Usually it did not even show the correct hour! Since there was no planes or trains to catch, people were not 2 knowing the exact time.
Gradually, clocks began to be popular, but they did not keep correct time. They were 3 a cart with a horse and driver. One of the wheels was the face of the clock. Watches 4 as soon as clocks were made small enough to be carried. These did not always tell the correct time, either.

The most modern electric clocks for home use do not have faces or hands. These clocks are called digital clocks(數(shù)字顯示式電子鐘), and they tell the time with 9 which appear in a little window.
Many electric locks are combined with radios, which can sometimes be set to turn on automatically(自動). Thus, 10 an alarm ringing in your ear in the morning, you can hear soft music playing when it is time to get up. Some clocks will even start the coffee maker!
