Many schoolchildren learn that the Scotsman Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in
1876. But the real inventor was Antonio Meucci, a poor Italian-American scientist. He shared a
workshop with Bell in the 1860s, and made a talking telegraph for his wife who was ill in bed so that
she could call him when she wanted something. But Meucci never took his idea to the US Patent Office
because he was too poor to pay the $250 that he needed while Bell applied for a patent for his "own"
invention of the telephone.
On February 14th 1876, Alexander Graham Bell took the invention to the Patent Office. Just two hours
later, another inventor, Elisha Gray arrived with the same idea – too late! Bell was granted ownership
of the patent. At the time, nobody believed that the telephone was an important invention. Bell’s father-
in-law, also a scientist, described the invention as "a beautiful toy".
In 2001, the United States Congress took the extraordinary decision of doing justice to Meucci, passing
a resolution that officially recognized Meucci as the real inventor of the telephone.
Decide whether the following statements are True (T) or False (F).
17 …….. Antonio Meucci was a rich inventor.
18……... Bell and Meucci shared the working place during the 1860s.
19…….. Meucci’s wife used the talking telegraph to call him from her office.
20…….. Bell was the one who took the invention of the talking telegraph to the US Patent Office.
