The umbrella is a very common object. It keeps the rain and the sun off the people. Most umbrellas can be folded up, so it is easy to carry them.
However, the umbrella has not always been as an ordinary object. In the past, it was a sign of importance. Some African countries still use umbrellas in this way. Someone carries an umbrella and walks behind the king or important person.
Umbrellas are very old. The Chinese had them more than 3,000 years ago. From there, umbrellas travelled to India and Egypt. In Greece and Rome, men wouldn't use them. They believed umbrellas were only for women.
When the Spanish explorers(探险者) went to Mexico, they saw the kings using umbrellas. English explorers saw Native American princes carrying umbrellas on the east coast(海岸)of North America. It seems that people in different parts of the world invented umbrellas at different times.
England was probably the first country in Europe where common people used umbrellas against the rain. England has a rainy climate and umbrellas are very useful there.
Everybody uses umbrellas today. The next time you carry one, remember that for centuries only great men and women used them. Perhaps you are really a king or queen, a princess or a prince.

Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The programme works because everyone’s eyes are different. So in the future you won’t have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You’ll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are. The eye-recognition(眼睛识别) programme is tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain and Italy.
Scientists are working on other systems, such as knowing you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell! And machines can already tell who you are from your voice or your fingerprint(指纹). But eye-recognition will replace other ways of finding out who you are. It is better, because your eyes don’t change as you get older, or get dirty like hands or fingers. And even twins have different eyes, so the programme can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.
