Leonardo da Vinci was the first person to propose a contact lens system. In the sixteenth-century he described an optical method

for correcting poor vision. Da Vinci’s idea was to place the eye against a short, water-filled tube sealed at the end with a flat lens. In this process, the water came in contact with the eyeball and refracted light rays much the way a curved lens does. -paraphrased from Charles Panati’s History of Contact Lenses—
Which sentence would MOST logically conclude this paragraph?
A) Many people wear contacts, thanks to Leonardo da Vinci.
B) Glass remained the standard material of hard lenses until 1936.
C) The first practical contact lenses were developed in 1877 by a Swiss physician, Dr. A. E. Fick.
D) Da Vinci’s use of water as the best surface to touch the eye is mirrored today in the high water content of soft contact lenses.

Rus_ich [418]

Ambrose Gwinnett Bierce was born on June 24 in 1842. He was an American short story writer, journalist, poet, and Civil War veteran.

One of Bierce's book, The Devil's Dictionary was named as one of "The 100 Greatest Masterpieces of American Literature" by the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration. His story "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" has been called as "one of the most famous and frequently reproduced stories in American literature"

"An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" written in 1890 and originally published by The San Francisco Examiner on July 13, 1890, and was first poised in Bierce's book Tales of Soldiers and Civilians in 1891. The story is set during the American Civil War, and it is known for its irregular time sequence and twisted ending.

The sentence from "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge"  that refers to the reality of Farquhar’s situation in the dream sequence he envisions is:

"His neck ached horribly; his brain was on fire, his heart, which had been fluttering faintly, gave a great leap, trying to force itself out at his mouth."
