COMMUNICATION

A
1. Thomas Edison
2. Sir Alexander Fleming

1. Match the
inventors in A with
their inventions in B:

3. Alexander Graham Bell
4. The Wright brothers
5. James Watt
6. Mark Zuckerberg
7. Tim BernersLeeEdison -- the light bulb (bóng đèn điện)
Thomas

B
a. the steam engine
b. Facebook
c. the light bulb
d. penicilline
e. the Internet
f. the telephone
g. the airplane

Sir Alexander Flemming -- penicillin
Alexander Graham Bell -- the telephone
The Wright brothers -- the airplane
James Watt -- the steam engine (động cơ hơi nước)
Mark Zuckerberg -- Facebook
Tim Berners-Lee -- the Internet

2. Which invention is more useful?
Ex: A: The invention of the airplane is very important because it has changed the
way people travel and transport goods around the world.
B: You are right. But I think the invention of penicillin is more useful because it
has saved lots of lives……
C: Personally,
C: …………… I think the light bulb the most important invention. Because
the invention of the light bulb enables us to be able to conduct work at
night. This greatly improves productivity, enhances the quality of our life,
and reduces crime rates.
D: You are right. The light bulb changed the way humans live. Sure, we had
candles, but the light bulb made it possible to continue many activities that
previously were "daylight only" into the night. That's a significant deviation
from "natural circumstance" and the effects may not be completely known
to this day.

3a. Ha had an interesting dream last night in which she met and
interviewed Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone:
Ha: When and where were you born?
Bell: I was born in 1847 in Scotland.
Ha: And did you go to school in Scotland?
Bell: Yes, I went to the Royal High School.
Ha: What subject did you like best?
Bell: I always liked sciences, especially biology
Ha: Did you go to university?
Bell: Yes, I went to Edinburgh University, and then to the University of London.
…………

b. Two days later, Ha told her friend what Alexander bell said. Now
