A small watchmaker in Switzerland in 1922 designed the first automatic（自动的）watch to show
the day, month, and date, Only seven of these splendid watches were ever made and these watches were
almost lost to history. Today, it is so hard to get an original（首批的）watch that some watch historians
are even willing to offer $ 200,000 for one.
These watches attracted a lot of people for their splendid color, fashionable style, and new uses in the
1920s. The owners of the watches were admired and set apart from the crowd. Because the number of
the original watches is very limited, owning such a watch will make you feel very special.
Today, you are offered the same kind of watch with improvement. It has a 24-jewel mechanical
（机械的）movement, the kind desired by watch collectors, The watchmaker has made the movement
of the watch much more modern with an automatic rotor（上弦装置）so that the watch never needs to
be wound by hand. The watch comes in a very beartiful case with a crocodile design on it. To get a watch
in such a perfect design to know history and to wear such a watch will show your personal taste and social
position.
You can get the watch either in person or by mail all an affordable price. You will also receive good
service from the watch seller. If you are not satisfied with the watch after you get it, you may simply return
it within 30 days. Don’t miss the chance to realize your dream.

查看习题详情和答案>>Breathe, wave and smile.Along with more than 300 other seniors, I marched into the stadium on the afternoon of May 10. The audience burst into deafening cheers. The huge stadium shook with all the whistling and clapping.
It was as if a Hollywood superstar had walked on stage. And indeed, every single senior that day was a star of the moment. Each deserved it. The seniors had been preparing for four years for this once-in-a-lifetime moment—the commencement(graduation ceremony).
Seated, I waited anxiously for the opening address. As a foreign exchange student, I was not able to receive a diploma. However, I still had the wonderful feeling of being part of things. Like the other graduates, I was dressed in marron cap and gown.
Our principal, Mr Glover, delivered a short, warm greeting. The US national anthem followed and then, hands on chests, a solemn Pledge of Allegiance(美国的爱国誓言).
Students who had excelled academically gave farewell speeches. The tears in some eyes convinced me that many had deep feelings about the occasion. It was as the class motto says, “Life brings us tears, smiles and memories. The tears dry; the smiles fade; but the memories last forever.”
Then came the core(the most important part) of the commencement. Hundreds of names were announced. Each graduate walked across the stage to receive his or her diploma from the principal. From the different cheers each graduate got, we had the funny sense that it was a kind of competition of who could cheer the loudest.
To be honest, the presentation of diplomas got boring. A girl sitting next to me even started yawning. But it wasn’t boring for those receiving the diploma: they would treasure the moment the principal placed the sacred brown document in their hands for the rest of their lives.
A new page in the book of that person’s life had turned. They were glimpsing their futures: futures of challenge, hardship, perhaps loneliness too, which would take all of their courage.
