The
umbrella
is
a
very
common
object.
It
keeps
the
1
and
the
sun
off
the
people.
Most
umbrellas
can
be
folded
up（折叠）so
it
is
2
to
carry
them.
However，
the
umbrella
was
not
always
as

as
it
is
now.
In
the
past，
it
was
a
symbol
of
importance.
Some

From

A篇
Leonardo
da
Vinci
was
born
on
April
15,
1452
in
Italy.
He
is
best
known
as
an
artist
today.
One
of
his
famous
paintings
is
called
Mona
Lisa.
However,
Leonardo
had
many
other
natural
abilities.
He
was
also
a
great
inventor.
Many
of
his
inventions
have
become
important
in
modern
day
life.
Although
Leonardo
hated
war,
he
invented
many
different
machines
used
for
war.
His
most
special
invention
was
the
machine
gun,
which
was
produced
and
used
in
war
many
years
later.
By
watching
the
way
birds
fly，Leonardo
tried
to
find
out
the
secret
of
flying.
Among
his
sketches(素描)
we
can
see
several
objects.
We
consider
them
as
modern
flying
machines.
Leonardo
spent
many
hours
thinking
about
how
to
make
good
use
of
time.
He
developed
ideas
for
labor-saving
machines
like
cutting
machines.
Leonardo
was
a
strange
man.
He
didn’t
eat
any
meat，which
was
very
unusual
in
those
times.
He
never
published
(发表）his
ideas
and
scientific
discoveries.
He
usually
used
mirror
writing，which
looks
like
writing
in
a
mirror,
starting
from
the
right
side
of
the
page
and
moving
to
the
left.
We
have
very
little
of
his
work
today.
Leonardo
finished
only
a
few
of
his
paintings.
He
left
many
unfinished
because
he
thought
they
were
not
perfect.
No
one
in
his
life
time
knew
how
great
Leonardo
was.
We
now
believe，however，that
he
was
one
of
the
cleverest
men
the
world
has
ever
known.

Skin-diving（轻装潜水）is
a
new
sport
today.
This
sport
takes
you
into
a
wonderful
new
world.
It
is
like
a
visit
to
the
moon.
When
you
are
under
the
water，it
is
easy
for
you
to
climb
big
rocks，because
you
are
no
longer
heavy.
Here，under
water，everything
is
blue
and
green.
During
the
day，there
is
plenty
of
light.
When
fish
swim
nearby，you
can

out
of

deep
sea.
Now

C篇
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(权力).
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.
11.
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
12.
According
to
the
passage,
the
umbrella
was
probably
first
used
in
ancient
?.
A.
Egypt
B.
Babylon
C.
Rome
D.
China
13.
The
underlined
word
royal
might
mean
"

in
Chinese.
A.
皇室的
B.
富裕的
C.
中产的
D.
平民的
14.
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

a

One
possible
version:
Hello！My
name
is
Yang
Tao.
It's
my
great
honor
to
be
here
to
share
my
invention—a
Language
Interpreter
with
all
of
you.
Let
me
introduce
it
to
you
step
by
step.
The
Language
Interpreter
is
the
same
size
as
a
cellphone.
But
it
is
very
useful.
If
you
input
the
language
you
want
to
translate
into，and
then
make
a
short
speech，it
can
translate
what
you
want
within
5
to
10
seconds.
You
can
talk
with
foreigners
easily
with
the
help
of
it.
It's
very
convenient
for
us
to
study
foreign
languages.
But
it
can
only
translate
several
languages.
I'll
work
hard
to
improve
it.
I'm
sure
it
will
translate
more
and
more
languages
in
the
near
future.
Thanks
for
listening!
