A land free from destruction（毁灭，破坏）, plus wealth, natural resources, and labor supply ——  all these were important  1       in helping England to become the center for the Industrial Revolution.  2        they were not enough.

He may try to solve a problem by  9        the theories  10        science or by experimenting through trial and error. Regardless of his method, he is working to obtain a   11       result: the construction of a harvesting machine, the burning of a light bulb（灯泡）, or one of  12       other objectives. Most of the people who  13        the machines of the Industrial Revolution were inventors, not trained scientists. A few were both scientists and inventors.
