经典励志英语故事精选 Alexander Graham Bell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1847. He was the son of a man who was consumed with the workings of the human voice, how it is produced and used, and especially, in teaching the deaf how to use it. Perhaps this obsession of the elder Bell was one of the reasons he married whom he did. For the woman who would give birth to the inventor of the telephone... was deaf! 亚历山大·格雷尼姆·贝尔于1847年生于苏格兰的爱丁堡市。他的父亲全神贯注于研究人的声音的发生和作用的全过程，特别是教耳聋的人如何运用声音。也许，老贝尔的这一执着爱好是促使他日后同成为自己妻子的人结婚的原因之一。因为后来生下电话的发明者的那位妇女......是个聋人!
