Script:

Emoji has become integral to digital communication in the past few decades. Invented in the 1990s in Japan, emoji was originally a collection of 176 symbols. These little pictures that people can send to one another are on every smartphone, social network platform and communication application. Its popularity exploded after Apple included emojis in their latest smartphone in 2011. By 2021, there will be more than 3000 emojis representing many different emotions, people, food, jobs… Emoji has become so important to the way we communicate that the Oxford Dictionary chose the tears-of-joy emoji to be Word of the Year in 2015. Some written phrases can usually be understood with a single emoji. However, not everyone supports the increasing usage of emojis. Critics said that this type of communication made people lazy and it destroyed languages.

Read the following passage, and answer the questions that follow

Alexander Graham Bell is widely known as inventor of the first telephone. He was born on March 3rd, 1847 in Edinburgh, Scotland. When he was 23, Bell emigrated to Canada with his parents and the next year moved to the United States to teach deaf-mute children. With his colleague Thomas Watson, Bell worked very hard on the experimentation to invent devices such as the harmonic telegraph (used to send multiple messages over a single wire) and phonautograph (used to draw the shape of the sound waves). The first telephone communication was said to have happened between Bell and Watson in 1876 while Bell was at one end of the line, and Watson worked on the telephone in other room. The first transmitted words were, ‘Mr Watson, come here. I want to see you’.
