Good morning, everyone.My topic(论题,话题)for today is "How Americans Value(重视)Time”.
Americans think a lot about time.From childhood(童年)they learn to value time.As children, parents teach them to be on time to go to school, to do work and to do everything.When they are having a good time, they say that time flies.When a person is dying(死亡), they say he is living on(靠……生活)borrowed time.
Time is money.Time is knowledge.Time is everything in America.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 money.Even Saturday and Sunday are filled with(用……装满)other things.In the street you can hardly see a man who walks slowly.They walk very fast.In fact, they are running.
When you ask Americans why they are in a hurry(匆忙)all the time, they will probably say, "Time is money."
1.When do Americans start to value time?
2.What do American parents tell their children to do when they go to school?
3.What do Americans do when they are happy?

5."Time is money."is a proverb(谚语,格言).Please write out four proverbs:one is from this article; the other three mustn't be included(包含,包括)in this test paper(考试卷).
Do you enjoy travelling to other countries? There is a saying that goes,
“When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”If you plan to travel to Japan, it may be helpful to know something about eating out and gifts before you go.
When eating out, before you eat a meal, you should be given a basket with a hot towel in it. Use this towel to clean your hands and then put it back in the basket. Be sure to wait until the older people at your table pick up their chopsticks before you begin eating.
You will find gifts are important. Do remember not to give anything of four--the word
“four”is similar to the word of “death”. All gifts, even money, should be wrapped(包裹), but your host will not probably open the gifts in front of you. This will show the host thinks the giving of gifts is more important than the real gifts. Use both your hands when you give or receive a gift.(1)If you want to have a good journey in the country you visit, you'd better ________.
