How do we know the time? A clock, a watch or a cell phone can help us. However many years ago there were no clocks and knowing the time was not so easy. Over the centuries people have developed different w【1】of telling the time.

About 5,500 years ago, the Egyptians i【2】the sun clock. This was a tall stone structure. Its shadow (影子)showed the movement of the s【3】they were able to determine（测定）midday.

About 3,500 years ago,the Egyptians made a sundial. It was smaller than the sun clock and could measure (测量)the time for half a day. On c【4】days or at night it was impossible to tell the time with a sun clock or a sundial.

Water clocks were the f【5】clocks not to use the sun. The idea is simple. Water flows（流动） from one container（容器）to another. When the water reaches a certain l 【6】 it moves a lever (控制杆)and this shows the hours. The Egyptians used water clocks about 3,400 years ago. These clocks were popular in the Middle East and China but they f【7】

In the 13th century. the mechanical clock was invented. This was more accurate, b【8】was expensive to make. Over the next few centuries it was developed. For example, springs(发条)were added around 1500. This i【9】accuracy and allowed clocks to be smaller.

In 1927, the first quartz clock was developed. Clocks became cheaper to build and own. People began depending on them more and more to run businesses, markets and so on.

More recently, in1956, came the digital clock. And nowadays satellites（人造卫星）send our cell phones the time to the exact second. There has been a lot of progress in timekeeping but some things never c【10】. Man of us still have trouble getting out of bed on time and not missing appointments.

You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school. School is also the place where you learn to get on well with people. 61But this is not always easy__What can you do if you just don’t like one of your classmates?

__If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others. We cannot change the way that other people do, so it is important to lean to live happily with them.

Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Getting to know someone may help you understand why he does things differently. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep a temperate and open mind.

You need to remember an old saying, 63“Treat others how you want to be treated.” If you tolerate something, it does not mean that you have to like it.64现在，没有人要求你改变自己。 Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change.

It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make everyone’s life easier.65学会接受能力兴趣与自己不同的人。The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.
