"Early to bed, early to rise," so goes an old saying. But how many of us are in the habit of doing that?
Not many, I bet. Most of us need an alarm clock to wake us up. But even that doesn't always work. It's too
easy to punch the off button and fall asleep again.


The Lazybones Alarm Clock may be the solution to our problem. It's specially designed so that it cannot
be switched off with a simple push of a button. The clock has several "protective shells." You must open
these shells one by one before you can turn off the alarm. If you don't,it'll keep on saying,"Good morning...
good morning..." So if any of you lazybones need a morning call that really gets you out of bed, this clock
might be just the thing for you.

Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
"Honesty is the best policy." so goes an old saying.
night owl 夜猫子,猫头鹰 nocturnal 夜的
I am in the habit of skipping breakfast.

They came into the room one by one.
tweaked v.拧
