Q 2. Darius’s wood drill used in connection with another …………………
Answer: 
invention
Part of the passage:
 
Commercial pressure for large type was answered with the 
in-

of a system for wood type production. In 1827, Darius Wells invented a special 
wood drill – the lateral router – capable of cutting letters on wood blocks. The router was 
used in combination with William Leavenworth’s pantograph (1834) to create decorative 
wooden letters of all shapes and sizes.
Explanation: 
Both Darius’s wood drill and William Leavenworth’s pantograph are in-
ventions. The word ‘another’ means we need a general noun that would describe both

another wood drill.
