昨天考完专四后大家回宿舍讨论得很热烈，很多题虽然词汇量不大，但都考察的是词与词之间的细微差别。大家的答案都不太一样，就dictation的意见最一致。下面是我们几个人拼凑在一起的原文，可能有出入，请大家多提批评意见。 The Wrist Watch It is generally believed that wrist watches are an exception to the normal sequence in the evolution of man's jewelry. Reversing the usual order, they were first worn by women, and then adopted by men. In the old days, queens included wrist watches among their crown jewelry. Later, they were worn by Swiss workers and farmers. Until the World War I, Americans associated the watch with fortune hunters. Then army officers discovered that the wrist watch was most practical for active combat. Race car drivers also loved to wear wrist watches, and pilots found them most useful while flying. Soon men dared to wear wrist watches without feeling self-conscious. By 1924, some 30 percent of man'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 purposes rather than for decoration. 点击此处进入论坛相关帖子参与讨论！
