of course its the flik flak, made by a famous swiss watch company. the flik flak is being marketed as something teaching watch for children aged 4 to 10. the watch itself does not teach children how to tell time, of course; it merely takes their imagination by presenting the hour hand as a beautiful red girl named flak and the minute hand as a tall blue boy named flik. flik points to related blue minutes on the dial, while flak points to red hour numbers. the characters and colors combined with parental help, are supposed to teach young children how to tell time.the watch comes equipped with a standard battery (电池) and a nylon band (尼龙表带). peter lipkin, the united states sales manager for the flik flak, calls it childproof if it gets dirty you can throw the whole watch in the washing machine. the product is being sold in select department stores in europe, asia and the united states for a suggested price of $25. parents who buy the watch may discover that it is one thing to tell time; its quite another for them to be on time.1. from the news report we know that _.a. parents are patient when teaching children timeb. parents have little idea of how to teach children timec. children are likely to learn time quicklyd. children enjoy wearing the flik flak watch2. the author doesnt seem to believe _. a. children will be on time if they have learnt how to tell timeb. a flik flak can help parents teach their children how to tell timec. the flik flak can take childrens imaginationd. children usually have trouble telling time if they dont wear watches3. the underlined word handicap in para. 1 meansa. displeasure b. discouragement c. disappointment d. disadvantage4. the united state sales manager calls the new watch childproof because _.a. it is designed to teach children to be on time b. it proves to be effective in teaching children timec. it is made so as not to be easily damaged by childrend. it is the childrens favorite watch(二)company: kindercarelocation: us-tx-college stationbase pay: 600$ ,.employee type: full-time employeeindustry: education-teaching-management job type: educationrequired education: 2 years degreerequired experience: at least 1 yearjobs so desirable, we hate to call it work. looking for a great opportunity and the chance to make a difference?
