watch.I loved it，wore it for years，and havent had another one since it stopped ticking a decade ago.Why？Because I dont need one.I have a mobile phone and Im always near someone with an iPod or something like that.All these devices(装置)tell the timewhich is why，if you look around，youll 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 dont need them，othersapparently including some distinguished men of our timeare 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 functionsbut 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 were done，the Swiss watch industry should have closed down when the Japanese discovered how to make accurate watches for a fivepound 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.Its a toy for selfsatisfaction，a matter of fashion.Prices may keep going uptheyve 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.1The sales of watches to young people have fallen because they_.Ahave other devices to tell the timeBthink watches too expensiveCprefer to wear an iPodDhave no sense of time2It seems ridiculous to the writer that_.Apeople dive 300 metres into the seaBexpensive clothes sell better than cheap onesCcheap cars dont run as fast as expensive onesDexpensive watches with unnecessary functions still sell3What can be learnt about Swiss watch industry from the passage?AIt targets rich people as its potential customers.BIts hard for the industry to beat its competitors.CIt wastes a huge amount of money in advertising.DIts easy for the industry to reinvent cheap watches.4Which would be the best title for the passage?ATimex or Rolex?BMy Childhood TimexCWatches？Not for Me!DWatchesa Valuable Collection参考答案.1答案：deposits2答案：governed3答案：accumulated4答案：hydrogen5答案：diverse.答案：1.E2.C3.D4.B5.A.1答案：hope后加that2答案：beingsbeing3答案：andbut4答案：beginbegan5答案：去掉must或mustshould.1答案：would not get so angry2答案：Youd better tell him3答案：he finish his homework4答案：youd better see a doctor5答案：you turned to her for help.1解析：那位老人坚持说那男孩不是贼，坚决要求放了他。此处insist表示“坚持认为”，第一空不用虚拟语气，suggested后的宾语从句要用虚拟语气，谓语动词用(should) do。答案：A2解析：天黑了，我该回家了。ought to后接动词原形。答案：A3解析：在Its time that.的从句中谓语动词用过去式。答案：C4解析：他应该考试及格，但是他浪费了那么多时间。ought to have done should have done表示过去应该干某事却没有干。答案：B5解析：如果我是你，我不会那么频繁地去电影院。根据would not have gone.可知该题是表示“与过去事实相反”的虚拟语气，但是，空白处表示一种状态，因此填入If I were you。答案：C.1解析：细节理解题。由第一段最后一句“All these devices tell the timewhich is why，if you look around，youll see lots of empty wrists.”可知很多装置都可知时间，即A项正确。答案：A2解析：细节理解题。从第三段第四句“But these days all watches tell the time as well as all other watches”中的“But”一词的转折含义来看，作者认为
