背景文化知識,介紹在美國如何購物、生活.
A friend's grandfather came to America from Eastern Europe(東歐). After being processed(移民入境檢查) at Ellis Island, he went into a cafeteria(自助餐廳) in lower Manhattan to get something to eat. He sat down at an empty table and waited for someone to take his order(點(diǎn)菜). Of course nobody did. At last, a woman with a plate full of food sat down opposite him and told him how a cafeteria worked.
“Start out at that end,” she said. “Just go along the line and pick out what you want. At the other end they'll tell you how much you have to pay.”
“I soon learned that's how everything works in America.” the grandfather told a friend. “Life is like a cafeteria here. You can get anything you want only if you are willing(愿意) to pay the money. You can even get success(成功), but you'll never get it if you wait for someone to bring to you. You have to get up and get it yourself.”

本文介紹了美國郵政業(yè)的發(fā)展現(xiàn)狀,是屬于文化背景知識方面的選材.在高考試卷閱讀理解題中有介紹美國飛機(jī)、地鐵業(yè)發(fā)展現(xiàn)狀的背景材料,這是極力提倡的選材,平時應(yīng)多看這方面的原文材料,以擴(kuò)展自己的知識水平.
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(郵資) 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.
