In this example IP will mean where you live (your home address). Postal Service means Internet. Modem will mean your country province and city.
Let's say someone is sending a letter to you. The Postal Service needs to know your address and where you live. They write your name, and your address on the card and send it away. The postal service then gets the letter and knows your address (IP). It sends the letter to your address to then be picked up by you (the computer) in order to recieve a connection.
