At this stage, the level of scientific literacy of our citizens have a big gap with that of developed countries, because the urban citizens are still at a relatively low level in knowing and understanding of science in spite of their relatively high level of knowledge. In recent years, in order to improve the level of scientific literacy of our citizens, academia has increased the research of science communication and achieved some research results. However, generally the study on the theory of scientific communication is not enough in-depth, and lacks of practical solutions.For a long time, the traditional popularization of science was regarded equal to the scientific communication, in fact, they're significantly different. Traditional popularization of science was composed of the communicators, audiences, intermediaries and communication effects, so the audiences were placed in a passive position.As a complete system, Chinese scientific communication patterns of urban communities comprise the main body, an intermediary, object and target. The main mode of spread of urban communities is community residents, who are both disseminators of scientific information and-audiences of scientific information. The intermediary is mainly composed of traditional mass Medias such as newspapers, books, radio, television and emerging Internet media, and with the development of times, the Internet media will become more important.Community science communication functions of the system mainly in its system function and social function. The system function is to spread scientific information in the community, enhance public literacy. Social function of science communication in urban communities is the political, economic and social dimensions.Urban community of science communication system operation, mainly from the system's control, the system of information dissemination processes and systems to study three aspects of the goal. Community Science Communication system control is a typical multi-hierarchical control; system information elements of the spread of information presented in the spread of multi process, network flow, which relative to the authority interpretation mode and discontinuous mode of information dissemination process should be more complex, more reliable information dissemination; system target includes the target, targets, objectives and composition of individual target system.
