【答案与解析】
这是一篇关于付资邮票起源的历史小故事。故事发生在一百多年前的英国。当时的情况是,写信人不用付邮资,收信人在收到信件时才付邮资,且邮资十分昂贵。一位小姐收到男友的来信,看了看信封又交给了邮差。她说自己付不起钱。这时一位名叫Sir Rowland Hill的绅士替她付了钱。接下来,这位小姐便给大家讲了自己不拆开信的缘由和一个很感动人的故事。Sir Rowland Hill.从这件事上很受启发。他决定改变这种状况。后来政府采纳了Sir Rowland Hill.的建议,于是世界上第一枚付资邮票从些便产生了。
1. A 文末The first postage stamp was put out in 1840.一句只是讲了第一枚邮票是1840年发行的,并未说出发明人是谁。考虑到故事发生在150年前的英国,故唯有A才符合题意。
