Compare the ancient way information was transmitted and the Internet was used to transmit informatio

Ancient ways of information transmission: beacon tower, wolf smoke, manual transmission (horseback transmission), carrier pigeons... It is time-consuming and laborious, consuming manpower, financial and material resources, limited information transmission, slow transmission speed and long transmission cycle. It is greatly affected by human factors and natural factors.

Modern ways of information transmission: Internet, network delivery methods, e-mail, direct send-send. Cables or fiber optic cables, as well as satellite transmission, wireless transmission and other means. The information transmission speed is fast, the amount of information transmission is large, and the external interference factors are small. No time lag...

Beacon "We are victorious! "" way: long-distance running "letter in a bottle" way:

3. What other ways do you know about ancient people who transmitted information? Letters (carrier pigeons, fast horses, post stations), bells and drums, fireworks, flags, wolf smoke, etc.

Fourth, into the modern information age.

1. Through everyone's efforts, we know so much information about the transmission of information by ancient people, and there are some ways that we have not found, and I hope you will pay attention to this information in the future. 2. Next, let's approach the modern information age and read pages 119 to 123.2 "The Internet Connects the World" and "The Amazing Computer Magician" "Call for Help on the Internet". Thinking while reading:

What are the modern ways of delivering information? 3. Summary: (1) letters, newspapers and periodicals (2) radio, television (3) text messages, ** (4) Internet.

There is a postal system that relies on trains, ships, planes, and other means of transportation, and there are things that you have seen or heard with your own eyes. 4. Look at the picture to distinguish the ancient and modern information transmission methods.

Personal Opinion A brief list of the following points

Word of mouth, manual transport of people.

It is the so-called human flesh system and communication today

Pros, everything is rendered and more vivid (epic, documentary, story); Letters are relatively well preserved (postage).

Shortcomings, fairness is really sexual deficiencies, often adding personal opinions, will cause three people to become tigers, ears and ears have no basis (rumors, rumors); **Expensive, manual transportation errors (postage).

The wild goose passed the book, and the fish passed the ruler animal.

Although it is a good story for the ages, it is full of loopholes

Advantages, romance (mostly written in poetry, not used in real life, so the authenticity needs to be verified, it is difficult to make a conclusion).

Disadvantages、It's a bit unreliable、Really do it.、Hong Yan is an ancient carrier pigeon.、Convenient.、Fish is difficult.。

Knotted rope to remember, speak, draw, and write objects.

See Primitive Societies

Advantages、At that time, it was considered advanced。

The disadvantage is that it is now backward.

Let's talk about shipping in detail

In ancient times, there were generally two kinds of postmen, the official dispatch was for the people's livelihood, and there were also those who were ignorant and were fellow villagers

Zhang Ji has the most wonderful poem "Autumn Thoughts", "The empty is inexhaustible in a hurry, and the pedestrians are about to open the seal." ”

Here, "pedestrian" is the postman, and "again" does not mean to arrive, "Kaifeng" is not a place name, it is the meaning of opening and sealing the seal.

Trusting people to carry letters is a very famous social ...... in ancient timesAnyway, even if it's a habit

The postman lived in a post house, simple

The advantages of such an approach are

Both sides, postmen, earn some extra money, and generally piggyback on the way.

Mailer, because the fellow piggybacking is not expensive, can be accurately delivered to the hands of relatives.

Drawbacks、Compared to today's perfect mailing system、

Speed, efficiency, safety ......

A lot of it wasn't as good as it is now

Society is progressing

1. Yuxin: It is not safe to use to recruit and transfer troops.

2. Flying pigeons are not safe.

The pigeon will be shot down).

3. It is not safe to pass the book on a fast horse.

4. Beacon Smoke is inaccurate.

Beacon: Fast.

Ekicha: It's easy to trouble.

Pros: Eco-friendly. Cons: Slow, too long.

QBSX: Hello.

Shen Kuo's "Dream Creek Writings" has an article "Post Biography Urgent Foot Delivery", which is recorded below:

There were three classes in the past, which were said to be foot delivery, horse delivery, and urgent foot delivery. Hurry the foot to deliver the most, travel 400 miles a day, only the army is prosperous. In Xining, there are gold plates in a hurry, such as the ancient feathers.

With the wooden brand vermilion lacquer ** word, bright and dazzling, such as flying lightning, all those who look forward to it avoid the road, more than 500 miles a day. If there is a pre-military speed punishment, it will be issued from the imperial front, and the three provinces and the Privy Council will not be with it.

In ancient times, there were three levels of information transmission, which were step delivery and walking transmission. The slowest. Horse pass, horse pass. Faster. Rush to the feet. The messenger does not rest, changes horses at the post station, day and night. It is equivalent to the current "express mail".

In this way, during the war years, it is possible that the history of the letter will be captured by the enemy, and the information will be taken away. Lack of security.

In ancient times, there were letters, wolf smoke, etc., which had the advantage of single-line transmission, with less information loss and higher information authenticity in the process; The disadvantage is that the transmission speed is slow, usually delayed timing, the transmission method is rigid, unlike modern information dissemination, users can participate in it, so that the point, line, and surface all-round transmission, and even receive information while transmitting information to the outside world.

The advantage is that it's more realistic, but it's slow. There will be interruptions.

As early as the Shang Dynasty more than 3,000 years ago, information transmission was recorded. Passing by horse is called a post pass, which is an early organized form of communication. Located in the square of Jiayuguan railway station, the "post envoy" sculpture, it is taken from the Jiayuguan Wei and Jin mural tombs, the post envoy holds a simple paper, the post horse is four-legged in the air, and the speed is fast.

In 1982, the First Congress of the All-China Philatelic Federation was used as a theme pattern for small stamps, which shows that Jiayuguan is one of the birthplaces of China's information culture.

During the Qin and Han dynasties, a complete set of post transmission systems was formed. Especially in the Han Dynasty, the documents transmitted were divided into grades, and the documents of different grades should be transmitted by special personnel and horses in accordance with the prescribed order and time. The sending and receiving of these documents must be registered, and the time should be indicated to clarify the responsibility.

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the post industry developed unprecedentedly. The official postal transportation line of the Tang Dynasty took the capital Chang'an as the center, radiated to the four directions, and went directly to the border area, with a post station roughly 30 miles. According to the records of the Six Classics of the Tang Dynasty, there were 1,639 post stations in the country at its peak, with more than 20,000 people specializing in post services, including 10,000 post soldiers.

The post post is divided into three types: land post, water post and waterway merger, and each post station is equipped with a post house, equipped with a post horse, a post donkey, a post boat and a post field.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were also clear regulations on the itinerary of the post post, and the land post fast horse walked 6 posts a day, that is, 180 miles, and then 300 miles a day, and the fastest required 500 miles a day; Walkers travel 50 miles a day; When sailing against the current, the river travels 40 miles, the river travels 50 miles, and the other 60 miles; When going down the river, it is always 100 to 150 miles. The poet Cen Shen wrote in the poem "The Judge of the Character on the Way to Longshan at the First Stage" that "one post passes through one post, and the post rides like a stream of stars; Pingming sent Xianyang, curtain and Longshantou". Here he compares the stagecoach to a shooting star.

On November 9, the 14th year of Tianbao, An Lushan rebelled in Fanyang. At that time, Tang Xuanzong was in Huaqing Palace, and the two places were separated by three thousand miles, and Tang Xuanzong knew the news within 6 days, and the transmission speed reached 500 miles per day. It can be seen that the organization and speed of post communication in the Tang Dynasty have reached a very high level.

In the Song Dynasty, all official documents and letters were collectively referred to as "delivery", and "express delivery shops" appeared. There is a copper bell tied to the collar of the post horse of the express delivery, and when galloping on the road, the bell is ringed during the day, and the fire is raised at night, and the person who is killed is not responsible. Shop for horses, number of shops for people, rain or shine, day and night.

In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, Yue Fei, the anti-gold general, was forcibly recalled to Lin'an from the front line by Song Gaozong with twelve gold medals.

Era The way information is transmitted.

Appraisal Antiquity.

Word of mouth or with the help of utensils.

Information is delivered at a slow, imprecise rate.

In ancient times, it was a long journey by post office.

The speed of information transmission is slow and the form of information is single.

Modern times A postal system that relies on means of transportation.

The speed of information transmission is relatively fast, the distance is relatively slow, and the cost is high.

Modern telegraph, **.

Fast speed, single text information.

Contemporary Computer Networks.

The amount of information transmitted is large, the information is diversified, the transmission speed is extremely fast, and it is not subject to geographical barriers.

Beacon communication As far back as the Zhou Dynasty, China had a method of transmitting information by beacon fire, and beacon fire, as a primitive means of sound and light communication, served in ancient military warfare. From the border to the national capital and the border defense line, a beacon tower was built at certain distances. When the enemy invaded, they lit the beacon fire one after another to give an alarm, and the princes from all walks of life saw the beacon fire and immediately sent troops to help resist the enemy.

During the Western Zhou Dynasty, in order to prevent the invasion of the enemy, the "Feng Tunnel" was used as a communication signal for border defense. In the ancient history book "Zhou Li", there is such a record: "On the passage from the frontier to the hinterland of various countries, at intervals, a beacon tower was built, one after another, and there were orange trees on the platform, and there were cages with firewood and grass on the head of the orange trees, and when the enemy invaded, the beacon towers set off fireworks one after another to transmit alarms." Every night warning, the defender of the platform lights the firewood and grass in the cage and lifts it high, and transmits information to the leading platform by the light of the fire, which is called "Feng", and the daytime warning ignites the grass accumulated on the platform, and uses smoke to show urgency, which is called "Sui".

In order to make the smoke straight and not bent, so that it can be seen from a distance, the ancients often used wolf dung instead of grass, so it is also called wolf smoke. The Zhou Dynasty stipulated: The princes of the Son of Heaven must immediately lead troops to the rescue and jointly resist the enemy.

It can be seen from this that the implementation of the beacon system means that a huge and perfect military information contact network has appeared as early as Zhou.

Transmission of letters: Ordinary civilians pass letters, mainly relying on passers-by, monks, literati and other travelers, these people carry letters, and they can solve the problem of food and accommodation on the way, and they are also very willing!

The official is mainly a post station.

Transmit military information: The army must have full-time personnel in this regard, in addition to beacons and carrier pigeons.

Didn't you hear that there is a flying pigeon book?

It depends on what it's for.

The accuracy of carrier pigeons to send letters is low, most of them are letters, but they take a long time in months, and there are also 100 li expedited, 200 li expedited, and 300 li expedited by horseback riding、、、 but it costs a lot of money, and generally this kind of "express delivery" is mostly used for officialdom letters.

The ancients had about --

Feathers: A letter with a feather inserted to indicate the urgency of war.

Chicken feather letter: generally used in the folk.

Feather Book: Used to recruit troops.

Pigeon biography: mostly used in the court, officials, and gangs.

Bamboo tube: used by officials and people, similar to the current envelope.

Urgent foot delivery: used for the transmission of urgent military information, commonly known as "gold medal".

There are also military means such as beacon fire and wolf smoke.

Torches can be used.

The ancients used the following methods to convey information:

1] Feathers: Letters with feathers are mostly used in the urgency of war.

2] Chicken feather letter: generally used in the folk.

3] Feather Book: Used to recruit troops.

4] The pigeon biography [the said flying pigeon biography].

5] Fast Horse Biography.

6] Bamboo tube: used by officials and people, similar to the current envelope.

7] Urgent foot delivery: used to transmit urgent military information, commonly known as "passing gold medals".

8] Different dynasties such as Beacon Fire and Wolf Smoke had different ways of transmission.
