People make good use of time in America. Americans think much about time, and from childhood they
learn to value time.As children, they are taught to be on time to go to school,to walk and to do everything. When they are having a good time, they say that time goes easily. When a person is dying, they say he is
living on a borrowed time.
Time is money. Time is knowledge. Time is everything in America. A working American has to work
hard for eight hours a day or forty hours a week,and this is the working time.In his free time,he also works hard for more money. Even on Saturday and Sunday he also works as usual. In the street you can hardly
see a man walking slowly. They walk very fast. In fact, they are running.
They love time because time can bring them money and lots of things. But sometimes they also hate
time, because they feel they have become servants of the clock.

| Dear Leis, I read in my magazine that you are looking for a pen pal, so I'm writing to say hello. My name's Alice Nichols and I'm 16. I live in Hania in Greece, but my family comes from England. Hania is a beautiful old town near the island of Crete. In summer the town is full of tourists. I'm a student at a private school. I've been at the same school for five years now, so I know it very well. Most of the time I like going to school, but there are some things I can't stand doing-like PE. I enjoy playing sports, but I don't like doing exercises! My favorite subjects are geography and English. I often go to the beach in my free time. I love just sitting around and talking to friends. I'm getting better at understanding boys, but I hate listening to hours of talk about football. It's just so boring! What's life like in your town? I'd love to hear all about your family and friends. Have you got an e-mail address? It's easier to keep in touch that way. I am looking forward to hearing from you! Best wishes! Alice |
