Listening about "inventions"
Presenter: Good afternoon, and welcome to another edition of Science Today. Today’s program we are going to hear about women inventors. When we think of famous inventors, we usually think of men, such as Alexander Graham Bell, Guglielmo Marconi, Thomas Edison. But as historian Sally Brown will tell us, many of the things that make our lives easier today were invented by women.
Sally: that’s absolutely right. Let’s take the dishwasher, for example. This was invented by a woman named Josephine Cochrane in 1886. She was a rich American woman who gave a lot of dinner parties. But she was annoyed that her servants used to break plates and glasses when they were washing them after the party. So, Josephine decided to try to invent a machine that could wash a lot of plates and glasses safely. Today the dishwasher is used by millions of people all over the world.
The car was invented by a man, but it was a woman, Mary Anderson, who in 1903 solved one of the biggest problems of driving. Until her invention , It was impossible for drivers to see where they were going when it was raining or snowing. The name of her invention? Windshield wipers.
A fantastic invention that definitely improved the lives of millions of people was disposable diapers. They were invented by a woman named Marion Donovan in 1950. Anybody who has a small baby will know what big difference disposable diapers make in our lives. Today more than 55 million disposable diapers are used every day in world.
A few years later in 1956, Bette Nesmith Graham was working as a secretary. She used to get frustrated and angry when she made typing mistakes. In those days if you made a mistake, you had to get a new sheet of paper and start again from the beginning. She had a brilliant idea, which was to use a white liquid to paint over mistakes. Her invention is called white-out today. Ms. Graham was a divorced mother, and her invention made her a very rich woman.
And finally…police officers, soldiers, and politicians all over the world are protected by something that was invented by a woman. In 1966 Stephanie Kwolek invented kevlar, a special material that was very light but extremely strong, much stronger that metal. And this material is used to make the bulletproof vest. Her invention has probably saved thousands of lives.
Presenter: thanks very much, Sally. So… if you thought that everything was invented by man, think again.
