We are warned by our teachers not to waste time because time 41 will never return. I think it quite 42 . What does time look 43 ? Nobody knows, and we can’t see it or touch it and no 44 of money can buy it. Time is abstract, so we have to 45 about it.
Time passes very quickly. Some students say they don’t have 46 time to review their lessons. It is 47 they don’t know how to make use of their time. They waste it in going to theatres or playing, and 48 other useless things. Why do we study every day? Why do we work? Why do most people 49 take buses instead of walking? The answer is very 50 . We wish to save time because time is 51 .
Today we are living in the 21. century We 52 time as life. When a person dies, his life ends. Since life is short, we must 53 our time and energy to our study so that we 54 be able to work and live well in the future. Laziness is the 55 of time, for it not only bring us 56 , but also does other 57 to us. If it is necessary for us to do our work today, 58 we do it today and not 59 it until tomorrow. Remember that time is much more 60 .
