In the tiny village of Angelica, New York, the post office is more than a place to get mail or send packages. There you’ll find the heart of this lovely community. It’s where villagers meet and greet friends.

When Angelica’s post office was threatened with being closed in the 1980s，a villager，Pat, came up with a plan to save it. “At Christmas time I would hear on the news about towns named Snow or Bethlehem having celebrations,” says Pat, “Why couldn’t we do the same thing with Angelica?”

Pat, who is an artist，created a postal cancellation (邮戳) design featuring an Angelica angel.

She drew her angels in a traditional fashion and submitted her suggestion to the U.S. Postal Service. Once approved, the drawing was carved into a cancellation stamp that could be used for one day only. The postmistress (女邮局局长) then had another idea to make the day even more special calling the post office Angel Station.

The large increase in mail amount saved Angelica’s post office from being closed and keeps the doors open today.

Now it’s tradition that on the first Friday in December，people come to Angelica to mail their Christmas cards. Each year the amount of mail going through the Angelica Post Office increases during late November and early December. Stamp collectors from around the world have accepted the Angel Station cancellation, some sending mail from as far away as France.

Because the stamp is destroyed each season, Pat draws a new angel that conveys season’s greetings from Angel Station every year. Post offices may close in other parts of the country, but this tiny one continues.

1.What did Pat do to save the post office?

A. She invented a new cancellation.　　 B. She hosted Christmas celebrations.

C. She gave the office a better name.　　 D. She designed a special set of stamps.

2.Which of the following can best describe Pat?

A. Stubborn and determined.　　 B. Humorous and intelligent.

C. Curious and friendly.　　 D. Creative and warm-hearted.

3.What can we learn about Angelica’s post office from the passage?

A. It was complately closed in the 1980s.

B. Its name has been changed many times.

C. Its stamp remains the same each season.

D. It is also the centre of local social life.

These days, people who do manual work often receive far more money than people who work in offices.

He will soon be working in an office. He will earn much less than he used to, but he feels that his rise in 　 　 is well worth the loss of money. From now on, he will wear a suit all day and others will call him 'Mr. Bloggs' 　　 　 'Alf'.
