Who was the first to think of this idea?In the early nineteenth century, people did not use stamps. They had to pay postage (邮资) when they received letters. They were unhappy about this, especially when they paid for a letter which they did not wish to receive at all. The postage was high at that time, because the post offices had to send many people to collect (征收)the postage. Rowland Hill, a schoolmaster in England, was the first to put forward a proposal (提议) to use stamps in the 50s of the nineteenth century. He thought it would be much easier for people to use stamps to cover postage. They could go to the nearby post office to buy stamps and put them on envelopes before they sent the letters. The post office could simply put seals (印章) on the stamps so that people could not use the stamps again. In this way, the post office did not need to send postmen to collect postage. It only needed to send fewer postmen to deliver letters. That was a good idea and the government(政府)finally agreed to it . 6. It was not until_ that people began to use stamps. A. the early 19th century B. the middle 19th centuryC. the late 19th century D. the beginning of the 19th century7. Before stamps were used, postage_ .

(D)People in the United States honor their parents with two special days: Mothers day ,on the second Sunday in May, and Fathers day, on the third Sunday in June.

On these two days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues (烧烤 ) for Father s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings of memories. Another tradition is to give card and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores.
