W: Lee, where are you going?
M: To the post office, Sarah. I am going to send some packets to Mary. Do you know the best way to send them?
W: Well, if your need is for a record of posting and delivery rather than compensation for loss, recorded delivery is particularly suitable for sending documents and papers of little or no monetary value.
M: Well, what can we send for recorded delivery?
W: A11 kinds of inland postal packets except parcels, airway and railway letters and parcels. The service does not apply to mail for the Irish Republic.
M: I see. How do I post them?
W: You should get a certificate of posting from the container in the post office and follow the instructions shown on the reverse. The certificate will be your record of posting.
M: Can I send anything in the post?
W: No, you can’t. You must not send bank notes, currency notes, and some valuable things because there is no special handling in the post. Recorded delivery mail is carried with the ordinary unregistered post. And there is no special security treatment
M: How do we use recorded delivery?
W: Well, when your letter or packet is delivered it is signed for by the recipient and a record is kept by the post office. The post office does not undertake to deliver recorded delivery or any other mail, to the addressee in person, but to the address shown. You can obtain confirmation of delivery by completing an Advice of Delivery Form either at the time of posting or later. This form will be signed by a post office official, not by the addressee of the recipient. A fee is payable, which is lower if the form is handed in at the time of posting.
M: Is there any compensation for loss?
W: Well, compensation is limited. Compensation may be paid for loss or damage, but will not be paid for money or any other inadmissible item. If you want a speedy service for articles of value with extra security of handling en route, and wish to have compensation in the event of loss or damage you should use registered post.
1. According to Sarah, what is recorded delivery?
2. What can be sent by recorded delivery?
3. According to Sarah, what do we learn about the Advice of Delivery Form?
4. What do we know about the compensation of recorded delivery?
5. What can we learn from this part of the conversation?
选项
A、Recorded delivery is suitable for sending valuable things.
B、Recorded delivery is a service with extra security.
C、The packet is signed for by the addressee and a record is kept by the post office.
D、The post office delivers recorded delivery to the addressee in person.
答案
C
解析
在谈到如何使用recorded delivery时,女士提到,包裹/信件投递后收件人需签收,同时邮局会留有记录存档,因此C正确。A错在valuable things;B与there is no special security treatment(没有进行特别的安全处理)相反:D与对话中出现的The post office does not undertake to deliver…to the addressee in person相反,也可排除。
