Returning a Father’s Love
He was a single father， raising a 5-year-old boy by himself. He often worried about his son growing up without a mother to care for him.
One day， he went away on business， leaving the child alone. He worried about his child all the way， not knowing if he had eaten. But his child always told him not to worry. He ran home as soon as possible after he finished his work.
When he got home， the child was deep asleep. He was tired out. He was about to sleep when he was surprised to find an overturned (翻到的) bowl of noodles under the quilt (被子). He hit his sleeping son angrily， “Why are you so careless， making the quilt dirty？ Who will wash it？” It was the first time that he had hit his boy after his wife’s death.
“Sorry， but…” the child explained with tears in his eyes， “This is your supper， Daddy.” In order to let his father eat dinner when he arrived home， the child prepared two bowls of noodles: one for himself， the other for his father. He was afraid that his father’s noodles would get cold， so he placed them under the quilt!

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.
