Postal Services
We can’t imagine our life without postal services. The post-office delivers and collects our mail, and delivers newspapers and magazines every day.
If we want to post a letter and have no envelope we should go to the post-office to buy one. We should come up to the window marked “Stamps and envelopes”, buy an envelope and stamp, stick the stamp on the envelope, write the recipient’s and the sender’s addresses and drop the letter into the mail-box.
The postage of the letter depends on the type of the letter. Letters can be inland, foreign, local, registered and ordinary.
If we want to send something valuable we should post it by a registered letter. Then we should come up to the window marked “ Registered letters” and hand the letter to the clerk. The clerk will register the letter and write out a receipt. With the receipt you can trace the letter in case it is not delivered to the addressee.
At the general post office there are also windows marked “Post Restante”,”Parcels and Book-Parcels”, “Telegrams” and “Money Orders”.
If the postman can’t find the addressee and there is no sender’s address on the letter then the letter goes to the “Dead Letters” box.
To send a parcel we should go to the ”Parcels” window, take a special form, fill it in and give the parcel and the form to the clerk. The clerk will weigh the parcel on the scales and write out a receipt. The postage of the parcel depends on its weight, distance and insurance.
If some money order is sent to us then the postman drops the notification card into the letter-box. We go to the post-office, fill in the notification card (our passport or some other ID data, the sum of money we receive, the date) and give it together with the ID to the clerk. Of course we should put our signature on the notification card.
