But still，no invitation came.

　　They didn’t lose heart.They continued learning and inventing every day，trying to come up with more and better ideas.Fresh young talent joined their group，as more inventors dreamed of getting to the island.

　　One day many years later，Luca，already very old，was speaking with a brilliant young man named Roberts，who had written to him，asking him to join the group.Luca started telling the man of the wonderful Island of Inventions，and of how he was sure that some day they would receive an invitation.Surprised，the young inventor interrupted：

　　“You mean this place isn’t the Island of Inventions？Isn’t the letter you sent me the real invitation？”

　　It was only then that Luca realised that his dream had become true in his very own house.No island could exist which would be better than where he was now.No place of invention would be better than what he and his friends had created.Luca felt happy to know that he had always been on the island，and that his life of invention and study had been a truly happy one.

　　6．Luca’s picture of the Island of Inventions was mainly based on ________.

　　A．scientific research

　　B．his imagination

　　C．reports of others

　　D．history books

　　7．Why did Luca and his colleagues probably never receive an invitation to the island?
