Answer question number 11-15 based on the following reading passage!
Alexander Graham Bell was born on March 3, 1847. He was a Scottish. He was Canadian-
American inventor, scientist and engineer who is credited with patenting the first
practical telephone. He also co-founded the American Telephone and Telegraph
Company (AT&T) in 1885.
Bell's father, grandfather, and brother had all been associated with work on elocution and
speech, and both his mother and wife were deaf; profoundly influencing Bell's life's work. His
research on hearing and speech further led him to experiment with hearing devices which
eventually culminated in Bell being awarded the first U.S. patent for the telephone, on March
7, 1876. Bell considered his invention an intrusion on his real work as a scientist and refused to
have a telephone in his study.
Many other inventions marked Bell's later life, including groundbreaking work in optical
telecommunications, hydrofoils, and aeronautics. Bell also had a strong influence on
the National Geographic Society and its magazine while serving as the second president from
January 7, 1898, until 1903.
Beyond his work in engineering, Bell had a deep interest in the emerging science of heredity.
His work in this area has been called "the soundest, and most useful study of human heredity
proposed in nineteenth-century America... Bell's most notable contribution to basic science, as
distinct from invention.”
