这些发明改变了世界 你仍不知谁创造了它们

For most people, gadgets like smart phones and wearables are nothing more than the magical little machines that make it easier to do things like Facebook-stalk an ex in that Monday morning meeting. However, they probably don’t know who invented the first smart watch or the person who paved the way for “smart refrigerators” that can tell you when you’re out of milk.
对于大多数人来说，像智能手机和便携式计算机这样的小玩意只是一些神奇的小电器，它们能为人们提供便利，比如让你在周一的会议上用脸书网人肉搜索前任的踪迹。可是，人们大概并不知道是谁发明了第一款电子手表，也不知道谁为能告诉你什么时候没牛奶了的“智能冰箱”发明铺平了路。
Many of the world’s biggest inventions that have made life possible and transformed entire industries came from the minds of overlooked and underrated geniuses. Meet the men and women who’ve shaped our reliance on and expectations for technology, but aren’t as widely known as they should be.
世界上有许多最伟大的发明，它们为我们实现了新的生活方式，革新了整个工业系统，而它们却都是源于一些被众人忽略，怀才不遇的天才头脑。了解一下这些天才吧，是他们促生了我们对科技的依赖和期望，他们本应名声斐然，却鲜为人知。

1.Bertha Benz, Mother of Motoring (1849-1944)
贝尔塔·本茨 汽车之母
Bertha Benz was the trailblazing wife of the German engineer, Karl Benz, credited today with inventing the first modern car. Karl was apparently a genius engineer, but he didn’t have the same business acumen or vision as his wife (he didn’t even think to fit the vehicle with a fuel tank).
贝尔塔·本茨是德国机械师卡尔·本茨的妻子，她是名具有开拓精神的女子，她为第一辆现代汽车的发明做了不小的贡献。她的丈夫卡尔确实是个天才的机械师，但他却不如妻子那样具有商业头脑和远见（他甚至没想到在汽车上装上油箱。）
