Câu 6:
communication device because only one person can talk at a time. A cell phone is a full- duplex device
because it uses both frequencies at the same time. A walkie-talkie has only one channel. A cell phone has
more than a thousand channels. A walkie- talkie can transmit and receive signals across a distance of about
a mile. A cell phone can transmit and receive signals over hundreds of miles. In 1973, an electronic
company called Motorola hired Martin Cooper to work on wireless communication. Motorola and Bell
Laboratories ( now AT& T) were in a race to invent the first portable communication device. Martin
Cooper won the race and became the inventor of the cell phone. On April 3, 1973, Cooper made the first
cell phone call to his opponent at AT& T while walking down the streets of New York city. People on the
sidewalks gazed at cooper in amazement. Cooper's phone was called A Motorola Dyna- Tac. It weighed a
whopping 2.5 pounds ( as compared to today's cell phones that weigh as little as 3 or 4 ounces)
After the invention of his cell phone, Cooper began thinking of ways to make the cell phone available
to the general public. After a decade, Motorola introduced the first cell phone for commercial use. The
early cell phone and its service were both expensive. The cell phone itself cost about $ 3, 500. In 1977, AT
& T constructed a cell phone system and tried it out in Chicago with over 2, 000 customers. In 1981, a
second cellular phone system was started in the Washington, D.C and Baltimore area. It took nearly 37
years for cell phones to become available for general public use. Today, there are more than sixty million
cell phone customers with cell phones producing over thirty billion dollars per years.

men in anti- slavery activities. Probably more than any other movement, abolitionism offered women a
previously denied entry into politics. They became involved primarily in order to better their living
conditions and the conditions of others.
When the Civil war ended in 1865, the 14th, and 15th, Amendments to the Constitution adopted in

had yielded to demands by feminists, but eastern states resisted more stubbornly than ever before. A
