      Switzerland (瑞士) is famous for its watches. However, this country didn't invent the watch. It was the
British who did it. Here is a story of how the watch was brought to Switzerland.
      Many years ago, an Englishman was travelling to Italy. On his way he stopped in a small town in South
Switzerland. This Englishman travelled in a carriage (马车) inside which there was a carriage watch. This
was the earliest kind of watch. A native shop assistant (售货员) happened to see the watch. He wondered
what it was and asked the Englishman about it. "It is a carriage watch." said the man. This machine tells the
time but now it isn't working.
      At once the shop assistant offered to try to repair it. So the traveller handed him the watch. The assistant
was a very wise man. So it was not surprising that he managed to repair it. He even remembered how it was
made. As soon as the traveller had gone on his way, he made a watch exactly the same type.
      Thus the watch-making was started in Switzerland. Today Swiss watches are sold in stores all over the
world.
