  The Sewing-machine

  Thomas Saint patented(获专利) his idea for a sewing-machine(缝纫机) in London in 1790,but the idea was not used.Then a German patented his idea for a sewing-machine in 1810, but again nobody was interested in it.In 1892 a poor tailor(裁缝) in Paris,Barthelemy Thimonnier,invented a machine which worked,and made eighty of them.As his prices were cheap,he was given a big order for army uniforms.However,other tailors in Paris were afraid:they thought that they might lose their jobs.The angry tailors broke all eighty machines.Thimonnier lost the order but continued to improve his design.He made a new machine in 1848 and this was destroyed too!

  Then the story continued in the USA.Various(各种各样的) machines were patented there in the 1850s,but one machine is known everywhere now:the Singer.Its inventor was I.M.Singer,a German immigrant(移民),and his company made the new machines.Soon they were bought by clothing companies.Then in 1865 they were sold for use at home,the first complex(复杂的) machines for making things at home.This time the machine was accepted(被接受) by everyone and the design was not improved for many years because it was very good.

  These inventions changed people's jobs and lives. People didn't like the change at first but later the new machines were accepted.
