They waxed (给……打蜡) their paper umbrellas so that they could be used when it was raining. The word “umbrella” comes from the Latin word, umbra. It means shade (背阴). Starting in the 16th century, the umbrella became popular in the Western world, especially in northern Europe, where it often rains. At first, people thought that the umbrella was only suitable for women. Then a famous English traveler, Jonas Hanway (1712-1786), carried and used an umbrella in England for thirty years. Because of him, men began to use umbrellas. In Europe, early umbrellas were made of wood and covered with canvas (帆布). People used very hard wood to make umbrella handles. In 1852, Samuel Fox invented a new kind of umbrella with ribs (伞骨) made of steel. Samuel also started a company called English Steels Company.

This plastic is bad for wildlife and the environment. It can take hundreds of years to decompose (分解) and it pollutes the world’s oceans. The new ‘potato plastic’ could replace normal plastic. It decomposes after only two months. Maybe, one day soon, we will see all single-use plastic replaced by ‘potato plastic’! 6．Who is Pontus 7．What is Pontus’s invention made from 8．Is single-use plastic bad for our planet 9．How long does it take for the new ‘potato plastic’ to decompose （23-24九年级上·辽宁丹东·期末）阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题，并将答案写在答题卡的相应位置上。 Many people ask me what my favorite invention is.
