We all know that America was _____by Columbus while the electric lamp was ________ by Edison.

A. invented;discovered B. discovered;invented

C. found;invented D. found;discovered

B 【解析】 句意:我們都知道美洲大陸是哥倫布發(fā)現(xiàn)的,而電燈是愛迪生發(fā)明的。discover 是發(fā)現(xiàn)本來就存在的事物;invent是發(fā)明創(chuàng)造出一個(gè)原本沒有的新事物。find的基本意思是“發(fā)現(xiàn),找到”,是指找到了所尋找的東西,知道了其下落,強(qiáng)調(diào)尋找的結(jié)果。結(jié)合句意可知,美洲大陸本來是存在的,而電燈是不存在的。故選B。
