a kind of common animal food, animals could live through the long winter.

The third great invention is glasses. Glasses help people read, write and do “close work” after the age of 45. Without glasses, the world would be difficult for the people above(超過)45.

In Thailand(泰國)，there are many elephants. They are very useful. They can carry heavy

things so they can help people do a lot of hard work. And they are very clever. They can act and dance. Sometimes they can play with people. Many people go to Thailand to have fun with the elephants. It’s very interesting.

But do you know there is a festival for the elephants in Thailand? It is called(名叫) Elephant Day. It comes at the third weekend of November. On that day, the elephants don’t work or act. They can have a good rest. People give them much good food like fruit and vegetables. People also have some activities for them. On that day, the elephants can wear colourful clothes and eat nice food. They enjoy themselves a lot then.
