About the Telephone
Remember, not so
long ago, when the telephone used to be a simple receiver connected by a wire
to the wall? And all you used your phone for was to make a phone call? Today,
new technology has changed the telephone and what people use it for.
Computer-based
technology has given us instant connections and clearer conversations over the
telephone. Nowadays, people use telephones to do their banking, to rent videos,
and buy things. People use their telephones to connect their home computers to
computerized information centres. People also send letters and documents
through phone lines by fax. And new systems may be available shortly for
sending video pictures over the telephone.
But you don't need
to be at home or at the office to use the telephone anymore. Mobile phones
(also known as cellular phones) have no wires. You can carry one in your pocket
or keep one in your car. A call from a mobile phone travels along radio waves
to stations located in different places. From there, the radio signal is
connected to the regular phone system. With a mobile phone, anyone can drive,
phone and talk at the same time. This means less wasted time: you don't have to
look for a phone booth or use coins to make a call. So remember, next
time you are at the beach or riding your bicycle, there might be a call for
you.
