1. Time
1) Americans have a saying ―Time is money‖. How do you understand it?
Time is a precious resource. Time can bring profits. If we make good use of time and work efficiently, we may expect good results and big profits. On the contrary, if we work with tardiness, we’ll waste our precious time and gain less than we should gain. There fore, time is really money and saving time is just like saving money. As individuals, we should treasure our limited time and let every minute count.
