--- lesson 5 no wrong numbers
--- first listen and then answer the question.
--- what does 'no wrong numbers' mean?
mr.james scott has a garage in silbury and now he has just bought another garage in pinhurst.
pinhurst is only five miles from silbury,
but mr.scott cannot get a telephone for his new garage,
so he has just bought twelve pigeons.
yesterday, a pigeon carried the first message from pinhurst to silbury.
the bird covered the distance in three minutes.
up to now, mr.scott has sent a great many requests for spare parts and other urgent messages from one garage to the other.
in this way, he has begun his own private 'telephone' service.
