Clck making is a traditinal craft which invlves the building and repair f clcks. But it is nw n the red list drawn up by the Heritage Crafts Assciatin(HCA), which has warned that mre specialists are retiring than entering the prfessin.
David Ple, a frmer master, said, “The shrtage f clck makers is a prblem. Whereas there used t be clck makers n the high street, a clck repair shp is a rare sight tday. Peple will find it extremely difficult t identify anyne t repair their clcks.”
There are nly abut 250 makers and repairers left acrss Britain, accrding t HCA’s research. When specialists are near retirement, they ften cannt affrd t take n apprentices(学徒)as happened in the past. Besides, it is feared that the few training curses that have survived will nt fill the gaps.
Hward Walwyn, a leading dealer in Kensingtn, warned that, if expertise in repairing is lst, clcks will becme inanimate bjects rather than living things, adding, “Mst clck makers have fiddled with(捣鼓)clcks as kids, taking them apart, and trying t get them t wrk. The prblem is that yung kids nw are spending all their time in frnt f screens and shw little interest in clck making. I've gt sme yunger clck makers, but they're few and far between.”
“There are als cncerns that t many clck makers are prepared t use mdern mechanical slutins t make a clck wrk, even if thse slutins are aesthetically(审美地)wrng,” said Jnathan Betts, an adviser t the Natinal Trust. He added, “Museum cllectins and mre sensitive private cllectrs wuld much rather nt have a clck cleaned s it lks brand new, but an awful lt f restrers reject that.” Mr. Ple, wh became a clck maker in the1990s,said,“There are few peple cming int the business. Mst peple wh are in it are edging twards retirement, as am I. If peple aren't skilled, all thse lvely things wn't be lked after prperly.”
12. What des the underlined phrase "n the red list"in paragraph 1 mean?
A. On tp f standard.B. In need f imprvement.
C. In respnse t demand.D. At risk f extinctin.
13. What belngs t a traditinal practice in the clck making field?
A. Its pairing each apprentice with a specialist.
B. Its tailring training prgrams fr apprentices.
C. Its bringing in new bld by emplying apprentices.
D. Its pstpning experienced specialists' retirement age.
14. What prevents yung kids frm being clck makers accrding t Hward Walwyn?
A. A relatively lw salary.B. The lack f interest in clck making.
C. The tugh emplyment envirnment.D. A limited number f training curses.
15. What is Jnathan Betts' cncern?
A. Many repairers adpt mdern methds in clck making.
B. Many restrers are incapable f fixing mechanical clcks.
C. Private cllectrs shw n interest in traditinal techniques.

Clck making is a traditinal craft which invlves the building and repair f clcks. But it is nw n the red list drawn up by the Heritage Crafts Assciatin(HCA), which has warned that mre specialists are retiring than entering the prfessin.
David Ple, a frmer master, said, “The shrtage f clck makers is a prblem. Whereas there used t be clck makers n the high street, a clck repair shp is a rare sight tday. Peple will find it extremely difficult t identify anyne t repair their clcks.”
There are nly abut 250 makers and repairers left acrss Britain, accrding t HCA’s research. When specialists are near retirement, they ften cannt affrd t take n apprentices(学徒)as happened in the past. Besides, it is feared that the few training curses that have survived will nt fill the gaps.
Hward Walwyn, a leading dealer in Kensingtn, warned that, if expertise in repairing is lst, clcks will becme inanimate bjects rather than living things, adding, “Mst clck makers have fiddled with(捣鼓)clcks as kids, taking them apart, and trying t get them t wrk. The prblem is that yung kids nw are spending all their time in frnt f screens and shw little interest in clck making. I've gt sme yunger clck makers, but they're few and far between.”
“There are als cncerns that t many clck makers are prepared t use mdern mechanical slutins t make a clck wrk, even if thse slutins are aesthetically(审美地)wrng,” said Jnathan Betts, an adviser t the Natinal Trust. He added, “Museum cllectins and mre sensitive private cllectrs wuld much rather nt have a clck cleaned s it lks brand new, but an awful lt f restrers reject that.” Mr. Ple, wh became a clck maker in the1990s,said,“There are few peple cming int the business. Mst peple wh are in it are edging twards retirement, as am I. If peple aren't skilled, all thse lvely things wn't be lked after prperly.”
