Hurry asap hurry you
read the excerpt from "the telephone: a truer tale.”
the story of the telephone’s invention in 1876 is one of hard work, determination, and triumph. many accounts make it sound like a fairy tale. after all, it has a terrific happy ending in which the hero, alexander graham bell, uses his astonishing new device to transmit the words "mr. watson, come here. i want to see you.” however, the true story of how the telephone came to be is not quite as happy as most imagine. in fact, it is not a tale of triumph at all, but one of tragedy. what’s more, the first words ever spoken over a wire could not possibly have been uttered by alexander graham bell, because he was only two years old at the time.
based on the excerpt, which statement best describes the author’s attitude toward alexander graham bell?
a. the author greatly dislikes bell for taking credit for the invention of the telephone.
b. the author feels pity for bell because he is not the real inventor of the telephone.
c. the author celebrates bell even though he gives him only partial credit for the telephone.
d. the author feels it is important to show that bell was not the true inventor of the telephone.
