四、閱讀理解

   Americans think much about time. From childhood (童年) ，they learn to value (珍視) time. As children,they should be on time to go to school,to work and to do everything. When they are having a good time,they say that time goes easily. When a person is dying (垂死) ，he says he is living on borrowed time.

       Time is money. Time is knowledge (知識(shí)). Time is everything in America. A working American has to work hard for eight hours a day or forty hours a week. This is the working time. In his free time,he also works hard for more money. Even (甚至) on Saturday and Sunday he also works hard as usual. In the street you can hardly (幾乎不) see a man walking slowly. They walk very fast.
