The value of educationCThe first lighthouses (灯塔) in America, which were built in the 1710s, used wood or coal as fuel (燃料). By the mid-1700s, American lighthouses began to use
23、 oil-burning lamps (灯). The lamps were lit and then placed in a high place so they could be seen from great distances. The trouble with using oil lamps was that only a small percentage of the light produced by the lamp could be seen from the sea. Increasing the amount of light meant burning more fue
