请将范文改写成一篇80词左右的短文。
【审题谋篇】
第一段：Intrductin 段介绍话题。首先，提供一些背景知识，告诉读者为什么这个话题是重要的。在介绍的时候，一定要“引起读者兴趣”，然后在Intrductin的结尾，一定要有一个清楚的Thesis statement。如果文章缺少这一项，那么它将会被归为“文章没有重点”。Thesis statement应该清楚地定义所讨论的话题、立场等。文章应该紧紧地围绕着Thesis statement来书写。
第二段：Bdy段应该“又有骨头又有肉”。“骨头和肉”代表“evidence and infrmatin”。Bdy段的每个点应该包含一个evidence或者infrmatin。这样的文章会显得逻辑清晰，读者也非常容易从一个点转移到下一个点。
第三段：Cnclusin段应该首先重新提及一下文章主题的重要性。可以迅速地浏览一下文章中的证据和信息来进行总结。但是不能再添加新的信息。

教材原文
Masters f time
In the quiet curtyards f Xi San Su, behind the high walls f the Frbidden City， time ticks at its wn pace. If it hadn’t been fr a three-episde dcumentary， utsiders wuld never have knwn that the plainly-dressed peple wrking here are masters f their craft, wh have spent their lives restring precius antiques. Amng these is the clck restratin master, Wang Jin.
Walking thrugh the seven crimsn gates twards his wrkplace, Wang Jin still regards himself as an rdinary wrker in the Palace Museum, althugh nw he is ften stpped by admirers wanting their pht taken with him. Day in, day ut,Mr Wang and his students spend their time restring clcks dating back hundreds f years. But fr quite sme time, he and his student Qi Hanan used t be the nly tw peple repairing timepieces in the Palace Museum.
Qing emperrs were very fnd f clcks. Therefre, in rder t please them, freign envys presented these emperrs with the mst intricate and splendid timepieces. Tday, the Palace Museum has ne f the mst significant cllectins f timepieces in the wrld, mainly riginating frm Eurpe and China. With bjects ranging frm small pcket watches t clcks ver ne metre in height, each f these requires its wn unique methd f restratin. Given the cmplexity f the wrk and the lack f necessary materials, this means that each expert can wrk n a maximum f tw large pieces a year. But, thrugh their painstaking effrts, Mr Wang and his students d mre than repair the clcks-they bring them back t life.
The nly sund t break the silence in Wang Jin’s wrkshp is the chiming meldy f the repaired and plished clcks. T Wang Jin it is the mst beautiful music in the wrld. Nw， after eight mnths f endless adjustments, the time has finally cme fr Mr Wang t wind up the gigantic clcks that date back t the time f Emperr Qianlng. The intricately fashined bjects that have std still fr centuries instantly cme back t life: water flws, bats sail, dgs bark， chickens flap their wings and a wman starts t spin. It is a truly awe-inspiring mment. It is suddenly clear that when the clck masters say that “these antiques have lives”, it is neither an exaggeratin nr a metaphr.
But,despite the cmbined wrk f several generatins f masters, it seems unlikely that the restratin f the clcks will ever be cmplete. Even if every clck in the Palace Museum were restred, there wuld still be wrk t d, because restratin wuld prbably need t begin again n the clcks that were repaired lng ag. This is a race against time that can never be wn! Nnetheless, Mr Wang remains ptimistic abut the future f these timepieces. Fllwing in the ftsteps f his wn teacher all thse years ag, Mr Wang has nw passed n his skills t the new members, wh will take n many f the future repairs. What’s mre, inspired t fllw in his father’s ftsteps, Mr Wang’s sn nw has als taken up repairing antique clcks. This new generatin f artisans will nt nly help preserve traditinal skills; the innvatin they bring t the craft will als ensure that the art f clck repairing stands the test f time.
In tday’s fast-paced wrld, the saying that “time waits fr n man” has never seemed mre apt. Yet inside the hidden curtyards f Xi San Su, there is smething timeless abut the way Mr Wang and his clleagues sedately piece tgether the past with skilful hands and mdest hearts. It is as if they have becme ne with their craft and with the histry f the cuntry.
教材译文
时间的主人
在紫禁城高墙后面的西三所安静的庭院里，时间按着自己的节奏流逝着。要不是一部三集的纪录片，外面的人永远也不会知道在这里工作的那些衣着朴素的人竟然都是精于各门技艺的大师，他们毕生都在修复珍贵的古董。这些人中就有钟表修复专家王津。
王津穿过七重深红色的大门，走向自己的工作地点。尽管现在他经常被想和他合影的粉丝拦住，他仍然认为自己是故宫博物院的一名普通工人。日复一日，王先生和他的学生们把时间花在修复数百年前的钟表上。但在过去相当长的一段时间里，故宫博物院修理钟表的工匠只有他和他的学生亓昊楠。
清朝的皇帝们十分喜欢钟表。因此，外国使节们把最精致、最华丽的钟表送给这些皇帝来取悦他们。如今，故宫博物院拥有一部分世界上最重要的钟表藏品，这些钟表主要来自欧洲和中国。小到怀表，大到超过一米高的钟表，每一件都有其独特的修复方法。考虑到工作的复杂性和必要材料的缺乏，这意味着每位专家一年最多只能修复两件大型钟表。但是，王先生和他的学生们通过艰苦的努力不只是修复了钟表——他们还让钟表恢复了生命。
在王津的工作坊里，唯一能打破寂静的声音是在修理、抛光钟表时发出的报时的旋律。对王津来说，这是世界上最美的音乐。经过八个月无休止的调整，王先生现在终于进行到了给追溯到乾隆皇帝时代的巨型钟表上弦的时候。那些已经静止了几个世纪的造型复杂的摆件瞬间复活了: 水流动着，船航行着，狗吠叫着，鸡拍动着翅膀，一个女人开始纺线。这真是一个令人惊叹的时刻。人们突然明白，当钟表专家们说“这些古董有生命”时，这既不是夸张，也不是比喻。
但是，尽管经过了几代大师的共同努力，钟表的修复似乎永远不可能完成。即使故宫博物院的每一件钟表都被修复了，仍然有工作要做，因为可能需要重新开始对很久以前修复的钟表进行修复。这是一场与时间的赛跑，却永远不可能赢！尽管如此，王先生对这些钟表的未来仍持乐观态度。多年前，王先生继承了师父的事业，而现在他将自己的技艺传授给了将承担未来许多修复工作的新成员。更重要的是，在继承父业这一壮志的激励下，王先生的儿子现在也开始修复古董钟表。新一代的工匠们不仅将协助保留传统技艺，他们给技艺带来的创新也将确保钟表修复的艺术能够经得起时间的考验。
在当今快节奏的世界里，“时间不等人”的说法似乎再贴切不过了。然而，在西三所的隐秘庭院里，王先生和他的同事们用灵巧的双手和谦逊的心沉着地拼凑着过去，带来了永恒，好像他们已经与自己的技艺和这个国家的历史融为了一体。
