We produce a steady flow of labor-saving devices; we communicate rapidly through faxes, phone calls or emails rather than through personal contacts, which though pleasant, take longer— especially given our traffic-filled streets. We, therefore, save most personal visiting for after-work hours or for social weekend gatherings. (Para. 5) We work hard at the task of saving time.

  26. Example Main Idea 1. Approaching the theme “We are slaves to nothing but the clock,” it has been said. Time is treated as if it were something almost real. We budget it, save it, waste it, steal it, kill it, cut it, account for it; we also charge for it. It is a precious resource. Many people have a rather acute sense of the shortness of each lifetime. Once the sands have run out of a person’s hourglass, they cannot be replaced. We want every minute to count. (Para. 2) “We are slaves to nothing but the clock,” it has been said. Time is treated as if it were something almost real. We budget it, save it, waste it, steal it, kill it, cut it, account for it; we also charge for it. It is a precious resource. Many people have a rather acute sense of the shortness of each lifetime. Once the sands have run out of a person’s hourglass, they cannot be replaced. We want every minute to count. (Para. 2) It (= Time) is a precious resource.

This attitude results in a nation of people committed to researching, experimenting and exploring. Time is one of the two elements that Americans save carefully, the other being labor.

Where could • he hide them? If they had made the escape • themselves, then where could they stay at the • moment? （translated by Zhu Chunshen） 燕子去了，有再来的时候； 杨柳枯了，有再青的时候； 桃花谢了，有再开的时候。 但是，聪明的，你告诉我， 我们的日子为什么一去不复返呢？ ——是有人偷了他们罢：那是谁？ 又藏在何处呢？是他们自己逃走了：现在又到了哪 里呢？ （朱自清《匆匆》）

  34. 3. Reflecting on the ideas of time A leisure lifestyle is of course far cheaper than a luxurious one. To enjoy life of leisure, one would only need to have the sensibility of an artist. To while away a whole afternoon in a fully relaxed state, doing absolutely nothing. Now, that's an art. By Lin Yutang “The Importance of Living” 享受悠闲生活当然比享受奢侈生活便宜得多。要享受悠闲的生活只要一种艺术家的性情,在一种全然悠闲的情绪中，去消遣一个闲暇无事的下午。 （林语堂 《生活的艺术》）
