I need some help on the General Information of China for class. I'm doing a worksheet and there's a question I'm kind of stuck on.

Question

The main way personal communication in China takes place by the _____________.

My first guess is technology, because the 2nd part of the question is "Describe the use of radio, television, and telephone system in China." I'm just confused by the way it's worded, especially the part where it says "takes place". Is it a location then? Thanks much 4 help.

The wording "takes place" in that context simply means "happens" -- has nothing to do with a place.

My guess is that, currently, personal communication in China takes place face-to-face. There may be quite a bit of technology of various kinds in the cities, but not in the huge, rural parts of the country.
