HI, Would you please be kind enough to tell me what is the meaning of a busy telephone sits nearby in the following text:
It's 8:45 a.m. and Franklin Delano Roosevelt is still in bed. He wears a sleeping robe and has a tray of food in front of him This is no leisurely breakfast, however. He's surrounded by paperwork, and a busy telephone sits nearby.
Thanks
The telephone rings very frequently. It is within his reach on a table.
