When I was a teenager, I wrote postcards to show my friends new places I had explored every time my family took a vacation. I consider postcards as simply a way to share travels until I came across my grandmother's postcard album.
It was a dark green laser album where most of the pictures did not reflect the holiday or travel destination. Instead, the notes were most invitations to a dinner party or a walk next day.
“Why do these postcards ask you to come to tea ” I ask my grandmother. “Because this is how we communicated before we had a telephone,” She said. “I would post the postcard in the morning mail and a friend would receive in the afternoon then she would post a reply that arrived in my mail the next morning.”
I was surprised. Life without a phone sounded like something out of the world. Connecting by postcards seemed as unexpected as using a carrier pigeon(信鸽). I'd forgotten about my grandmother post until lockdown restricted our trips to seeing our three granddaughters. Remembering my grandmother's album, I bought several sets of cards and every few weeks. I’d write notes and mail them. The girl sometimes responded with brief thank-you texts.
The one day I opened my mailbox and spotted three hand addressed and lobes. They were from my granddaughters, each thanking me for the postcards and described how my messages had comforted them.
I've been thinking how my grandmother had accepted the telephones a new way to keep relations. Like her, I accepted my girls’ preferred mode of communication and texted my thanks for their letters. However, even as lockdowns end, I will continue to send them postcards because everyone enjoys receiving a real letter.
Why did the suthor’s grandmother write postcards
To share of travel experiences. B. To show love and care
C. To kill the time. D. To keep in touch with the people.
5. What Did the author think of life without a phone？
A. It was unbelievable. B. It was peaceful.
C. It was just as usual. D. It was attractive.
6. How did they also feel when receiving her granddaughter's letters

7. Which one should be the title for the text
A. An old postcard album. B. New ways of communication.
C. Love during Lockdowns. D. Attraction of postcards
