The phone was a 39 thing by today’s standards — it __40_ almost 1 kilogram and was about 25 centimetres long.Now,__41_ phones fit into the palm（手掌） of your hand and weigh little more than a lemon.
But back then,it was a huge __42_ ,especially when __43 he car mobile phones that had been in __44 since the 1940s.
A __45 one weighed more than 13 kilograms and __46 thousands of dollars.An owner had to drill a hole in the __47 just to install it.
At that time,Cooper was __48 with Joel Engel,the head of research at a rival _49_ communications company.So,he made the first call to hem.
“I told him:Joel,I’m __50_ you from a real cell phone,” said Cooper.“I thought I heard gnashing of teeth（咬牙切齿） at the other end,__51_ he was polite.”
