　　A lot of inventions are useful to people's life. In 1884, George Eastman invented a kind of film（胶卷）that fit into a small camera（照相机）. Because the new film was easy to use, many people began to buy cameras. When they had used up their film, people returned their cameras to the factory. There, the film was developed, and pictures were printed. Then more film was put into the cameras, which were sent back to the owners, along with their pictures.

His wife often asked him to take her with him, but he always  3  .” I’ll travel for my work, not for   4 ,” he told her, “You won’t enjoy yourself, and I won’t have   5   to look after you.
