Have you ever posted letters to your friends or parents? If so, you must have put stamps on the letters before you sent them. But, how did people receive letters before stamps were invented, and who came up with the idea of using stamps?

In the past, stamps and envelopes were not used. When people wanted to send a letter, they would close the paper with a seal（封印）. The person who got the letter had to pay for it. Because costs at that time were very high, most people refused to accept letters. In fact, the sender would often place secret marks on the outside of the letter. The person who was sent the letter would read the secret message. Then, they would refuse to accept the letter and did not have to pay for it.

In Britain, Sir Rowland Hill introduced the “Post Office Reforms” in 1837. He decided that letters could go to any place in the country for a penny even if the letter had to go far away. The cost was to be paid by the sender of the letter. Payment was recorded by placing a small piece of coloured paper on the letter, the stamp! On May 6,1840, the first stamp called the “Penny Black” was born. Because the stamp was printed in black, the stamp became known as the “Penny Black”. This is now the world’s most famous stamp. This new system spread fast.

1.The best title for this passage should be______

2.Before stamps were used,______ would pay for the letter.

3.The first stamp was made______.

4.Which of the following is true about the first stamp of China?

They say if you love your job, you’ll never work a day in your life. We say if you travel for work, you’ll never have a boring commute(上下班往返) a day in your life. If the typical 9-to-5 isn’t working for you, here are some options that will pay you to travel. No matter your current skill set, you can probably do it somewhere else.

Represent abroad

The State Department is actively hiring Foreign Service Officers, and it’s probably easier than you think to become one. You’ll have to a lot of tests, but if you pass, you’ll spend the next years of your life working around the world. A Junior Foreign Service Officer starts at $71,000 a year.

Teaching English as a Second Language abroad is one of the best ways to deepen understanding of another culture. There’s no need to be a certified English teacher in order to go abroad. In this program in China, soon-to-be teachers go abroad to obtain their Teaching English as a Foreign Language(TEFL) certifications. A beginning teacher in China will earn $2,500 for working six months, plus room and board.

Carnival is hiring an art auctioneer to work aboard a luxury cruise ship. The only qualifications necessary are a college degree and public speaking skills. Going…going…sold.

Are you angry？Unhappy in your job？Wish you had an outlet for those feelings?

Well, if you lived in Buenos Aires, Argentina, you could go to the Break Club. It’s made up of a group of people who get together to smash up rubbish as a way of venting (发泄) their aggression. They can throw bottles at the wall, or take their frustration out on an old computer.

Mora, a club member, is a 22-year-old media producer who works hard and is always stressed out. She says, “I have to deal with deadlines, with so many people and so many things every day. . . My nerves are at breaking point. Well, now it’s time I should break something too. ”

She wears overalls, thick gloves and visor (脸盔) to protect her eyes. In her hands there’s a baseball bat ready for action. After trashing an old computer monitor, Mora is almost breathless but has a smile on her face. “I feel like a new person. I’m happy! After this, I’m ready for anything！” she says.

Do you fume when your own computer crashes？Perhaps you’d feel better if you could do what 27-year-old Yamilla did to her keyboard-attack it with a hammer! The club’s creator, Guido Dodero, says Argentinians are a bit angry by nature and they like psychoanalysis. He thinks the key to the club’s success is being a mix of both.

About 85% of his clients are young women. Dodero explains: “This is still quite a macho (大男人的) country. Women feel they need to take certain roles in society. They need to break from that every now and then and the club is the place for that. ”

Some members bring a picture of an ex-fiancée to destroy. Others bring a picture of. . . Well, it could be of you or me. Natasha works in a call center and does to the old equipment what she might like to do to her callers. The young woman says her job drives her mad.
