Read the passage and give a short answer for each question below.
The nineteenth-century inventor Margaret Knight was born in the USA in 1838. As a young girl, she was made to work in a cotton factory by her parents. While she was working there, there was an accident and somebody was almost killed by a machine. Margaret was only 12 at the time, but she invented a way to fix the machine so that if there was the same fault again, straight away the machine would shut down completely.
She had more than eighty inventions, from the machine for cutting shoes to improvements to the steam engine. But her most important invention - the machine that produced paper bags with flat bottoms - never made much money. In fact, the idea for the original invention was stolen by the person who made the model for the machine. She had to go through a long legal battle to be finally recognized as the owner of the idea.
