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(邮费)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 schoolteacher 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.People 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(邮戳)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.

Have you ever wondered why different animals or pests have their particular colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Birds, especially seagulls, are very fond of locusts, but birds cannot easily catch locusts because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colour of crops.When crops are green, locusts look green.But when crops are ripe, locusts take on exactly the same brown colour as crops have.Some other pests with different colours from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies.So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you will find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves.Bears, wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests.They are
usually invisible to the eyes of hunters, because they have the colour much like the barks of trees.
An even more strange act remains to be noticed.A kind of fish living in seas can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger.While the liquid spreads over, its enemies cannot find it, and it immediately swims away.Thus, it has existed up to now though it is not powerful at all.
