I wonder if you could tell me now about the development

29、or history of postal transport.the way letters are carried?M: Definitely. Ill be glad to. To start with, you should remember that there were develop ments in two directions: in the way that letters were carried and delivered inside Britain and in methods that were used in carry fig letters abroad to

30、 other countries.W: Perhaps you could begin by describing the methods used inside Britain?M: Right. From the earliest times messages were carried on foot by messengers for kings and other important people. Then in the 13th century there was the first big development-horses were used to carry letters

31、 for the king. It wasnt until much later that ordinary people, the public, also used horses to carry their letters. While this was happening inside the country, sailing ships were being used in the 17th century to carry letters from Britain to European countries. The next development in carrying let

32、ters abroad wasnt until 1819 when steam ships were used instead of sailing ships.W: You mentioned that horses were used in Britain. I remember reading somewhere that coaches and horses were used as well.M: Yes, that was the next bit of progress. That started in 1784. Four horses were used to pull th

33、e coach. But then, in 1830, there was something faster still-railways. It was in that year that steam trains were used for the first time to carry the Royal Mail. Later, in the country districts, bicycles were used to carry the mail; the first ones were used in 1880.W: So far, everything youve said

34、took place before 1900. What was the most important development in the 20th century?M: Thats easy ! In Britain, it was the use of motor cars. Cars were first used to carry letters in London in 1902. But in carrying letters abroad, the most important development was the use of aeroplanes. The worlds

35、first air mail service started from London in 1911.W: Thanks a lot.

36、me the invention of the telegraph.The telegraphist could send messages from lands hundreds of miles away more quickly than a horseman could deliver a letter from the next village. Of course, mistakes were made and some of them were very funny. Sending a telegram to London from the other end of the w

37、orld was at first very costly. So telegraphists used as few words as possible. Sometimes words were misspeh and the telegrams were difficult to understand. Here is a famous example. When the very first railway line was started in Queensland, Australia, the governor himself dug the first piece of ear

38、th. This was an important event. So a telegram was sent to London. It read, “Governor Queensland turns (digs) first sod ( piece of earth).“ But when the telegram arrived, it read,“ Governor Queensland twins first son. “The newspapers then printed the exciting news that the Governors wife had had twi

39、ns, the first one being a boy!

She was born in a typical New England village in Massachusetts on December 10, 1830. She was the second child of the family. She had lived in the same house fo

41、r fifty-six years when she died. During her life time she never left her native land. She left her home state only once and she left her village very few times. After 1872 she rarely left her house and yard. In the later years of her life she retreated to a smaller and smaller circle of family and f

42、riends. In those later years she dressed in white, avoided strangers, and communicated chiefly through notes and poems even with intimates. The doctor who attended her illness was allowed to“ examine“ her in another room, seeing her walk by an opened door. People in her home village thought of her a

43、s a “strange“ figure. When she died on May 15, 1886, she was unknown to the rest of world. Only seven of her poems had appeared in print.But to think of Emily Dickinson only as a strange figure is a serious mistake. She lived simply and deliberately. She faced the essential facts of life. According

44、to Henry James, a famous American novelist, she was one of those on Whom nothing was lost. Only by thus living could Dickinson manage both to fulfill her obligations as a daughter, a sister, and a housekeeper and to write on the average one poem a day.She read only a few books but knew them deeply.
