去年，英格兰的科学家在向地下挖掘了 100米以后，发现了可追溯到1000年前的铜线痕迹。所以他们得出结论:他们的祖先在1000年前就有了电话线网络。 为了胜过英格兰，苏格兰的科学家在后来的几周内向地下挖了200米，苏格兰报纸的头条新闻写道： "苏格兰科学家已经发现了2000年前的光学纤维痕迹，得出的结论是苏格兰人的祖先提前使用了高科技数字电话，比英格兰早了 1000年。” 一周后,爱尔兰新闻界做了如下报道： "在做了 500米深的挖掘之后，爱尔兰科学家绝对是一无所获。于是他们得 出结论： 5000年前，爱尔兰人的祖先就已经使用手机了。’’ Newsflash After digging to a depth of 100m last year, English scientists found traces of copper wiring dating back 1000 years, and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network one thousand years ago. So as not to be outdone, in the weeks that followed, Scottish scientists dug 200m, and headlines in the Scottish newspapers read ： “Scottish scientists have found traces of 2000 year old optical fibres, and have con cluded that their ancestors already had advanced high-tech digital telephones 1000 years earlier than the English. ” One week later, the Irish press reported the following： “After digging as deep as 500m, Irish scientists have found absolutely nothing. They have concluded that 5000 years ago, their ancestors were already using mobile phones. |
