When your great-grandparents (曾祖父母) were young, the world was very different. People did not have the kind of technology (技术) that we have to communicate with each other today. Things such as mobile phones and computers were not yet invented (被发明). It took longer for people to get news about each other. Today’s technology makes it easier and faster to stay close to people.
Long ago, people wrote letters to keep in touch. From 1860 to 1861, letters were carried by horses. The horse riders were paid to carry letters across the country. Then trains began to carry letters from city to city. By the early 1902, planes were a faster way to carry letters across the country and around the world.
As time goes by, new inventions have made it easy to contact (联系) friends and family in seconds!
People began to use telephones in the late 1800s. Modern phones can carry many things. Mobile phones can be carried with us wherever we travel. Some phones can even let you take pictures. These images can be sent to other mobile phones.
Computers have made some of the biggest changes in communication. The Internet sends e-mail messages around the world in seconds!
Although new technology helps us stay in touch with each other, many people still enjoy sending and receiving letters. With so many ways to communicate, it’s easy to find your favorite way to stay in touch.
( ) 66.When you great-grandparents were young, ________________.
A. the world was the same
B. people didn’t communicate
C. it was slower to communicate
D. mobile phones were invented
( ) 67.From the passage, we know that _________ carried letters the fastest.

( ) 68.When did people begin to use telephones?

Dear Amy,
How are you? This week we did a project on the history of London.
My grandfather said that London in the 1950s was a terrible place to live because the air pollution was so bad. There were many factories and they caused a lot of smoke. The smoke caused heavy black fog in the sky. The people of London called this “smog”.
Sometimes the smog was so thick that people could not see anything at all. Taxis and buses could not go anywhere as it was too dangerous to drive. The smog was also harmful to people's health, and some people found that it was difficult to breathe.
In 1965, the government made new laws about the pollution, and the air got much cleaner. Today it is clean and we never see smog in London, and now people find that it is not difficult to breathe any more.
    Since the 1950s, people from all over the world have come to live in London. My grandfather says that this is one of the best changes. Now he can eat food from India, China, Italy and Germany in his neighbourhood.
I like living in London today, and I am happy to have friends from all over the world.
Write back soon.
根据上面短文内容填空。(每空一词）
29. London was a ________________ place to live in the 1950s ________________ of the bad air pollution.
