"learn time slowly" because "they don't wear watches" and "parents don't really know how to teach them time."
The children grow up with this handicap and become adults and then can't get to work on time. Is there an
answer to this problem? Of course it's the Flik Flak, made by a famous Swiss watch company.
The Flik Flak is being marketed as something teaching watch for children aged 4 to 10. The watch itself
does not teach children how to tell time, of course; it only "takes their imagination" by presenting the "hour"
hand as a beautiful red girl named Flak and the "minute" hand as a tall blue boy named Flik. Flik points to "blue"
minutes on the dial (钟面), while Flak points to "red" hour numbers. The characters and colors together with
parental help, are supposed to teach young children how to tell time.
Peter Lipkin, the United States sales manager for the Flik Flak, calls it "childproof: if it gets dirty you can
throw the whole watch in the washing machine," The product is being sold in some department stores in
Europe, Asia and the United Stares for a suggested price of $25. Parents who buy the watch may find that it
is odd thing to tell time; it's quite another for them to be on time.
B.parents have little idea of how to teach children time
C.children in every country learn time slowly
D.children enjoy wearing the Flik Flak watch
B.特点
C.失望
D.不足
B.it proves to be useful in teaching children time
C.it is made so as not to be easily broken by children
D.it is the children's favorite watch

The undersea world is very beautiful. Now more and more people want to dive in the water to find the secrets there. Scuba diving is a new sport today. It can take you into a wonderful undersea world.
You will find many strange animals in the sea. Some are as large as a school bus. Many sea animals give out light in the dark and some have sharp teeth.
During the day, there is enough light. Here, under the sea, everything is blue and green. When fish swim nearby, you can catch them with your hands. When you have bottles of air on your hack, you can stay in deep water for a long time. However, you can't dive too deep. And you must be very careful when you dive in deep water.
The deep sea is not an easy place to live in. It's cold, and it's dark, too. The deeper it is, the less sunlight there is. At about 3,000 feet, there is no light at all. It is dark in the sea. Many fishes have no eyes. Some have big eyes. A few have eyes on one side.
Besides
