Who was the first to think of this idea? In the early nineteenth century, people did not use stamps . They had to pay postage when they received letters. They were unhappy about this, especially when they paid for a letter which they did not wish to receive at all. The postage was high at that time, because the post offices had to send many people to collect the postage. Rowland Hill, a schoolmaster in England, was the first to put forward a proposal to use stamps in the 5os of the nineteenth century. He thought it would be much easier for people to use stamps to cover postage. They could go to the nearby post office to buy stamps and put them on envelopes before they sent the letters. The post office could simply put seals on the stamps so that people could not use the stamps again. In this way, the post office did not need to send postmen to collect postage. It only needed to send fewer postmen to deliver letters. That was a good idea and the government finally accepted it. 76. It was not until _ that people began to use stamps. A. the early 19th century B. the middle 19th century C. the late 19th century D. the beginning of the 19th century77. Before stamps were used, postage _. A. was paid by the letter-posters B. was paid by the letter-receivers C. was collected by postmen D. Both B and C78. Rowland Hill was _. A. the designer of the first stamp B. a postman in England C. the suggestion-given of using stamps D. a postmaster of a small post office79. After stamps were used, post offices neednt _. A
