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

The sun might be 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, 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（是否）it's day or night but also it's morning, noon, or afternoon. When the sun is almost directly（恰好）overhead, it's noon.

People who live near the sea learn from the tides. In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for 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 know time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is the 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 like the one in the picture, you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom part in one hour. When the hourglass is turned over, the sand will take another hour to go back again.

1.The Eskimos in the far north can’t use the sun for a clock because ______.

A. they know very little about the sun

B. the sun there never goes down in winter.

C. it’s too cold for them to go out to watch the sun
