【答案解析】[听力原文] W: Post offices offer lots of services nowadays, don't they? 12Years ago, you could only send mails, save money, and send or collect money at the post office.

They each have different conditions and interest rates. M: You can buy things at post office that were never sold there before. 13You can buy sweets, newspapers, birthday and Christmas cards...

M: I think it's better for some things, like sending and receiving money, but if you need to post something it sometimes takes longer than it used to. W: I seldom post something.
