  How could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere in the world?

  The sun was probably the world’s first“clock”, except in the far north, where the Eskimos(爱斯基摩人)live.There, it’s dark most of the winter, and light most of the summer.But in most of the world, people have used the sun fooday, if you don’t have a clock that shows time, you still know that when the sun shines, it’s day, and when it’s dark, it’s night.The sun can not only tell you whether it’s day or night but also it’s morning, noon, or afternoon.When the sun is almost directly overhead, it’s noon.

  People who live near the sea from the tides.In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach.And then it about six hours.The same thing happens again at night.There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.

  Seamen on a ship leall time by looking at the moon and the stars.The whole sky is their clock.In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing.In these places the wind can be the clock.

  A sand clock is an even better clock.If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the the sand will take another hour to go back again.

     "I look at the beauty of the clothes firstly and then style and fit come second. Price is never really
something that I consider,”  says Augustine Masilela, a owner of a kids' clothing shop.    
     For Masilela, there is no limit (限制) to the amount she will take on children's clothes.    
     If she thinks the quality and style are great, she will take it. 
     Sonia Motaung does not mind throwing a few fashionable numbers into her seven-year-old kid's
wardrobe(衣柜).      
     "I believe a child should keep a child. She must still be able to play but not look careless, " she
says.      
     Some parents say boys are difficult to shop for.     
      " To make my son look good , I dress him in designer labels (栎签) , "  says Kgomotso  
Mogotlane.     
     She says shopping for her three-year-old boy can be a null thing, but she has thought of lots of ways to make it fun.      
     While it is often a parent that decides on a child's wardrobe, some mothers let their kids choose.      
     "I go shopping with my four-year-old son and let him choose what he wants, " says Uyanda Mbuli.      
     Of course, when they reach a certain age, children start choosing their own coats.      
     "I like to go with my mother when she buys my clothes because then I can choose what I want, " says
Sipho Mdluli( 12) .      
     Whether it's the kids who choose what they want to be seen in or their parents who take the lead,
children are surely looking cool.

An American friend has invited you to visit his family. You’ve never been to an American’s home before, and you’re not sure what to do. Should you take a gift? How should you dress? What time should you arrive? What should you do when you get there? Glad you asked. When you’re the guest, you should just make yourself at home. That’s what hospitality(款待) is all about: making people feel at home when they’re not. 
The question of whether or not to bring a gift often makes guests squirm(难为情). Giving your host a gift is not just a social manner in some cultures-it’s expected. But in American culture, a guest is not necessary to bring a present. Of course, some people do bring a small present to their host to show their thanks. The right gifts for the host might be flowers, candy, and you can bring toys if the family has small children. If you choose not to bring a gift, dont worry. No one will even notice.
【小题1】The passage talks about ______.
