I am not able to communicate using the laptop microphone

Here is my code

import smtplib # Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
import pyaudio
import speech_recognition as sr  # Speech Recognition
listener = sr.Recognizer()

with sr.Microphone() as source:
        print('listening.......')
        voice = listener.listen(source)
        info = listener.recognize_google(voice)
        print(info)

Here is the error

Error:

  File "h:\CODE\Py_EmailBot\Email_Bot.py", line 11, in <module>
    with sr.Microphone() as source:
