ON MARCH 3,1847,ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL was born in edin burgh. He was a scotsman although he later emigrated, first to Canada and then to the USA in the 1870s. In America, he worked with deaf-mutes at Boston University. Soon, Bell started experimenting with ways of transmitting speech over a long distance. This led to the invention the telephone. Bell and his assistant, Thomas Watson, conducted many experiments and finally came up with a device which they first introduced in 1876. Bell said on the telephone: 'Mr. Watson, come here. I want you.' Thí was the first telephone message. Traveling all over America, Bell demonstrated hí invention to the public at countless exhibitions, and by 1877 the first telephone was in commercial use.

I. One of the inventions made in the world of science and technology is the telephone. This instrument has become an important part in our daily life The word "telephone " comes from two Greek words" tele " and " phone". These words mean "far" and "sound". The telephone uses electricity to carry sound over distance. So you see, the two Greek words tell us exactly what the instrument does. Since its invention by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876, the design of the telephone set has changed greatly. However, the way the telephone works is still the same. I.

Read the following passage, and answer the questions.

Alexander Graham Bell is widely known as inventor of the first telephone. He was born on March 3^rd, 1847 in Edinburgh, Scotland. When he was 23, Bell emigrated to Canada with his parents and the next year moved to the United States to teach deaf-mute children. With his colleague Thomas Watson, Bell worked very hard on the experimentation to invent devices such as the harmonic telegraph(used to send multiple messages over a single wire) andphonautograph (used to draw the shape of the sound waves). The first telephone communication was said to have happened between Bell and Watson in 1876 while Bell was at one end of the line, and Watson worked on the telephone in other room. The first transmitted words were, ‘Mr Watson, come here. I want to see you’.
