In fact, they were used by soldiers to send messages by burning something to make smoke. When the soldiers from far away places saw the smoke, they knew something important happened. They would do the same. That's one of the ways of communication. In the old days, it was very difficult for people to keep in touch with each other. It took postmen several days to send a letter from one place to another by riding horses. In order to provide a place for the postmen to live in, the government had to build many post houses. Some people trained pigeons (鸽子)or other birds to carry letters, others even used kites to send messages.Telegrams (1781) and fixed telephones (1892) are great inventions. They have changed the way of communication. People can communicate with each other easily. But they can only send words. For pictures, people can use fax(传真)machines (1843) or e-mails (1969). With the spread of Internet, people can send messages at any time, in any place only if there is network and a computer. What's more, smart phones (1973) have made communication much easier. They are like small computers. They can send sound, words and pictures. More than two billion (十亿)people around the world are using smart phones to communicate now.11.
