To us, it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But in fact the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade(遮蔽)
against the sun.
Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, back in the eleventh century BC.
We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there
was a strange thing connected with its use : it became a symbol of honor and power(權力). In the
Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office or by
royal people such as the kings or queens.
In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. The umbrella was in
common use in ancient Greece, but it is believed that the first people in Europe to use the umbrella
as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the middle ages in Europe, the use
of the umbrella almost disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century.
And again it became a symbol of power.
Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twentieth century that the umbrellas for women began to be made in all kinds of colors.
1. Ancient people first used umbrellas as ____.
A. a symbol of honor B. protection against the sun
C. a symbol of power D. protection against the rain
2. According to the passage, the umbrella was probably first used in ancient ______.
A. Egypt . B. Babylon C. Rome D. China
3. The underlined word royal might mean _ in Chinese.
A.皇室的 B.富裕的 C.中產的 D.平民的
4. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. The ancient Greeks used the umbrella in their daily life.
B. Europeans hardly used the umbrella during the middle ages.
C. The umbrellas for women were made colorful in ancient times.
D. The style of the umbrella hasn't changed a lot since it was invented
5. This passage is mainly about _____.
A. the sales of the umbrella B. the differences among umbrellas
C. the invention of the umbrella D. the history and the use of the umbrella
