उत्तर
The big machine in England went on advancing and became more sophisticated with passing day. in this context, the given headline is described as follow:
Improved Steam-Engine: The wind and water were not the perfect sources of power, because the wind would cease and the rivers might go dry in hot weather. In 1769, James Watt, a maker of mathematical instruments, improved on the existing steam-engines. He made an engine, in which the steam-pressure was controlled by valves. The steam could now be employed to drive the piston backward and forwards. Thus, the standing steam-engine was converted by James Watt into an effective means to turn the wheels. The steam-engine became the throbbing-heart of every industry.
