    　　    British postmen and milkmen have a reputation (名声) 1 being　　 cheerful. 2 they both arrive very early in the morning, when you are　　 perhaps not feeling very good-tempered (脾气), their 3 knocking and　　 bright whistling may make you feel 4. Of course, there are some gloomy　　 (忧闷的) postmen, who make you think that every letter contains sad　　 news, but the majority are pleasant. This is quite surprising, because　　 5 the mail each morning is a job which is not very 6 paid and there　　 are a great many problems.　　

    　　 　　 　　 　　

    　　    The city postman 7 go on foot, not only along streets but also up　　 and down 8, as many 9 of flats still have no lifts and no downstairs　　 letter box. If he has a registered letter to send, he has to wait for　　 someone to come to the door 10 for it. That person may greet him in a　　 most unfriendly way if he has just been woken 11 a deep sleep very　　 early in the morning.　　

    　　 　　 　　 　　

    　　     In the country, a postman may have a 12 or a small van, so he does　　 not have to walk 13, however he has his problems, too. It is very　　 annoying to be compelled to go all the way to a 14 house simply to　　 send a post card or a printed letter, when 15 makes the journey half　　 an hour 16. In winter, weather conditions are bad, but the postmen　　 must 17 in the rain or the snow. Sometimes it is impossible 18 a van　　 or a bike 19, and he has to do his round 20, like his city workmates.　　 Most country people keep a dog. Although there may be a notice on the　　 gate, "Guard 21 THE DOG", this is 22 to the postman. He is forced to　　 go in, whether the dog is dangerous or not. So every day the country　　 postman knows that, if the dog is not safely 23, it 24 bite him on the　　 leg or 25 his trousers.
