5
So today, I'm going to talk about phones.
6
I was talking about this topic the other day and I got to thinking about how important phones are in our everyday lives.
7
So, let's talk a little bit about this.
8
Let's go briefly through the history of phones.
9
Even though some basic versions of the telephone had been invented earlier, Alexander Graham Bell is usually credited with the invention since he won the first US patent for it.
10
A patent is a government license given to someone who comes up with an idea for an invention.
11
It excludes other people from making or selling this invention for a certain number of years.
12
So, Alexander Graham Bell received a patent for the telephone in 1876.
13
Prior to that, people couldn't talk over long distances.
14
They could only send messages through telegraph or some other means.
15
You can imagine how revolutionary this invention was, when suddenly people could talk and have their voice heard in a different location.
16
It must have seemed like really advanced technology at the time.
17
But obviously, telephones didn't just become common household items overnight.
18
It would be decades before this device became commonplace, and at the turn of the century there were still fewer than a million phones in use.
19
One big milestone in the development of phones was the first transcontinental phone call which was made from New York to San Francisco in 1915.
20
Nowadays this might not seem like a huge feat, but this type of long distance communication was completely unheard of at that time.
21
The telephone was changing the way people thought about communication.
22
Over the next few decades, many more millions of households installed landlines and the telephone became the king of communication.
23
Then, fast forward to 1973, and the world saw the introduction of the first cell phone made by Motorola.
24
But if you're thinking that this cell phone bore any resemblance to today's phones, think again.
25
The first mobile phone was a monster.
26
It definitely couldn't fit in anyone's pocket.
27
Later on in 1989, the first flip phone appeared on the market.
28
A flip phone is a phone that you open like this, the type of phone that I had growing up.
29
In 1992, the first text message was sent between phones.
30
Obviously today, text messages are an essential function of all cell phones and people communicate more through messages than they do through calls.
31
Come to think of it, it seems like people try to avoid calling and instead send text messages whenever possible.
32
Another cell phone feature that we take for granted nowadays is the camera.
33
The first camera phone came out in Japan in 1999 and then later on in the rest of the world.
34
And then finally in 2007, the first iPhone came out, stunning the world with its revolutionary design and touch screen display.
35
Even though there were already smartphones in existence at that time, the iPhone really brought smartphones onto the scene.
36
After that, other companies followed suit and started releasing smartphone after smartphone.
37
Nowadays, it seems like practically everyone who can afford it has a smartphone.
38
This device has become a necessity in many people's lives, and most people spend many hours every week using it.
39
Actually, a lot of people don't even use their computer that much anymore because they can do everything from their phone.
40
If you had told people just a few decades ago about the cell phones of today, they probably wouldn't have believed you.
41
Who knows what type of innovation we might see with phones in the future.
42
I guess we'll have to wait and see.
43
Okay, now I'm going to ask you three questions about today's Write your answers in a comment down below.
44
Number one, in what year was the first transcontinental phone call made?
45
Number two, which company made the world's first cell phone?
46
And number three, what important cell phone feature was first added in 1992?

이 레슨에 대해

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
