Between the Revolutionary period and the World War I, the United States post office was
set out to improve transportation of the post office mails. From those early days to the present,
the post office has helped develop and subsidize every new mode transportation in the United
States. Transportation has been the most important element in mail delivery. Even when the
general public had still suspected of the security of a new means of transportation, the post
office experimented with inventions that offered potential for moving the mail faster,
occasionally suffering embarrassment, ridicule, or even abuse in the process.
As mail delivery evolved from foot to horseback, stagecoach, steamboat, railroad,
automobile, and airplane, with intermediate and overlapping use of balloons, and helicopters,
post office mail contracts ensured the income necessary to build the great highways, rail lines,
and airways that eventually spanned the continent.
By the turn of the 19th<sub> century, the U.S. Post Office had purchased a number of</sub>
stagecoaches for operation on the nation’s better post roads – a post road being any road on
which the mail travels – and continued to encourage new designs to improve passenger
comfort and carry mail safely.

I. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
The scarcity of tigers and African elephants is more and more serious. They are endangered
because poachers hunt them in order to sell tiger pelts and elephant ivory.
At least 4,000 elephants are killed each year in order to meet the global demand for ivory,
which is used to make carvings, jewelry and other products although it is illegal to sell ivory
since 1989 anywhere.
“ Americans should be aware that there is still a problem with elephant poaching and loss to
the illegal ivory trade,” Ginette Hemley, Fund’s vice president for species conservation, told
The Washington Post in September. And so our message is “ Don’t buy it , and don’t take
that chance”.
A Wildlife Fund report states that the United States seized 8,300 illegal ivory items between
1995 and 2002. Each week there are about 1,000 ivory auctions, the report said.

humanity that does not have modern energy supplies like electricity, with which their life
could be improve.

smoke-free, it helps solve the problem of indoor air pollution. Moreover, plant waste and
animal manure cost almost nothing.

the Asian amateur athletic federation. In February, 1949, the Asian athletic federation was formed

I’m interested in sports, especially athletics, and I run seven or eight kilometres every
