Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
The light bulb changed human existence by illuminating the night and making human
activity possible in darkness. The electric light, one of the every day convenience that
most affects our lives, was invented in 1879 by both Thomas Eva Edison in the United
States, and Sir Joseph Wilson Swan in England at the same time.
However, the story of the electric light actually goes back to 1811, when Sir Humphrey
Davy discovered that an electrical arc passed between two poles produced light. In 1841,
experimental lights were installed as public lighting along the Place de la Concorde in
Paris. Other experiments were undertaken in Europe and America, but the arc light
eventually proved impractical because it burned out too quickly. Inventors continued to
work on the problem of developing a reliable electric light that would be practical for both

home and public use instead of gas light.
The solution lay not in electrical arc in open space, but in electricity passed through a
filament. The breakthrough theory became known as the Joule effect after James Prescott
Joule. He theorized that electrical current, if passed through a resistant conductor, would
glow white-hot with heat energy and thus produce light.
Edison decided to try a carbonized cotton thread filament. When voltage was applied to
the completed bulb, it gave off a soft orange glow. Just about fifteen hours later, the
filament finally burned out. Further experimentation produced filaments that could burn
longer and longer with each test. By the end of 1880, he had produced a 10-watt bulb that
could last for 1500 hours, and had begun to market his new invention.

A. to highlight the years of development preceding its invention
B. to state when the electric light was first invented
