Special Delivery, a domestic accelerated delivery service, was introduced on March 1885 initially with a fee of 1

Oc paid by a Special Delivery stamp It has been transformed into Express Mail that was introduced in 1977 after

an experimental period that started in 1971 though Special Delivery was not terminated until June 8,1997

Express Mail is a money-back guaranteed overnight to two-day service offering tracking, proof of delivery, and insurance up to $100 Items shipped using this service can be delivered within the 48 contiguous United States and the District of Columbia within 1 to 2 business days

One advantage of Express Mail is that the United States Postal Service (USPS) will deliver 365 days a year, including Saturdays, Sundays and holidays at no additional charge to some locations USPS competitors often charge for delivering on anything other than a business day, Unlike Priority Mail and First Class Mail, USPS does provide real-time tracking information online and by phone for Express Mail shipments

XXII Read the following passage carefully, and then answer the questions below.

Postal savings systems were offered by many nations' post offices to provide depositors who did not have access

to banks a safe, convenient method to save money and to promote saving among the poor

The first nation to offer such an arrangement was Great Britain in 1861 It was vigorously supported by Sir

Roland Hill, who successfully advocated the penny post, and William Gladstone, then Chancellor of the

Exchequer, who saw it as a cheap way to finance the public debt At the time, banks were mainly in the cities and

largely catered to wealthy customers Rural citizens and the poor had no choice but to keep their funds at home or

on their persons

The original system was limited to deposits of £30 a year with a maximum balance of £150 Interest was paid at the rate of two and one-half percent per year on whole pounds in the account Later the limits were raised to a maximum of £500 a year in deposits and no limit on the total Within five years of the establishment of the system' there were over 600,000 accounts and £8.2 million on deposit By 1927, there were twelve million accounts - one

in four Britons - with £283 million on deposit The British system was spun off into an independent bank,

Girobank

The United States began a similar system in 1911 under the Act of June 25th, 1910, it was abolished by the Act of March 28, 1966

Many other countries adopted such systems, but they have generally been abolished or spun off like Girobank, However, in Japan, the post office is one of the nation's leading bankers holding trillions of yen from conservative, risk adverse citizens The government has been criticized for using these funds to engage in uneconomical

infrastructure projects — what in America would be called 'pork barrel spending'.

Germany has, like Japan, a postal banking system: Deutsche Postbank is a subsidiary of Deutsche Post Postal banking services are available at all branches

6 I interviewed several of the men whose contracts had been terminated by the company at short notice

XIII RELATIVE CLAUSES

1 Tom, who had been driving all day, was tired and wanted to stop

2 Ann, who had been sleeping in the back of the car, felt quite fresh and wanted to go on

3 Paul, whose tires were nearly new, wanted to take the mountain road

4 Jack, whose tires were very old, wanted to stick to the tarred road

5 Mary, who didn't know anything about mountains, thought it would be quite safe to climb alone

6 He gave orders to the manager, who passed them on to the supervisors

7 Mary, whose children couldn't swim, said that there should be a notice up warning people

8 She said that the men were thieves, which turned out to be true

9 They rowed across the Atlantic, which had never been done before

10 The lorry crashed into a bus-load of school-children, six of whom were slightly injured
