第二部分 阅读

短文理解

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

The postal zoning system in the Unite States began in 1943 with the introduction of the one or two digit zone number. The numbers identified a delivery station of a metropolitan post office. On July 1, 1963, Mr. Zip introduced the Zone Improvement Plan. This was a five digit national coding system used to identify each postal delivery section. The first digit identifies one of ten geographical areas, with the second digit denoting a state, part of heavily populated state, or two or three less populated states. The third digit designates (指定) a major metropolitan postal facility or sectional center, with the fourth and fifth digits picking up the original zone number.

The Federal German Post Office became the first to use the current postal code system to speed delivery. The function of a code system is to help in address scanning and the automated processing of mail, and to speed up mail sorting. Approximately 70 percent of all mail delivered in the United State uses the Zip Code. In 1974, the Unite States Postal Service issued a postage

stamp to publicize the numerical system. 1. The author mainly talks about ______.

A. the introduction of the Zone Improvement Plan

B. the meanings of the five digits in the national coding system C. the function of the coding system D. the development of the coding system

2. Which of the following is not the function of the code system? A. Speeding up mail sorting.

B. Publicizing the numerical system. C. Automated processing of mails. D. Address scanning.

3. The postal stamp was issued in order to ______. A. publicize the numerical system B. introduce a new code system
