　　In the last few years our communications network has been growing at a very fast pace．The old fixed－line telephone has been replaced by mobile phones．Short Message Service(SMS)．e－mail and instant messaging(IM)．And there are other new ways of communicating related to the Internet, such as blogs．

　　A recent study in Switzerland shows the different roles that communication methods can play．Stefana Broadbent is a scientist at Swisscom, Switzerland’s largest telecoms company．She studied several hundred consumers and their reactions to telecommunications．She found people are very good at choosing the besttechnology for each situation．

　　“IM is used to tell you I miss you; e-mail is to organize our dinner; voice mail is to say, I'm late; and SMS to continue our talk on the way,”says Broadbent, joking a little．

　　Landline phones are an open channel．That means people use them to talk about non-private things．That's because other family members or colleagues have access to the phone．Mobile phones are more for adding last-minute information．SMS is used for close friends to keep in touch．It is very efficient and pri-vate．The messages are often related to personal secrets．People often use e-mail for online communication with bigger social groups．That includes ordinary friends．Or it is used for exchanging pictures, music, and other content among a social network．IM, such as MSN and QQ, is a continuous channel．Users open an instant messaging channel for the day．Then they just keep it open while they do other activities．Managing a blog is like creating your own independent club on the Internet for friends to visit．It is often the centre of a small group of friends who share the same hobbies．

     She was known to millions as the "Queen of Crime" or the " Duchess (女公爵) of death". But surprisingly,
she hated violence and blood, and knew nothing of the weapons most often used in murder."I don't think I dare
look at a really horrible and damaged body." Agatha Christie once said.
     But her pen dared travel where her eyes would not. In a 50-year writing career, Christie's murder stories
made her the world's best-known mystery writer. She is outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare.
     Her works have been turned into films and TV series, and a line of computer games is to be released over
the next six years.
     "My grandmother liked to use new ways to reach people who wanted to enjoy her work," said Christie's
grandson, Mathew Pri- chard."Turning her stories into PC games allows us to introduce classic mysteries to
new audiences.
     Born in 1890 in England, Christie was educated at home and began her writing career while working as a
nurse during World War I. She went on to produce 79 novels and numerous short sto- ries, dying at the age
of 86.
     "With her knowledge of murder, Christie could have been a teacher at police academies," said one fan.

1. By which means can't we learn the works of Christie?

A. Watching TV.
B. Going to the cinema.
C. Reading novels.
D. Playing computer games.

2. Mathew Prichard's words suggest that ____.

A. Christie had been trying to write different stories in different styles
B. Christie was fond of changing styles while writing
C. Christie's works are short of audiences
D. People began to lose interest in Christie's works

3. The fifth paragraph mainly _____ .

A. tells us Christie is a productive writer
B. gives us a brief introduction of Christie
