His mother was almost entirely deaf, so Alexander became interested in helping deaf people communicate and in deaf education. This interest led him to invent the microphone. He found that by pressing his lips against his mothers forehead, he could make his mother understand what he was saying. He believed that one should always be curious and his most famous saying was: Leave the beaten track occasionally and dive into the woods. Every time you do you will be certain to find something that you have never seen before. Follow it up, explore all around it, and before you know it, you will have something worth thinking about to occupy your mind. All really big discoveries are the result of thought.follow sth. up 跟进，追查(进一步追踪)；在后采取进一步行动 坚持到底e. g. The police take peoples statements and then follow them up. After Mary sent a letter to apply for a job, she followed it up by going to talk to the personnel manager. This experiment was quickly followed up by others using different forms of the drug. The salesmen usually follow up a letter with a visit.、 When she had decided upon a plan she would follow it up. Follow it up. 坚持下去/再接再厉。T It was this exploring around problems and his dynamic spirit that led to his most famous invention the telephone in 1876. Bell never set out to invent the telephone and what he was trying to design was a multiple telegraph. This original telegraph sent a message over distances using Morse code (a series of dots tapped out along a wire in a particular order). But only one message could go at a time. Bell wanted to improve it so that it could send several messages at the same time. He designed a machine that would separate different sound waves and allow different conversations to be held at the same time. But he found the problem difficult to solve. One day as he was experimenting with one end of a straw joined to a deaf mans ear drum and the other to a piece of smoked glass, Bell noticed that when he spoke into the ear, the straw drew sound waves on the glass. Suddenly he had a flash of inspiration. If sound waves could be reproduced in a moving electrical current, they could be sent along a wire. In searching to improve the telegraph, Bell had invented the first telephone!dynamic adj. 生机勃勃的，有创新思想的，有闯劲的；动态/发展变化的 (引起改变或进步的)动力，活力e. g. He seemed a dynamic and energetic leader. 他似乎是一个富有干劲、精力充沛的领导。 Markets are dynamic and a company must learn to adapt. Asia continues to be the most dynamic economic region in the world. 亚洲仍然是世界上经济最活跃的地区。 The dynamic of the market demands constant change and adjustment. 市场要有活力，需要不断地改变和调整。energetic 精力充沛而活跃的dynamic 精力充沛、有创新思想且志在必得的C It was this exploring around problems and his dynamic spirit that led to his most famous invention the telephone in 1876.
