Anchor 1: From the first telephone invented by Alexander Graham Bell to today’s smartphones and internet, telecommunication has changed the way we communicate. It helps us stay connected to people far away.

Anchor 1: Now, let’s take a moment to think about how telecommunication has changed our lives. We can talk to friends, attend classes online, and even watch videos from anywhere in the world. Isn’t that amazing?
