When you walk along a street in a big city in the United States, you may see clocks in most stores. Radio announcers give the correct time during the day. People there think that it is important to know the time. Most Americans have watches. They want to do certain things at certain times. They do not want to be late.

Not all people all over the world value time. Suppose you visit a certain country in South America. You would find that people living there do not like to rush. If you had an appointment (约会)with someone, he would probably be late. He would not care for arriving on time. In some countries in South America, even the radio programs may not begin right on time, nor do the radio announcers think it important to announce the right time. Many people regard a clock as a machine. It seems to them that a person who does everything on time is controlled by a machine. They do not want a clock or any machine to have that much power over their lives.

4. There are clocks in most stores in the US cities because ______. A. people in the stores want to sell these clocks B. bosses want to make their stores beautiful C. people think it important to know the time

D. they needn't wear watches when they are away from home

5. The underlined word \ A. “run” B. “walk” C. “move” D. “hurry” 6. If you had an appointment with someone in some place in South America, he might not arrive on time, and this is because ______. A. he didn't have a watch with him

B. he forgot to have a look at a watch or a clock C. he didn't think it important to arrive on time D. he didn't like an appointment with someone 7. In some countries in South America ______.

A. the radio announcers do think it important to announce the exact time B. most people do not want to be controlled by others C. many people think a clock has much power

D. the radio programs may start a bit early or late.

TIME IS MONEY

A proverb(谚语)says：Time is money.But in my opinion，time is even more valuable than money.Why？Because when money is spent，we can earn it back.However，when time is gone，it will never return. This is the reason why we must value time.

There is no doubt that the time we have is unusually limited.So even an hour is extremely precious. We should make full use of our time to do useful things.As students，we must not relax our efforts to engage(从事于)in our studies so as to serve our society and our nation in the future.

But it is a pity that there are a lot of people who do not know the importance of time.They spend their valuable time smoking，drinking and so on.They do not realize that wasting time is equal to wasting a part of their valuable life.

In a word，we should get into a good habit of saving time.Do not put off what can be done today until tomorrow.Laziness will not only bring us failure but also lead us to the road of poverty.

8．When we say “Time is money.”，we mean“________”． A．Time is equal to dollars，pounds etc. B．Time is gold C．Time is valuable

D．We must spend time in buying goods

9．People who spend time smoking，drinking ______. A．do not know how to kill time as clearly as others

B．doubt that they will become more dangerous to society C．realize how important their lives are

D．waste their whole lives without realizing the importance of time

10．According to this passage，the writer considers that ________. A．money can be spent but time can not B．time is not equal to money C．time is twice as valuable as money D．money is not more valuable than time 11．Being students，we must ______. A．work hard at our subjects B．do whatever we want to do

C．not always engage ourselves in our lessons

D．have a rest now，then we can get relaxed from our busy studies D

Thomas Alva Edison was awarded more patents (专利)on inventions than any other American.When he died in 1931，Americans wondered how they could best show their respect for him.One suggestion was that the nation observe a minute or two of total blackout（灯火熄灭）.All electric power would be shut off in homes，streets，and factories. Perhaps this suggested plan made Americans realize fully what Edison and his inventions mean to them. Electric power was too important to the country. Shutting it off for even a short time would have led to complete confusion.A blackout was out of the question.

On the day of Edison’s funeral，many people silently dimmed their lights.In this way they honored the man who had done more than anyone else to put the great force of electricity at his countrymen’s fingertips.

12．This selection says that Thomas Edison ________. A．was the only important American inventor B．received the first American patent
