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 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 fides and two low tides every 24
hours.
Seamen on a ship know time by looking at the moon and the stars.
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, 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.
