Communication in our life

Every day we communicate with scores of(1); we talk about politics, work, life, money and so on. After all, do we know what communication is? An encyclopedia says that “communication is a process whereby (2)is enclosed, channeled and imparted by a sender to a receiver via some medium. The receiver than decodes the message and gives the sender a feedback”. So, this is a scientific explanation of the notion “communication”. But what dies communication mean for common (3)of any age, rank and social position?

Communication is one of the most important necessities of (4) human being. Even millions years ago when primitive men could not speak, they communicate with the help of gestures, sounds and pictures. If we try to imagine our (5)without communication with each other, the picture will be dull and unemotional, like the science fiction where people are replaced by robots.

Besides exchanging the information, we exchange our feelings, emotions, gestures and so on. Communication can reveal different feelings. According to the theme of the communication, communicator, conditions, (6) can leave us happy, satisfied, indifferent, irritated or enraged. Sometimes good communication can replace medicine in the case of depression. Our relatives and close people can understand anything without words just looking at our eyes, and that is communication too.

Now people can communicate even if their dialog is not face to face. Modern gadgets give us such opportunity. For instance, sending a short messageby the mobile phone, you can put different marks or smiles conveying your emotions; using the (7)Skype for chattering you can see your partners face and all gestures he uses.

On the other hand, there is a great detail that cannot substitute communication face to face. When you communicate with a person who can even keep silence, you can (8)this person by his or her gestures, eyes and body language. During our communication we often unconsciously touch each other, and that also gives us a piece of information.

To draw a conclusion, I suppose that all (9)and fashionable gadgets for communication are really useful things when you have no opportunity to meet a person. Nevertheless, if you have one, enjoy every moment of this process because it is a real treasure and “Good communication is as (10)as black coffee and just as hard to sleep after”.
