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 in the 11th 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.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 the umbrellas for women began to be made,in all kinds of colours.

Sometimes we wish we could stop time and go back in time. Well, twice a year, some countries actually decide to______the time.

The journey began this morning almost an hour later than I had planned, although I had completed my packing before eight o’clock. I was quite clear about the fact that once I left, my house would stand empty for the first time since the day it was built. It was a strange feeling and perhaps explains why I was leaving so late. I walked around the house many times over, checking to see that all was in order.

It is hard to explain my feelings once I did finally set off. As I drove further and further from the house, I found everything looked unfamiliar(不熟悉的) to me. I began to have a feeling of nervousness mixed with excitement. I took a turning and found myself on a road circling the edge of a hill. I could sense the steep(陡峭的) drop to my left. I felt a sense of alarm that I was perhaps not on the correct road at all, but speeding off in the wrong direction. It was only the feeling of a moment, but it caused me to slow down. And even when I was sure I was on the right road, I thought I had to stop the car for a moment to think carefully.

I stopped my car and walked out of it. On the one side of the road, small trees grew closely together, while on the other I could now see the countryside far away and a town nearby.

I waked a little way along the roadside, when I heard a voice behind me. Until this point I had believed myself quite alone and I turned in some surprise. Sitting on the large stone was a thin, white-haired man. He called to me again and gave me a sign to join him. For a moment, I took him for a homeless man, but then I saw he was just some local man enjoying the fresh air and summer sunshine.
