雙子電話亭

繼偉大發明家格雷姆•貝爾1876年發明電話之後，美國的另一位發明家威廉•格雷，又在1889年發明了世界上第一部投幣公用電話，並因此獲得專利。其後，格雷便把裝有投幣電話的小小電話亭，擴展到車站、碼頭、銀行和旅店，逐漸遍佈城市的大街小巷。

說起格雷的這項發明，還有一段小插曲呢。一年前，格雷的妻子患急病，他飛奔到附近一家工廠，要借用一下那裏的電話，沒想到竟遭遇無情的拒絕。失望、憤懣之餘，他萌發了發明公用電話的想法。經過一年多的反覆研究、試驗，終於如願以償。


For this invention there is an episode. One year ago Greg’s wife was ill so he run to a factory nearby to borrow the telephone but be refused. With disappointed and angry he had the idea to invent the public telephone. After more than one year time in research and experiment he was successful.

100多年過去了，現在的電話亭已經是五花八門，形態各異，構成了多彩城市的一道獨特風景線，甚至在某種場合被當成了藝術品。例如在英國，電話亭一律採用木質材料，並被刷成豔麗的紅色。巴西的動物保護組織，爲了讓人們瞭解當地的物種，在馬託格羅索州州府街頭，建起了許多動物(如鸚鵡)行態的電話亭。在哥倫比亞麥德林市，電話公司的工作人員揹着1臺公用無線電話機，走街串巷，爲市民服務……

電話，縮短了地球上人與人之間的距離，給予人們無限的溫馨與慰藉。電話亭雖小，卻是世界的一個縮影。然而，隨着因特網的出現和手機的迅速普及，電話亭，這一城市最基本的公共服務設施，現在開始漸漸淡出人們的視線，在一些國家存在的日子已經屈指可數了。例如，歐盟最近正在修訂有關網絡和電子通信服務的規定，爲的是加快取消公用電話亭的步伐。究其原因，主要是手機大量普及、昂貴的維護費用以及經常遭受人爲破壞等因素，使公用電話的使用率逐漸下降，並且已成爲傳統運營商的沉重負擔。他們認爲在這種情況下，繼續保留公用電話，不啻是一種倒退。
