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’.

__________________________________________________________________

The word "telephone" means hearing the sounds produced at a distance, just as we see distant objects through a "telescope" or we see things happening miles away through "television". The television was invented more thanone hundred years ago by Alexander Gragam Bell, an American. It is now very extensively used everywhere. In Vietnam, most of the people have their own telephones in their homes. It makes us possible to talk to our friends far away without all they way to their homes.

In actually working it appears to be simple. It has a transmitter into which you speak and a receiver at which you hear; and these two are now combined in the same small instrument, one at each end. The two persons who want to speak have each an instrument. There is a connecting write andelectric battery by the side of each, or there is a common connecting station. it is the electric current enables the sound vibrations to be reproduced at the other end, and the person at the end heara the talk of his friend.

Its working is marvelous, though simple. Two persons can now carry on a conversation with each other while both are lounging on their easy chairs. There is thus no need now to leave your house to talk to a friend on any business. It saves time, trouble and expense.
