These handy objects come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and there are many that
10、can easily fold into a purse or a bag in case of a sudden heavy rain. Just about everyone owns an umbrella, but not many of us give them a second thought. What follows is a brief tribute to an item that most of us take for granted. Historians are unsure of where and when exactly umbrellas came into
11、play. Some say Egypt, while others say China. What is for sure is that theyve been around a very long time. They werent intended to protect us from the rain, however. The ancient Greeks and Romans used them as shade from the sun. It was the Roman women who began to oil the cloth of the umbrella to p
12、rotect it from water. It wasnt until the 1600s that European women began to carry umbrellas, mostly as shade from the sun. Sometime in the 1700s, it became popular to carry wood and oilcloth models as protection from the rain. In 1750, an Englishman named Jonah Hanway decided to carry an umbrella ev
13、erywhere he went. This was unheard of. Only women carried umbrellas. Because of this, many people laughed at him, but at least he was dry. Ignoring the laughter of those around him, Hanway carried his umbrella for 30 years. By the late 1700s, however, it became more acceptable for men to carry “hanw
14、ays”. Because they were made of wood, umbrellas were not only expensive, but they were difficult to use. In 1852, Samuel Fox invented the steel kind that we see today. Since then, theyve evolved. We now have umbrellas for the rain and sun. We use them on the beach, while playing golf, and on our pat

16、y life.22. What can we infer from the passage?A. Men were not allowed to use umbrellas in the 1700s.B. Jonah Hanway was an umbrella salesman.C. Wood umbrellas were hard to operate but very cheap.D. It was not so strange for men to use umbrellas in the 1800s.23. What does the underlined word “evolved

The use of umbrellas in ancient times.C. Womens umbrellas in the 1600s.D. A brief introduction to the history of umbrellas.One day, I took
18、a taxi and the traffic flew smoothly along a narrow street until our taxi was brought to a sudden stop. I curiously looked forward to seeing the obstruction (堵塞). I noticed that in front of the cars, a rather vast crowd gathered in the middle of the street. In fact, people kept emerging from every d
19、irection. I asked my taxi driver if he had seen what had occurred. He said, “A stupid driver has hit a man on a bicycle. The policeman is here to end the argument.” Interesting! My taxi driver had obviously sided with the bicyclist, despite the fact that he too was a driver. He continued to explain,
20、 “All the people are coming to give their opinions on what happened.” With these words, he put out his head from the window to shout his thoughts on the accident. A vast crowd of people was gathering at the scene. Some appeared to be passing bicyclists, and some were coming from the shops along the
21、streets. I felt very surprised! It was nearly impossible that these people had all seen the accident, yet they all seemed to take a personal interest in the “justice” of the result. It was shocking that the police officer who was attending the accident seemed interested in the opinions of all those
22、who were watching! What began as a short pause was beginning to look like a long afternoon drama.Accidents like this occur every day. Each time something like this happens to me during my travel in this country, I immediately became impatient, so patience is really necessary if youre planning to vis

26、l asleep when I heard the phone ring. Interested in finding out who the late caller was, I sat up so that I could hear the phone call better. To my surprise, I heard my mom shout to my dad, “Get the car, Dean! Andrea has been in a car accident.” We ran every red light on the way to the hospital and
27、our tires screeched (发出刺耳声) around every corner. We got to the hospital but were not allowed to see her. The next morning, we were allowed to see Andrea.

28、d, and Andrea was thrown out. She was badly injured. Over the next two months, I lived more at the hospital than I did at my house. I watched as Andrea worked so hard to gain back everyday motor skills. She never once complained or pitied herself. After two weeks in the ICU and two months of the reg
29、ular hospital treatment, Andrea came home. She missed several months of school, so it was hard for her to catch up. Andrea had many tasks to finish, and however hard it was, she stuck until the job was done. Though busy dealing with pain and therapy (治疗), she always found time to love and play with
