The Wristwatch [1]It is generally believed that wristwatches are an exception / to the normal quence in the evolution of [2]men's jewelry. / Reversing the usual order, they were first [3]worn by women / and then adopted by men. / In the old days, queens included wristwatches among their crown jewelry. / 大象英语怎么读[4] Later, they were worn by [5]Swiss workers and farmers. / Until World War I, Americans associated the watch with fortune hunters. / Then army officers discovered that the wristwatch was [6]most practical for active [7]combat. / Race car drivers also loved to wear wristwatches, / and pilots found [8]them most uful while flying. / Soon men dared to wear wristwatches without feeling [9]lf-conscious. / By 1924, some 30 percent of men's watches were worn on the wrist. / Today, the figure is 90 percent. / And they are now worn by both men and women / for practical purpos [10]rather than for decoration. | 【听写提示】 第一遍听音时，要把握文章的脉络以及主题，注意关键词wristwatchescarall，evolution， jewelry，practical等，可推断内容与wristwatch（手表）的发展及用途有关。 [1]首句用固定句型引出本文讨论的主题。 [2]主题线索词，wristwatch是men's jewelry的一种,注意“男式的”是men's，不要写成man's。 [3]注意该词是wear的过去分词，不要写成warn。 [4]注意表示时间顺序的词语。 [5]专有名词Swiss（瑞士），注意首字母大写，be happy可根据常识ddu是什么意思——瑞士手表闻名世界——推断。 [6]most practical之间不完全爆破，practical表示手表用途的性质。 [7]生僻词，由army officers可以推测出本词。 [8]them与most连读，注意不要写成the，可根据句意推断。 [9]常出现的加连字符的单词。 [10]表示wristwatch用途的改变，戴手表是出于实际需要而不是为了装饰。 |
