　　A

　　Switzerland（瑞士）is famous for its watches. However, this country did not 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 traveling to Italy. On his way he stopped in a small town in South Switzerland. This Englishman traveled in a carriage（四轮马车）inside which there was a carriage watch. This was the earliest kind of watch. A native shop assistant 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 traveler 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 traveler had gone on his way, he made a watch exactly the same type.

　　Thus watch-making was started in Switzerland. Today Swiss watches are sold in stores all over the world.

　　DARWIN（达尔文）

　　Darwin was not a bright boy. He was much slower than his younger sister, and he was in many ways a naughty boy. However, at the age of eight he was trying to make out the names of all plants he saw, and he was busy collecting all sorts of things. And he even imagined producing coloured roses by watering them with certain colored liquids. Once he read the book Wonders of the World ,he wished to work wonders himself some day.

　　One summer vacation Darwin became a great collector of beetles（甲虫）.At that time he only collected them but made no scientific study of them. One day on tearing off the bark（树皮）he saw some unusual beetles, and seized one in each hand, then he saw a third and new kind, which he could not bear to lose, so that he put the one that he held in his right hand into his mouth. But it sent out some gas, which burned his tongue. He was forced to spit it out. It was lost, so was the third one.
