To understand mobile phone technology, the first thing you need to know is that a mobile phone is really a two-way radio When Meryem calls Said, her voice is changed into a digital radio signal This radio signal is sent by her phone to the nearest base station on her phone company’s network A base station has radio equipment inside and an antenna on top In cities, you can see base stations on the roof of many buildings From the base station, her call is connected to her company’s Mobile Telephone Switching Office (MTSO) All the calls from the base stations in a particular city or area are sent here The MTSO connects her call to a base station near Said The cost of the call is also calculated here Each base station is in the middle of an area called a cell (The ‘cell’ in cell phone comes from here.) If you move into another cell during a call, your signal becomes weaker This change is seen by computers at the MTSO, and your call is passed to the base station in the new cell This happens very quickly and you don’t notice the change It’s these cells that make it possible for us all to have mobiles Each phone company can only use a limited number of frequencies for its calls With cells, people can use the same frequencies in different parts of a city And that means more people can use their phones at the same time Unit 10, Page 112, Exercises 2b and Track 2.53 / Bey_A2plus_U10_112_2.53.mp3 Welcome to Amazing Stories of Everyday Objects at the Science Museum The first ballpoint pen was invented in 1935 by the Hungarian brothers Lazlo and Georg Biro Lazlo was a chemist and Georg was a newspaper editor They had to develop a special type of ink for their invention Today their pens are used to write all around the world The tin can was invented in 1809 by Nicolas Appert, a Paris chef His tin can was awarded first prize in a competition to find a better way to keep food for the French Army The competition was organised by Napoleon Bonaparte The first electric light was made in 1800 by an English scientist But the light bulb we all know today was produced by the American inventor Thomas Alva Edison Curiously, only 15 per cent of the electricity which it consumes is used to create light; the rest disappears as heat It’s called a drawing pin in British English and a thumbtack in American English It’s used for attaching documents or pictures to a board or wall We aren’t sure who invented it but we know when This amazing object was invented in Europe sometime between 1888 and 1903 Clothes pegs are used to hang clothes on a clothes line The original one-piece clothes peg was made of wood It was created in the early 1800s by Jérémie Victor Opdebec The modern two-piece clothes peg was invented in 1853 by David M Smith in the United States Unit 10, Page 112, Exercise Track 2.54 / Bey_A2plus_U10_112_2.54.mp3 ballpoint pen clothes peg drawing pin light bulb tin can This page has been downloaded from www.macmillanbeyond.com © Macmillan Publishers Limited 2014 This sheet may be photocopied and used within the class 26 A2+ CLASS AUDIO SCRIPT UNIT 10 BRAINWAVES Unit 10, Page 112, Exercise PROGRESS CHECK & 10, Page 119, Listen Track 2.55 / Bey_A2plus_U10_112_2.55.mp3 Track 2.59 / Bey_A2plus_U10_119_2.59.mp3 Narrator: Listen and tick the correct picture for each question Narrator: What sports equipment does Aziz want to buy? paper clip bottle caps pencil thermometer Post-it Notes® Unit 10, Page 115, Exercise Track 2.56 / Bey_A2plus_U10_115_2.56.mp3 Jason: Hi I need some stuff I don’t know what it’s called It’s used for fishing Assistant: Do you mean fishing line?
