7 You've Got Mail! J READING Read about the Morse Code. International Code There are a great many different ways to communicate today. We correspond by email, fax, letter, telephone, and cell phone. Every day, electronics and technology help make communication clearer and faster. Samuel Morse developed the Morse Code in the 1840s. This type of communication uses a system of short electrical signals called "dots" and long electrical signals called "dashes" to communicate. For example, the international call for help is sent with these signals: ·/- ./. You would say it like this: "Dot, dot, dot, dash, STU A Ј B K C L D M V E • W О LL F G - H P R - Y Z dash, dash, dot, dot, dot." Three dots stand for the letter S and three dashes stand for the letter O. When this SOS signal is sent, it means that someone is in trouble and needs help. Before telephones, Morse's system was used for rapid communication in Europe and America. Wooden poles carrying wires were set up so the electrical signals could be sent over the wires from one place to another. One person would tap out the code while a person in another place would listen to the message, write the code down, and translate it into letters and words. This "telegraph" system was widely used during the 1800s. Although it seems slow now, compared to today's technology, Morse Code is still sometimes used when emergencies occur today. This type of communication works best because it gets through interference better and works with very simple radios. Sometimes this is the only and best way to communicate during emergencies. You can learn more about the Morse Code using the Internet. There are even schools that offer courses in its use. وزارة التعليم Ministry of Education 2024-1446 Write T for True or F for False. 1.
