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、Driving cars.
B、Playing cards.
C、Collecting postcards.
答案
C
解析
这是一段介绍收集明信片的小独白。其中第三句指出:In Britain in the 1890s there was a postcard "popular fashion",即19世纪90年代英国收集明信片是一种很流行的时尚。考生只要听清了1890s这个时间数词和其后的a postcard "popular fashion" 就不难选出答案。
