  托福阅读句子简化题:Early Cinema

  【Paragraph 2】These Kinetoscope arcades were modeled on phonograph parlors, which had proven successful for Edison several years earlier. In the phonograph parlors, customers listened to recordings through individual ear tubes, moving from one machine to the next to hear different recorded speeches or pieces of music. The Kinetoscope parlors functioned in a similar way. Edison was more interested in the sale of Kinetoscopes (for roughly $1,000 apiece) to  these parlors than in the films that would be run in them (which cost approximately $10 to $15 each). He refused to develop projection technology, reasoning that if he made and sold projectors, then exhibitors would purchase only one machine-a projector-from him instead of several. (Early Cinema)

  ○Edison refused to work on projection technology because he did not think exhibitors would replace their projectors with newer machines.

  ○Edison did not want to develop projection technology because it limited the number of machines he could sell.

  ○Edison would not develop projection technology unless exhibitors agreed to purchase more than one projector from him.
