     Good morning, everybody. My topic for today is "How Americans Value Time".

     Americans from childhood think a great deal about time and they learn to value time very much. As

children, they are taught.that time is everything.

     Time is money. A working American has to work hard for 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week. This is the

working time. In his spare time, he also works hard for more money. Even Saturday and Sunday are filled with

activities. In the street you can hardly see a man who walks slowly. They walk very fast. In fact, they are

running.

     Time is knowledge. No matter whether they go to work or go back home, they will take advantage of every minute to read on the buses, trains and ships.

     Time is friendship. When an American is invited to dinner, he won't be late or get there too early. Otherwise, his arrival will make the others unhappy.

     Seeing from above, we should learn from Americans to value every minute very much.
