The Value of Time Nobody knows what time is like, for we cannot see it, nor can we touch it. Tim　　The Value of Time　　Nobody knows what time is like, for we cannot see it, nor can we touch it. Time is abstract, which we can only imagine in our mind.　　But we do know that time passes very quickly. Some students, however, do not know the value of time, nor do they know how to make the best use of it, for they waste it in going to films, playing games and doing other useless things. Why do we go to school early in the morning? Why do trains run so fast? Why do most people prefer taking buses instead of walking? The answer is very simple: we wish to save time because time is precious.　　Today we are living in the twentieth century. We know that time is life. When a person dies, his time has ended. Since life is short, we must devote our time and energy to our studies so that we may be able to serve our country and the people. But since time is invisible, we often neglect it. Lazinss. is the thief of time, for lasiness not only brings us a lot of harm, it also brings us failure. If it is necessary for us to do some work today, let us do it today and not leave it until tomorrow. Remember that time is more valuable than money.　　作者強(qiáng)調(diào)了時(shí)間的珍貴性，并勸告每個(gè)人應(yīng)盡可能多地利用時(shí)間多做些事情，不要養(yǎng)成懶惰的習(xí)慣。論點(diǎn)雖然有些道理，但不夠全面，將看電影等娛樂放松活動當(dāng)做無用的浪費(fèi)時(shí)間之事，似乎有些偏激。　　時(shí)間的價(jià)值　　誰也不知道時(shí)間是什么樣子，因?yàn)槲覀兗瓤床灰娝裁恢r(shí)間是抽象的東西，我們只能憑腦子去想像它。　　但是我們的確知道時(shí)間流逝得很快。然而，有些學(xué)生卻不知道時(shí)間的價(jià)值，也不知道如何充分利用時(shí)間，他們把時(shí)間浪費(fèi)在看電影、玩游戲和其他一些無聊的事情上。我們?yōu)槭裁匆淮笤缫ド蠈W(xué)呢?火車為什么跑得那么快?為什么大多數(shù)人愿乘汽車而不愿步行辦事呢?答案非常簡單：我們想節(jié)約時(shí)間，因?yàn)闀r(shí)間非常寶貴。　　如今我們生活在20世紀(jì)，我們知道時(shí)間就是生命。當(dāng)一個(gè)人去世的時(shí)候，他所有的時(shí)間便用完了。既然生命短暫，我們必須把時(shí)間和精力用于學(xué)習(xí)，以便為祖國和人民服務(wù)；但由于時(shí)間是看不見的，我們經(jīng)常忽視它。懶惰是時(shí)間的盜賊，它不但給我們帶來許多危害，也會使我們失敗。如果今天我們有什么要做的工作，讓我們就把它做完，不要拖到明天。記住時(shí)間比金錢更寶貴。
