Unit 3 Inventors and inventions Section Ⅳ Learning about Language amp；Using Language [原文呈现][读文清障] ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL Alexander Graham Bell① was born in 1847 in Scotland, but when he was young his family moved to Boston, USA. His mother was almost entirely② deaf, so Alexander became interested in helping deaf people communicate and in deaf education. This interest led him to③ invent the microphone④. He found that by pressing his lips against⑤ his mothers forehead⑥， he could make his mother understand what he was saying. He believed that one should always be curious and his most famous saying was： “Leavethebeaten trackoccasionally⑧anddive into⑨thewoods.
