As Tom wrestled with a tough set of equations, the telephone jangled.

Then the telephone, inside hangar number nine jangled and G-8 was there with the receiver in his hand before the thing stopped ringing.

Hardly had he started to speak, when the telephone jangled.

While they were talking, a telephone jangled somewhere, several rooms away by the sound, and was quickly answered.

Before I even had a chance to take off my coat the telephone jangled.

A telephone in the corridor that led to the place jangled.

Hardly had he sunk down in an easy chair when the telephone jangled.

He hadn't been gone more than ten minutes before the telephone on Jeff's desk jangled.

The telephone jangled, a merciful reminder of the workday ahead.

I spilled pipe ash all over my chest as the telephone jangled me awake.
