　　Nowadays, we can know time very easily．Even a little child may know the time．We always ask “What time is it?” Then people can tell me the exact time．But before the invention of clocks, it was very difficult．One way people told the time was by using sundials, but it was impossible to tell the time on cloudy days or at night．
