Ⅲ.语法填空
14.invention根据下文谓语动词made可知，此处应用名词作主语,故填invention。
15. were 根据空前面的名词holidaymakers可知用be的复数形式，根据前文的the 19th century可知应用过去时，故填were。
16.However 前后句表示转折关系，故填However。
17.to have allow sb to do sth允许某人做某事。
18. which空后是定语从句，从句中缺少主语，且是非限制性定语从句，故用which引导。
19.of take advantage of利用.... 。
20.rising incomes与rise是主动关系，应用现在分词形式作定语。
21. were built hotels是build动作的承受者，语境是发生在过去的事情，故填were built。
22. sitting enjoy后跟".-ing形式作宾语。
23. the seaside是中心词，English修饰seaside，此处表示特指，故填the。
