Write a composition on the answer sheet in about 150 words, basing yourself on one of the texts you have learned.
TOPIC：From the text "Go-Go Americans", what do you learn about Americans' attitude towards time and how does this attitude influence their life? You can use this outline:
·Point out Americans' attitude towards time;
·Give some examples to support this view;
·Make a brief comment on this view.
【正确答案】：
     AMERICANS BELIEVE THAT TIME IS PRECIOUS AND SHOULD BE SAVED CAREFULLY. THEY VALUE TIME HIGHLY AND DO WHAT THEY CAN TO SAVE TIME. THIS ATTITUDE TOWARDS TIME HAS AFFECTED THEIR LIFE GREATLY. FOR EXAMPLE, DRIVERS ARE HURRYING IN THE STREET AND PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS IN A RUSH. TIME IS DIVIDED INTO MANY SEGMENTS AND THEY STRICTLY FOLLOW THEIR SCHEDULES. IN ORDER TO SAVE TIME, AMERICANS HAVE INVENTED A LOT OF TIME-SAVING DEVICES, SUCH AS TELEX AND TELEPHONE. THEY USE TELEPHONE TO CONDUCT BUSINESS, CHAT WITH FRIENDS AND OBTAIN INFORMATION BECAUSE IT IS QUICK. BUSINESSMEN DON'T TAKE THEIR PARTNERS OUT FOR DINNER OR HAVE LEISURELY CHATS. THEY THINK IT IS A WASTE OF TIME BECAUSE THE FULFILLMENT OF A JOB IS NOT DETERMINED BY THE PASSAGE OF TIME BUT BY ONE'S COMPETENCE. RAPIDITY IS ALWAYS CONSIDERED A PRIORITY. THIS VIEW OF TIME RESULTS IN A NATION OF PEOPLE WITH EFFICIENCY. 
【题目解析】：
建议从美国人的时间观念入手，结合事实分析，进行相应的评价。
美国人认为时间是宝贵的，应该谨慎地节约。他们非常珍惜时间并且会尽可能地节省时间。这种对时间的态度极大地影响了他们的生活。例如，司机在街上很匆忙，人们总是处于繁忙之中。美国人将时间分成许多部分，他们会严格遵守自己的时间表。为了节省时间，美国人发明了许多节省时间的设备，如电传机和电话。他们用电话处理业务，与朋友聊天以及获取信息，因为它是快捷的。商人不会带他们的伙伴出去吃饭或悠闲地聊天。他们认为这是浪费时间，因为工作的完成不是由时间的推移决定的，而是由一个人的能力决定的。对于美国人来说，速度总是他们优先考虑的因素。这种时间观念造就了这一高效率的民族。
