  When you send a letter or a postcard, you have to put stamps on the envelope or on the card. When did people first begin to use stamps? Who was the first to think of this idea?

  In the early nineteenth century. People did not use stamps. They had to pay postage when they received letters. Sometimes they didn't want to receive a letter at all, but they had to pay money for it. They were unhappy about this. The postage was high at that time, because the post offices had to send many people to get the postage.

  Rowland Hill was a school teacher in England. He was the first to think of using stamps in 1850s. He thought it would be much easier for people to use stamps. They could go to the post office to buy stamps and put them on envelopes before they sent the letters. The post office could just put seals on the stamps so that people could not use the stamps again. In this way, the post office did not need to send postmen to get postage. It only needed fewer postmen to send letters.

True or false:

(1) People began to use stamps at the beginning of the nineteenth century.

(2) Before stamps are used, postage was paid by the letter-receivers and was got by letter-senders.

(3) Rowland Hill gave the idea to use stamps.

(4) After stamps were used, people needn't pay postage.

(5) The passage is about how stamps began to be used.
