When I was seven my father gave me a Timex, my first watch. I loved it, wore it for years, and haven't had another one since it stopped ticking a decade ago.Why Because I don't need one. I have a mobile phone and I'm always near someone with an iPod or something like that. All these devices (装置) tell the time — which is why, if you look around, you'll see lots of empty wrists; sales of watches to young adults have been going down since 2007.
But while the wise have realized that they don't need them, others — apparently including some distinguished men of our time — are spending total fortunes on them. Brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe and Breitling command shocking prices, up to ￡250,000 for a piece.
This is ridiculous.Expensive cars go faster than cheap cars. Expensive clothes hang better than cheap clothes. But these days all watches tell the time as well as all other watches. Expensive watches come with extra functions — but who needs them How often do you dive to 300 metres into the sea or need to find your direction in the area around the South Pole？So why pay that much of five years' school fees for watches that allow you to do these things
If justice was done, the Swiss watch industry should have closed down when the Japanese discovered how to make accurate watches for a five pound note.Instead the Swiss reinvented the watch，with the aid of millions of pounds' worth of advertising, as a message about the man wearing it.Rolexes are for those who spend their weekends climbing icy mountains; a Patek Philippe is for one from a rich or noble family; a Breitling suggests you like to pilot planes across the world.
Watches are now classified as “investments” (投资)．A 1994 Patek Philippe recently sold for nearly ￡350,000，while 1960s Rolexes have gone from ￡15,000 to ￡30,000 plus in a year.But a watch is not an investment.It's a toy for self satisfaction, a matter of fashion.Prices may keep going up — they've been rising for 15 years.But when fashion moves on, the owner of that ￡350,000 beauty will suddenly find his pride and joy is no more a good investment than my childhood Timex.
8．The sales of watches to young people have fallen because they .
A．have other devices to tell the time
B．think watches too expensive
C．prefer to wear an iPod
D．have no sense of time
9．It seems ridiculous to the writer that .
A．people dive 300 metres into the sea
B．expensive clothes sell better than cheap ones
C．cheap cars don't run as fast as expensive ones
D．expensive watches with unnecessary functions still sell
10．What can be learnt about Swiss watch industry from the passage

B．It's hard for the industry to beat its competitors.
C．It wastes a huge amount of money in advertising.
D．It's easy for the industry to reinvent cheap watches.
11．Which would be the best title for the passage

How to get out of bad habits
Most of us have one or a few bad habits that we'd like to get out of. 16 I have a few suggestions that have helped me and people around me.Here are some tips that can help you finally get out of that bad habit.
17 If you tell people around you that you will stop smoking or start to exercise three times a week，then they will check up on you.And you will feel you have to keep your promise because it is let out into the world.
Avoid temptations (诱惑). 18 Places where you are likely to spend too much money.Things in your cupboard that will not help you to get healthier and you should not have at home at all.And people that drag (拉) you down and back into your old ways.
19 It may seem like a good idea to change your life all at once.In our daily life, stress and lack (缺乏) of energy usually lead to failure.Don't try to be Superman or Wonder Woman.Take it easy and break one habit at a time.
20 You will probably not succeed the first time you do it.You fail and you make mistakes when you make changes and try new things.That's just life and nothing to feel bad about.What you should do next is try again.
A．Tell your friends and family.
B．Know what usually gets you into bad habits.
C．See your future in your mind.
D．The reason why we need to make good habits.
E．But how do you do it
F．Don't break more than one habit at a time.

When I was seven my father gave me a Timex, my first watch. I loved it, wore it for years, and haven't had another one since it stopped ticking a decade ago.Why Because I don't need one. I have a mobile phone and I'm always near someone with an iPod or something like that. All these devices (装置) tell the time — which is why, if you look around, you'll see lots of empty wrists; sales of watches to young adults have been going down since 2007.
But while the wise have realized that they don't need them, others — apparently including some distinguished men of our time — are spending total fortunes on them. Brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe and Breitling command shocking prices, up to ￡250,000 for a piece.
This is ridiculous.Expensive cars go faster than cheap cars. Expensive clothes hang better than cheap clothes. But these days all watches tell the time as well as all other watches. Expensive watches come with extra functions — but who needs them How often do you dive to 300 metres into the sea or need to find your direction in the area around the South Pole？So why pay that much of five years' school fees for watches that allow you to do these things
If justice was done, the Swiss watch industry should have closed down when the Japanese discovered how to make accurate watches for a five pound note.Instead the Swiss reinvented the watch，with the aid of millions of pounds' worth of advertising, as a message about the man wearing it.Rolexes are for those who spend their weekends climbing icy mountains; a Patek Philippe is for one from a rich or noble family; a Breitling suggests you like to pilot planes across the world.
Watches are now classified as “investments” (投资)．A 1994 Patek Philippe recently sold for nearly ￡350,000，while 1960s Rolexes have gone from ￡15,000 to ￡30,000 plus in a year.But a watch is not an investment.It's a toy for self satisfaction, a matter of fashion.Prices may keep going up — they've been rising for 15 years.But when fashion moves on, the owner of that ￡350,000 beauty will suddenly find his pride and joy is no more a good investment than my childhood Timex.

9．It seems ridiculous to the writer that .
A．people dive 300 metres into the sea
B．expensive clothes sell better than cheap ones
C．cheap cars don't run as fast as expensive ones
D．expensive watches with unnecessary functions still sell

B．It's hard for the industry to beat its competitors.
C．It wastes a huge amount of money in advertising.

B．My Childhood Timex
C．Watches？Not for Me!
D．Watches — a Valuable Collection
解析：选C 标题归纳题。文章主要讲了了解时间的途径很多，现在手表的附加功能不实用，手表的时尚容易过时等方面的内容，即可归纳出主旨为C项，A项是两者的选择比较，由文意可知作者不需要任何手表，所以A项不对，B项、D项都是文章的部分内容，所以不对。

How to get out of bad habits
Most of us have one or a few bad habits that we'd like to get out of. 16 I have a few suggestions that have helped me and people around me.Here are some tips that can help you finally get out of that bad habit.
17 If you tell people around you that you will stop smoking or start to exercise three times a week，then they will check up on you.And you will feel you have to keep your promise because it is let out into the world.
Avoid temptations (诱惑). 18 Places where you are likely to spend too much money.Things in your cupboard that will not help you to get healthier and you should not have at home at all.And people that drag (拉) you down and back into your old ways.
19 It may seem like a good idea to change your life all at once.In our daily life, stress and lack (缺乏) of energy usually lead to failure.Don't try to be Superman or Wonder Woman.Take it easy and break one habit at a time.
20 You will probably not succeed the first time you do it.You fail and you make mistakes when you make changes and try new things.That's just life and nothing to feel bad about.What you should do next is try again.
A．Tell your friends and family.
B．Know what usually gets you into bad habits.
C．See your future in your mind.
