27、fferent places. Before writing was invented, spoken messages were carried from one person to another and it was not easy to send longer messages. Writing changed the situation, but it was still difficult to make sue that your message got to the right place.The Romans created an organized system of m

28、ail delivery( 投递)， called Cursus Publicus. This was used by the Emperor and officials to send information throughout the Empire( 帝国 Staging posts and a relay system with horses and carriages meant that messages could move quickly, by using many riders instead of one. However, the Romans were not (as

29、 many people think) the first to realize this. In 2000 BC the Egyptians used a similar system to keep people informed about the laws in the country. The Chinese and Persian empires also used systems of horses and riders more than 500 yeah before the Romans.After the Roman postal service disappeared,

30、 other systems were created in Europe, but never againas large as theRoman's.Rulersof countries or regions andevenchurches created their own official mailnetwork. It was alsovery important tobusiness between countries that good communication existed. International traders set up manyunofficial p

31、ostallinks.There wasone such linkbetween VeniceandConstantinople in the 14th century.Untilthe mid-1600s inEurope,only official messages could be carried bythestate networks; everyone else had to we less secure, unofficial networks. However. as more roads were built. unofficial networks became safer,

32、 more reliable and very profitable. Realizing they could make money, governments in most countries took control of their own public postal system, making the unofficial networks illegal.A number of countries claim to have invented the idea of stamps-placing a piece of paper on the letter showing tha

33、t the postage had been paid for. But the first widely- available stamp was the Penny Black, introduced in Britain by a man called Rowland Hill in 1840. It was a black stamp with a white picture of the Queen's head on it. Hill changed the idea of payment from distance to weight.The year before it

34、sintroduction, about 75 million letters had been posted in Britain, yet only 10 years later over 340 million letters were sent using stamp. It was a very important invention and completely changed the postal system. To buy a first-edition of this stamp today can cost over£1000.Until the 1870s i

35、t was still very expensive to send mail to other countries. The Universal Postal Union was created in 1874 to make sure that "all people in the world have affordable and reliable access to postal services". It cannot tell countries how much to charge. but it helps countries work together a

36、nd set reasonable international mail prices.With the creation of airmail, it's now cheap and quick to send letters to most parts of the world. Unfortunately, the growth of new technology (the Internet, emails, fax machines) means that traditional postal services are becoming less popular. Many p

37、eople now call traditional post "snail mail". because it does not have the speed ofan email or a text message. Remember. though it has been here for over 2000 years, and is still a way of delivering a personal message.56. Sending longer messages became easier because of . A. the invention

41、e speed of traditional post will be improvedD. The traditional postal services remain important in mail delivery. BA team of researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago found that too many kids are eating too much pizza and too many calories are doing harm to children's health."The

42、re are a lot of takeaways from the study. But the biggest thing is that parents are serving their kids too much pizza," said Dr.Will iam Dietz, one of the study's authors and the director of the Sumner M.Redstone Global Center for Prevention and Wellness at the Milken Institute of Public He

43、alth at the George Washington University.The researchers used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. which tracked the diets of more than 11.000 childrenand teenagers.Researchers figured how many children eat pizza in the United States, how often they eat it, and how much th

44、ey eat when they do.Pizza, pretty alarmingly, is the second leading source of calories in the diets of America's children, next only to grain desserts, such as cookies and other sweets. On any given day, roughly 20 percent of all children aged 2 to 11 and adolescents aged 12 to 19 eat pizza. And

45、 when they do, they eat a lot of it. When children eat pizza, they eat roughly 400 calories, according to the study. For teenagers, it's upwards of 600 calories.All that is pretty problematic, according to Dietz largely because kids don't tend to balance the pizza slices with salads, vegetab

46、les and other more nutritional（有营养的）foodstuffs. Days on which children and teenagers eat pizza are not only associated with considerably higher intakes of fat, but also, quite simply. with more food: on average, children consume 84 extra calories on the days they eat pizza, while adolescents consume

47、 an extra 230 calories."When you eat extra calories and don't compensate（抵偿）for them at another pointof the day or week it can lead to weight gain and even obesity." Dietz said.There is a Silver lining. Pizza consumption is still too high by nutrition standards, but it's lower than

48、 it used to be. Consumption（消费）fell by roughly 25 percent between 2007 and 2016, according to the study. Much of that has come at dinnerwhere it's fallen by 40 percent for children and about 33 percent for teenagers. It's unclear whether the decline has been in connection with a growing conc

49、ern over obesity, especially among the country's youth.But the drop in pizza consumption, while significant hasn't been big enough "It's a positive trend," Dietz said. "But we're not quite them yet."It's easy to see the appeal of pizza. It's cheap. Parents

50、 can buy a lot of pizzafor not a lot of money. Besides, they can buy pizza from a chain shop, a mom-and-popstore or a grocery freezer. And It's universally loved. The estimated 3 billion pizzaeaten each year in the United States is a proof of the food's unmatched popularity. Given how much t

51、he country loves pizza, what's to be done? Dietz suggests pizza withsmaller serving sizes and healthier toppings（配料）."We're not suggesting that kids avoid pizza altogether." said Dietz "But when parents serve it. it's important that they understand it's extremely calor
