【解析】
本文介绍的是美国人的时间观念,从小他们就被教育要按时上学,按时上班等。他们爱时间因为时间能带给他们金钱和许多东西,他们觉得时间非常重要,时间就是金钱,就是一切,因此他们的生活节奏非常快。
【1】句意:从小他们就学会珍惜时间
根据空前“learn to”,可知是学习做某事learn to do sth;结合所给单词,value time珍惜时间符合句意和语境。故填value。
【2】句意:他们被教育要按时上学,上班和按时做所有的事情。
根据空前“are”可知后面要用doing或done,结合句意,可知应该用teach,并且用被动语态be taught to do sth被教育做某事。“be taught to be on time被教育要守时”符合语境。故填taught。
【3】句意:当他们玩得开心时,他们说时间易逝。
根据空前goes,可知此处要用副词修饰,结合句意“When they are having a good time”及他们珍惜时间,可知这儿是“时间易逝”。故填easily。
【4】句意:人将死之时他们会觉得每多活一天都是恩赐。
根据“they say he is living on a borrowed time. 他们说每多活一天都是恩赐”,及空前的“is”可知,这儿用die的doing形式dying,“When a person is dying人将死之时”符合句意与语境。故填dying。
【5】句意:时间就是金钱。时间就是知识。在美国时间就是一切。
根据空前句“Time is money.”及常识,“时间就是知识”符合句意和语境。故填knowledge。
【6】句意:一个工作的美国人每天必须努力工作八小时或每周四十小时。
根据空后“work hard for eight hours a day or forty hours a week每天努力工作八小时或每周四十小时”可知是“工人”的工作情况,结合所提供单词work为动词,所以要变为名词worker。故填worker。
【7】句意:在他的空闲时间,他为赚更多的钱努力工作。
根据空前“works hard”与空后“more money”之间存在因果关系,可知此处应是“for为了”,“他为赚更多的钱努力工作。”符合语境。故填for。
【8】句意:在街上你几乎看不到一个人走得很慢。
根据空后“They walk very fast.他们走得很快”,可知前面是没有人走得慢,结合所提供单词,用“几乎看不见”一个人走得很慢。故填hardly。
【9】句意:他们喜欢时间,因为时间能给他们带来金钱和很多东西。
根据句意,可知这儿是bring sb sth;sb为宾格形式,结合所给单词they为主格,需变为宾格them。故填them。
【10】句意:但有时他们也讨厌时间,因为他们觉得自己成了时钟的仆人。
前文讲美国人热爱时间,根据空前“but”,可知下面是转折,结合所提供单词,应该是“讨厌”时间。故填hate。
