会“跑”的闹钟

作者: 周亚丽

Some students like sleeping late,so their parents buy alarm clocks.But sometimes the students close the alarm and go on sleeping.

Scientists in the USA have invented a new alarm clock.Its name is Clocky.If we have this clock,the doziest sleepers will get up.The clock has a set of wheels.It can run down from the table,and then it goes to another part of the room and sounds again.Everyday Clocky finds different places to hide itself.So the sleeper can't close it.

有些同学喜欢睡懒觉,所以爸爸妈妈专门买了闹钟。但是,他们常常会关掉闹铃,然后继续呼呼大睡。

美国科学家发明了一种新型闹钟,它的名字叫“Clocky”。有了这种闹钟,最想睡懒觉的人也会乖乖地起床。这种闹钟装有一组轮子,它能从桌子上“跑”下来,然后在屋子的其他地方再次响起来。每天,“Clocky”都能找到不同的“藏身之处”。这样,睡懒觉的人就没办法关闹铃了。
