C.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

9、 and authority. In the Far East in ancient times , the umbrella was allowed to be used only by the king or by those in high office.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons i

10、n Europe to use the umbrella as Protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered a symbol of power and authority. By 1680, the umbre

11、lla appeared in France, and later on in England.By the 18th century the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrella have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasnt until the twentieth century that womens umbrellas w

16、aundry; food can be bought cooked, canned; bread is baked and delivered by the baker; milk arrives on the doorstep; meal can be had at the restaurant, the works canteen, and the school dining room.Its unusual now for father to persue (追求)his trade of other employment at home, and his children rarely

17、, if ever, see him at his place of work. Boys are therefore seldom, trained to follow their fathers business, and in many towns they have a fairly wide choice of employment and so do girls. The young wage-earner often earns good money, and soon gains a feeling of economic independence (经济上的独立). In t

18、extile areas it bas been customary for mothers to go out to work, but this practice has become so widespread that the working mother is now not an unusual factor in a childs home life, the number of married women in employment having more than doubled in the last twenty-five years. With mother earni

19、ng and older children drawing wages, father is seldom the most important figure that he still was at the beginning of the century. When mother works, economic advantages increase, but children lose something of great value if mothers employment prevents her from being home to greet them when they re

20、turn from school.21 The writer compares home to a workshop because _.（A）fathers often persue employment at home（B） many families produce goods at home for sale（C） both fathers and mothers in most families are workers（D）parents have to make food and necessity themselves for their daily life 22 The “w

25、me. To get a high score you have to destroy twenty tanks as quickly as possible. After this the supertanks, missiles and saucers appear. These are worth far more points than the ordinary tanks. (The number of tanks you have to destroy before the supertanks appear are various on different machines.)T

26、ry to get near an enemy tank from the side or back so it cannot shoot at you. Then when you get close, turn to it, line it up in your sights and fire before it turns to shoot at you. If you miss or are too slow, quickly get away by moving out of the enemys line of life. You can then move around the

27、enemy and come in from another side.When a supertank appears, try to destroy it. Then wait safely behind an obstacle(障碍物) for a missile or a flying saucer.

34、res of the Western World in this century. Many business such as those handling frozen foods, liquor, tabacco and medicines have been built up largely by advertisement.We might ask whether the cost of advertisement is paid for by the producer or by the customer. Since advertisement forms part of the

35、cost of production, which has to be covered by the selling price, it is the customer who pays for advertisement. However, if large scale advertisement leads to increased demand, production costs are reduced, and the customer pays less.It is difficult to measure exactly the influence of advertisement

36、 helps to increase demand. When the market is shrinking, advertisement may prevent a bigger fall in sales than would occur without its support.
