First listen and then answer the question.
听录音,然后回答以下问题。
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 Pinburst 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.
