本文介绍了美国邮政业的发展现状,是属于文化背景知识方面的选材.在高考试卷阅读理解题中有介绍美国飞机、地铁业发展现状的背景材料,这是极力提倡的选材,平时应多看这方面的原文材料,以扩展自己的知识水平.
Every town in the United Sates has a post office. Some are very small, and you may also find them in the corner of a shop. Others are large buildings. They are open five days a week and Saturday mornings. From Monday through Friday they are usually open from 8:30 to 4:30.
If you know how much the postage(邮资) is for your letter, you can buy stamps at any window. In some post offices you can buy stamps from machines. Stamps are sold at many different prices, from one cent(美分) to many dollars. 1f you are not sure how much postage is for your letter, you may ask the man or the woman in the post office for help. He or she will give you the stamps you need. If you are sending your letters far away, you should use airmail envelopes(航空信封). Remember that postage will be more expensive for a letter to be sent outside the country.
At a post office you can also buy postcards. A postcard is cheaper than a letter. Usually the price of postage for a postcard is about half that of a letter. The postcards that you buy at a post office do not have pictures. However, also they are not to be sent outside the country.
Letters are an easy and cheap way to keep in touch with people in many different countries.

书面表达
Mrs Smith告诉几个孩子关于游泳方面的一些常识:游泳是一项很好的运动。但每年有不少人死于游泳。其中大部分是小孩,他们在无人看管的时候游泳很危险。另一些人自认为很会游泳,在水里不会发生什么事,他们出事不是因为不会游泳,而是因为不小心。所以独自一人时不要下水。如果看到禁止游泳的标记,也不要下水。如果你记住了这些,游泳将会安全多了。
请将Mrs Smith的话整理一下,形成一段80词左右的文字。开始语已给出。
