The invention of both labor-saving tools and tools of intelligence is rarely accidental. Instead, it is usually the product of human need; (21) is truly the mother of invention. People usually devise tools to (22) for natural deficiencies. For example, people invented weapons to defend (23) from physically superior (24) . But (25) is only one incentive for inventions. People also invent (26) tools to (27) certain established tasks more efficiently. For instance, people developed the bow and arrow from the (28) spear or javelin in order to shoot (29) and strike with greater strength.

One impetus for invention has always been the (35) for speed and high-quality results--provided they are achieved (36) reasonable costs.

选项
A、enemies
B、neighbors
C、disasters
D、animals
答案
D
解析
本题测试逻辑搭配。enemy意为“敌人,仇敌”;neighbor意为“邻居,邻里”;disaster意为“灾难,灾祸”;animal意为“动物,兽”。本句话讲的是远古时代的人们发明武器的目的,physically superior(在体质上优于的)修饰所填之词,所以应该选D。
