This week’s recommendation for German reading practice is a text about Philipp Reis, the man who may have been the true inventor of the telephone. The text was originally part of the reading section in a TELC B1 exam a few years ago.
For those unfamiliar, the TELC (The European Language Certificates) exam is an internationally recognized German language proficiency test, widely accepted by employers, educational institutions, and immigration authorities. If you're planning to apply for German permanent residency or citizenship, passing an appropriate level TELC exam is one of the key requirements.
So, dive into the text and put your reading skills to the test! Are you ready to take on the B1 TELC?
