参考解析
解析：
第五段指出“19世纪，邮政服务奠定了国内和国际交流的基石。邮票的出现、较低的价位和由发信人付费都对邮政服务的发展至关重要。在1840年英国使这些想法都成为了现实”，由此可知选项B（邮票是在英国发明的）和选项D（1840年邮政服务是英国国内交流的主要方式）都符合原文。从文章第六段提到的美国商人可通过邮政服务收集信息，邮政促进废奴思想的传播等可以看出postal service在美国获得独立方面起到了促进作用，因此选项C也正确。文章中并未提到“美国有权流产主义者”对其态度。

共用题干第二篇The Development of American Postal SystemIn the early days of the United States,postal charges were paid by the recipient and charges varied with the distance carried.In 1825,the United States Congress permitted local postmasters to 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 prepay. 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 sign 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.Which of the following statements about free home delivery in the United States of the late 19th century is NOT true?A:Mail carriers got paid by recipients.B:Mail carriers got paid by government.C:Most people still went to post office to get mails.D:Only people living in big cities could have the service.
