How has speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has beeome smaller. Of
course, this does not mean that the world is physically smaller. Two huncired years ago, conrmunicetion botween ths
eontinenl$ took a long time, All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cro$s ihe oeeanE. ln the
setrenteenlh and eighteenth centurie$, it took six weeks for news from [urope ta reach the Americas. This tirne
difierence infh:enced people's aclions For example, one batlle in lhe war of i81? hetween lhe fn6ltsh and the United
States amrtes could have been avoirJed if lhe warring sr{ee had known that e peece asrsement had already been
signed. Peace was made in England, bul the news of peace took six weeks to reach Amsrica, During thosa six rceoks,
the large and serious Battle of New orieans was fought and many lives were !os{.

**Xn*l*portanl
part of the history ol the worlo is the history, of cornrflunication. ln prehist*ric Xirnes, pnrple hed
lirnited knowledge of the world. They had little information about gsography, the stutJy cf the il*r'li:. Feople knew very
llttlo b€yond their small graups excepl what was happening near their hornes. Lrter, peap{* wer* organized into villagaa,
and veri:al csrnmunication between small iowns was possible. $til!, the people's knowl*clgr w*$ lirflit*.{, b*e{ture they
h;:rd no out$ide inferrmation. Kingdonrs and $r"nall counlriec then cleveicp*rj, wi{h a king directins tjhe p*(}ple. Sili*$
developed, too, but still communication wa$ limited to the small geographical area si the c**r-ntry. i14r:*h !at*r in hiot*ry,
aflerlhe invention of the priniing press, many rnore people learned to reac, and c$rnmunrcallsn we$ inrprov*d.
104 _
ln this modern age, communication is so fast that it is almost inslant. People's lives have been changod
because ol the immediate spread of news. Sometirnes the speed is so great that it does not a,lo\il people time to think.
For example, leaders o{ countries have onty minutes, or, at most, hours to consider all the parts of a problem. Thoy are
expected to answer immediately. Once they had days and weeks to think before makrng decisions.
105, _
The speed of communication demands a new responsibility from all people of the world. Peopla in dlfferenl
fcllnlrie$ rnust lryI harder 1o undersianC each other. An exampte is thfit people with cJi{ferent r"*ligions must try lo
understand each other's beliefs and values, even if they dci not aceept th*rr Sorn*tirres t ei|- cultures are quite differenl.
What one group considers a normal part of life is strange to another culture ln $crfie ca$ss. a norm*l part o{ ane culture
might be bad or impolite to pecple of another culture, That kind of differen*e is a porsibie b*si* for nr;sur:d*rstandi*g,
P*opie rnust learn not to judge others, but to accept them as they are. As the world grows snraller, people mu$t iesm to

go baek and capture the expenience of it. A good
horne makes this possible - for example, by providlnq the upportunity
for the child to play with a clockwark car or toy railway
lrain up to any age if he still needs to do so. This principle, in fact,
underlies all psychological treatment of children in difilculties with
their development, and is the basic of work in child
