5．Why do people feel so rushed？Part of this is a perception （认知） problem．Generally，people in rich countries have more free time than they used to．This is particularly true in Europe，but even in America free time has been inching up．Women's paid work has risen a lot over this period，but their time in unpaid work，like cooking and cleaning，has fallen even more significantly，thanks in part to dishwashers，washing machines and microwaves，and also to the fact that men shift themselves a little more around the house than they used to．
The problem，then，is less how much time people have than how they see it．Ever since a clock was first used at a workplace to record labor hours in the 18th century，time has been understood in relation to money．Once hours are financially quantified （量化），people worry more about wasting，but tend to save or use them more profitably．When economies grow and incomes rise，everyone's time becomes more valuable．And the more valuable something becomes，the rarer it seems．
Once seeing their time in terms of money，people often grow stingy with the former to maximize the latter．Workers who are paid by the hour volunteer less of their time and tend to feel more upset when they are not working．
The relationship between time，money and anxiety is something Gary Becker noticed in America's post-war boom years．"If anything，time is used more carefully today than a century ago，"he noted in 1965．He found that when people are paid more to work，they tend to work longer hours，because working becomes a more profitable use of time．So the rising value of work time puts pressure on all time．Leisure time starts to seem more stressful，as people are forced to use it wisely or not at all．

D．more work hours bring in more money

12．You've heard it said，"Hurry up and wait!"But learning to wait calmly is an important part of living．In this age of high-speed connections，it helps to remember that the Mayflower made its historic voyage across he Atlantic Ocean at about two miles per hour!How did those early settlers occupy their time as they were waiting to arrive？
I love the story of a passenger on Britain's Imperial Airways，a company that pioneered air travel between England and Australia in the mid-1930s．"If you have time to spare，go by air．"It was the popular expression of the day．Besides，planes were incapable of flying long distances．
One of the very first flights took off from Croydon Airport near London and flew to northern France where it was delayed extensively due to bad weather．When it arrived in the south of France，one of the motors failed and it was necessary to wait for another engine to be shipped by sea from England．There were further long delays along the route in Rome，Cairo，the Middle East，etc，until finally the flight progressed as far as Singapore．
At this point a lady passenger asked the manager in Singapore if he thought the flight would arrive in Australia in the next few weeks because she was expecting a baby shortly．
"My dear lady，"he replied，"you should never have started your trip in that condition．"
She replied，"I didn't．"
Next time you miss a flight，think about her situation and"hurry up and be patient"!The sooner you're patient，the easier you life will become．When you're patient，you can relax and enjoy the ride．
There is great benefit in learning to wait calmly and creatively．We should welcome unexpected delays as a gift of time，which can be used creatively．We can have work or entertainment handy when forced to wait，making the most of your waiting time．
We will never escape delays，but we can use them creatively．Now is the time to hurry up and be patient!
