I hear the word' "time" every morning.  "It's time to get up,Tom!"my wife
said to my little son. Someone says, "Time is money."But I think time is even
more important than money. Why? Because when we have no money, we can get
it back.  However, when time is lost, it'll never return. That's why we mustn't
waste(浪費(fèi))time.
　　The saying goes," How time flies!" We always don't have enough time.
Even a second is very important. We should make good use of our time to do
something useful.  But a lot of people do not know that. They spent their time
smoking, drinking and playing.
　　In a word, we should save time. We shouldn't leave today's work for
tomorrow. Remember we have no time to waste. Do you think so? My friends,
how are you going to spend your time?
