2025年暑假作业长江少年儿童出版社七年级英语第42页答案
二、阅读短文,选出与短文内容相符的最佳选项。
When I walk down the street in Jinan in summer, it’s quite difficult for me to find my way. Why? Because there are so many umbrellas in the street.
Before I came to China, I never saw people using umbrellas on sunny days. But in China, women use umbrellas even when it’s not raining. Later, I found out why.
Firstly, umbrellas keep people away from the sunshine. Jinan gets hot in summer. People sometimes use umbrellas to stay cool. But if umbrellas help us stay cool, why don’t men use them? That’s because keeping away from the sun helps women’s skin stay white.
In China, some women think white skin is beautiful. However, many women in the USA like to be tanned (晒黑的). Some of them will stay outdoors in the sun for hours to get a tan. But doing this too much can be dangerous. It’s bad for the skin.
China isn’t the only place where women use umbrellas on sunny days. Women in Greece do the same thing. So umbrellas aren’t just for rainy days.
