When I walk down the street in Changsha in summer, It’s quite difficult for me to find out my way. Why? Because there are so many umbrellas (雨伞) in the street.

Before I come to China, I never saw people taking umbrellas on sunny days. But in China, women take umbrellas when it’s raining. Later, I know why.

Firstly, it keeps people away from the sunshine. Changsha gets hot in summer. People sometimes take umbrellas to stay cool. But if umbrellas help us stay cool, why don’t men take them? That’s because keeping away from the sun helps women’s skin (皮肤) stay pale (白皙的). In China, people think pale white skin for women is more beautiful than tanned (晒成棕色的) skin. However, women in the US like to be tanned. Some people will stay outdoors in the sun for hours to get a tan. But doing this much can be dangerous. It's bad for the skin.

China isn't the only place where women take umbrellas on sunny days. Women in Greece( 希腊) also do this. So umbrellas aren't just for rainy days.
