As we know，museums are buildings where many valuable and important exhibits （展品） are kept so that people can go and see them．For example，art museums are places where people can learn about （1） v cultures．More and more popular "design museums" that are opening today，however，perform quite a different role．Unlike most art museums，the design museum shows exhibits that are easily found in our daily life ，such as fridges and washing （2） m ．

How do we know the time？ A clock，a watch or a cell phone can help us． However many years ago there were no clocks and knowing the time was not so easy． Over the centuries people have developed different w（1） of telling the time．
About 5，500years ago， the Egyptians i（2） the sun clock． This was a tall stone structure． Its shadow （影子）showed the movement of the s（3） they were able to determine（测定）midday．
About 3，500years ago，the Egyptians made a sundial． It was smaller than the sun clock and could measure （测量）the time for half a day． On c（4） days or at night it was impossible to tell the time with a sun clock or a sundial．
