【解析】

本文介紹的是美國人的時間觀念,從小他們就被教育要按時上學(xué),按時上班等。他們愛時間因為時間能帶給他們金錢和許多東西,他們覺得時間非常重要,時間就是金錢,就是一切,因此他們的生活節(jié)奏非?。

1句意:從小他們就學(xué)會珍惜時間

根據(jù)空前“learn to”,可知是學(xué)習(xí)做某事learn to do sth;結(jié)合所給單詞,value time珍惜時間符合句意和語境。故填value。

2句意:他們被教育要按時上學(xué),上班和按時做所有的事情。

根據(jù)空前“are”可知后面要用doingdone,結(jié)合句意,可知應(yīng)該用teach,并且用被動語態(tài)be taught to do sth被教育做某事!be taught to be on time被教育要守時”符合語境。故填taught。

3句意:當(dāng)他們玩得開心時,他們說時間易逝。

根據(jù)空前goes,可知此處要用副詞修飾,結(jié)合句意“When they are having a good time”及他們珍惜時間,可知這兒是“時間易逝”。故填easily。

4句意:人將死之時他們會覺得每多活一天都是恩賜。

根據(jù)“they say he is living on a borrowed time. 他們說每多活一天都是恩賜”,及空前的“is”可知,這兒用diedoing形式dying,“When a person is dying人將死之時”符合句意與語境。故填dying。

5句意:時間就是金錢。時間就是知識。在美國時間就是一切。

根據(jù)空前句“Time is money.”及常識,“時間就是知識”符合句意和語境。故填knowledge。

6句意:一個工作的美國人每天必須努力工作八小時或每周四十小時。

根據(jù)空后“work hard for eight hours a day or forty hours a week每天努力工作八小時或每周四十小時”可知是“工人”的工作情況,結(jié)合所提供單詞work為動詞,所以要變?yōu)槊~worker。故填worker

7句意:在他的空閑時間,他為賺更多的錢努力工作。

根據(jù)空前“works hard”與空后“more money”之間存在因果關(guān)系,可知此處應(yīng)是“for為了”,“他為賺更多的錢努力工作!狈险Z境。故填for。

8句意:在街上你幾乎看不到一個人走得很慢。

根據(jù)空后“They walk very fast.他們走得很快”,可知前面是沒有人走得慢,結(jié)合所提供單詞,用“幾乎看不見”一個人走得很慢。故填hardly

9句意:他們喜歡時間,因為時間能給他們帶來金錢和很多東西。

根據(jù)句意,可知這兒是bring sb sth;sb為賓格形式,結(jié)合所給單詞they為主格,需變?yōu)橘e格them。故填them

10句意:但有時他們也討厭時間,因為他們覺得自己成了時鐘的仆人。

前文講美國人熱愛時間,根據(jù)空前“but”,可知下面是轉(zhuǎn)折,結(jié)合所提供單詞,應(yīng)該是“討厭”時間。故填hate。
