A WONDERFUL INVENTION
0
Most
of people do not like getting up early, and some people
00
find
it impossible to wake up on time. For these people the
1
alarm
clock is a wonderful invention. But there are another
2
people
who have become so used to hearing the regular ringing
3
sounds
of their alarm clock that they continue to sleep
4
straight
through the noise. I am used to be one of those
5
people.
When I was going to the school I kept two alarm clocks
6
beside
my bed, but still my mother had to shake me hardly
7
before
I had woke up. Now I live by myself. I used to be
8
employed
by an advertising agency, but despite of help from
9
several
loud alarm clocks I was late for a work four times in
10
one
week and I was fired. Next week I will be start a new job.
11
Am
I bound to lose this one, too? There should have be no problem
12
thanks
to my new silent alarm clock.
Instead of ringing, this
13
clock
can shakes. I put it under my pillow and at the set time
14
it
vibrates. It makes my head to move and I wake up at once.
15
I
just
wish such a useful gadget had been thought of years ago!!
