What were British people interested in the 1890s?
Do you like collecting postcards? Many people like the pictures on the postcards.
In Britain in the 1890s there was a postcard "popular fashion". People formed clubs and collected and exchanged postcards. Even Queen Victoria had her own private collection.
When Edward was the King, the British had a cheap and good postal system. If anyone wanted to tell a friend that they were coming for tea in the afternoon, they would send a postcard in the morning. "Drop me a card" was as common then as "give me a ring" is today.
In 1902 an important step was taken. The government said that half of the side that was used for the address on the postcard could be used for message, and the whole of the other side could be used for a picture. It was then the simple postcard, as we know, was created.
选项
A、King Edward.
B、Queen Elizabeth.
C、Queen Victoria.
答案
C
解析
独白第五句话指出:Even Queen Victoria...,即甚至维多利亚女王也有自己的私人(明信片)收藏。而King Edward是在下一句提出来的,该句说的是他那个时候邮政系统很好,没有涉及他是否收藏明信片;Queen Elizabeth在独白中没有提及。
