Question

John is six years old. He can read and write well. But he can’t tell the time. He says ＂breakfast time＂,

＂lunchtime＂, and ＂teatime＂ when it is eight o’clock, twelve o’clock and four o’clock in the afternoon. His mother doesn’t know how to help him.

One day John’s aunt, Mary, comes to see his mother. His mother tells her about that. ＂Let me help you. I think I can help him.＂

When John gets home after school, Mary starts to teach him.

＂Can you count, John?＂ she asks him.

＂Yes. One, two, three, four…＂ John says. ＂That’s great. Now I put the long hand on twelve and the short hand on one — that is one o’clock. I put the short hand on two, what is the time?＂

＂Two o’clock.＂

＂Good. And on three?＂

＂Three o’clock.＂

It is then four o’clock in the afternoon, and John’s aunt asks him, ＂What time is it now, John?＂
