Great inventions
Class 5A is having a discussion. They are talking about inventions.
“What is the great invention?” asks Mr. Perry.
“The wheel is the greatest invention,” says Eleanor.
“Why?” asks Mr. Perry.
“Because it helps people move from place to place. Wheels are in bicycles, cars and carts. We can’t live without wheels!”
“The Internet is the greatest invention!” says Stanley.
“Why?” asks Mr. Perry.
“Because it helps people communicate. We can communicate with people all around the world. We can buy things and find information easily. We can’t live without the Internet!”
“Those are two important inventions,” says Mr. Perry. “The wheel is very old and the Internet is new.”
Then Mr. Perry asks the class, “Which invention is greater-the wheel or the Internet?”
