The Telephone

The telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876. The rotary dial appeared in the 1930s. After World War II, more efficient telephone sets were developed. In 1947, the transistor was invented and, as a result, the technology used in telephones was changed. In the 1980s, the ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) was launched, which gave access to digital telephony.

Redacción: Would you like to be a pop star?

Would you like to be a pop star? Why? Why not?

I am going to write about being a pop star. Two points should be taken into account when we talk about this topic: the advantages and disadvantages of being a pop star.
