Watson introduced the telephone in 1876. Bell demonstrated his invention at a lot of
exhibitions. He died in 1922.

My best friend, Na learned English at school and university many years ago. She is now
studying English again in London because she’s forgotten a lot of it. Na really needs
English for her job. She works for an international bank in Hanoi. Her speaking and reading
are excellent. She just wants to improve her writing skill so that she can write normal letter
in English. In Na’s opinion the aspect of learning English she finds most difficult is
listening. It’s her biggest problem. People speak very quickly and she can’t understand them.
Although she has difficulty in studying this language, she likes it a lot. She said it was an
interesting language and she could talk to people from all over the world… and she could
understand the words of her favorite song, too.
4. Na finds English very interesting because she has no difficulty in studying it.
