Time is treated by Americans——as if it were something almost tangible.
A、Americans try various means to hold time tightly in their hands.
B、Americans are serious about time and they manage their time well.
C、To Americans， time is as valuable as money, which they can see and touch.
D、To Americans, time is like something solid, which they can seize and control.
【正确答案】：D
【题目解析】：原句意为：人们对待时间简直就像它是看得见，摸得着的东西一样。因此C项中将时间看作“如金钱般珍贵”不合题意；A项意为“美国人用各种方法将时间掌控在他们手中”;B项意为“美国人对待时间很认真，并且他们很好地利用时间"；D项意为“对于美国人来说，时间像某种坚固的东西，他们可以占有并控制”，符合原文意义。答案为D。P74
