It isnt necessarily so.I read only the other day that Richard Ⅱ invented the handkerchief.Almost everything else was invented either by Leonardo da Vincior by Benjamin Franklinor else by Joseph Stalin.

　　Its quite possible that Leonardo or Benjamin Franklin or Stalin also invented the supermarket trolley.Certainly it has been invented more than once.Hardly was Herr Edelweissin his grave,than news came of the death of Sylvan N.Goodman at the age of 86.Sylvan also invented the supermarket trolley or,as the Los Angeles Times report calls it,the shopping cart.

　　Be that as it may,Herr Edelweiss or Sylvan Goodman,or both,did a grand job and made supermarket shopping far less hellish than it would otherwise be.The next step will be to get the trolleys out of the shops and into the streets.You could put an engine in the front and call it a car.Or give it big wheels and a canopy and call it a pram.The possibilities are endless.

　　1.It can be inferred from the passage that Herr Edelweiss.

　　A.was remembered by the people all over world

　　B.made a lot of money from his invention

　　C.was not very famous

　　D.was a business partner of Sylvan Goodman

　　2.The author writes this article in order to illustrate that.

　　A.the names of the people who invented the most useful things are usually forgotten
