The Development of American Postal System
In the early days of the United States， postal charges were paid by the recipient and chargesvaried with the distance carried. In 1825， the United States Congress permitted local postmastersto give letters to mail carriers for home delivery， but these carriers received no government salary and their entire compensation depended on what they were paid by the recipients of individual letters. In 1847， the United States Post Office Department adopted the idea of a postage stamp，which of course simplified the payment for postal service but caused grumbling by those who did not like to pi"epay. Besides， the stamp covered only delivery to the post office and did not include carrying it to a private address. In Philadelphia， for example， with a population of 150，000， people still had to go to the post office to get their mail. The confusion and congestion of individual citizens looking for their letters was itself enough to discourage use of the mail. It is no wonder that， during the years of these cumbersome arrangements， private letter-carrying and express businesses developed. Although their activities were only semi-legal， they thrived and actually advertised that between Boston and Philadelphia they Were half-day speedier than the government mail.
The government postal service lost volume to private competition and was not able to handle efficiently even the business it had. Finally， in 1863， Congress provided that the mail carriers who delivered the mail from the post offices to private addresses should receive a government salary，and that there should be no extra charge for that delivery. But this delivery service was at first confined to cities， and free home delivery became a sing of urbanization. In 1890， of the 75 million people in the United States， fewer than 20 million had mail delivered free to their doors. The rest; nearly three quarters of the population， still received no mail unless they went to their post OffiCe.

His Own Way to Express Love
Yesterday was our three-year anniversary. We didn"t do anything romantic; we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and the future. This was pretty much what I had expected.
Andy is an unromantic guy : no sweet words or roses. Smart as he is， he is a little bit shy expressing his love. In contrast， I am an outspoken（直言不讳） girl who likes to show her feelings directly. So needless to say， I often feel that he is insensitive. I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words.
I was in this sullen mood until I heard a beautiful sentence one day: "If one does not love you in the way you like， it does not mean that he does not love you. " This simple but sensible sentence made me think about our happy days and recall his deep concern for me.
One，cold winter night， I got a high fever. He hurried to my dormitory and took me to the hospital. He was in such a hurry that he even forgot to wear socks. After arrival， he ran through the hospital handling all the formalities（ 手续 ）. When I was put on a drip （点滴）， he told me interesting stories to make me happy. Being held in his warm arms and listening to his tender（ 温柔的） voice， I had never felt so safe and comfortable. Gradually， I fell asleep. When I woke up 15 minutes later， he was still mumbling（咕哝地说） to me. He explained that if he had stopped talking I would have woken up. At that moment， I found love in his eyes.
Another time， I had a bad quarrel with my best friend. Although I knew it was my fault， I refused to admit it. I was angry when he insisted I apologize to her. He said that it was difficult to admit a mistake， but this was what everyone shduld do. The next morning， I apologized to my friend and asked for her forgiveness.
My unromantic boyfriend cares about my health like my father， understands me like my mother"and helps me like my elder brother.
Who is Andy? . 查看材料
A.The writer"s father.
B.The writer"s uncle.
C.The writer"s elder brother.
D.The writer"s boyfriend.
