night And on the Internet the hour of the day and the day of the week have become irrelevant 无关的 A half century ago in the United States most people experienced strong and precise dividing lines between days of rest and days of work school time and summer time Today the boundaries still exist but they seem not clear The law in almost all states used to require stores to close on Sunday in most it no longer does It used to keep the schools open in all seasons except summer in most it still does And whether the work week should strengthen its legal limits or whether it should become more flexible is often debated How should we as a society organize our time Should we go even further in relaxing the boundaries of time until we live in a world in which every minute is much like every other These are not easy questions even to ask Part of the difficulty is that we rarely recognize the law of time even when we meet it face to face We know as children that we have to attend school a certain number of hours days and years but unless we meet the truant officer 学监 we may well think that we should go to school due to social custom and parents demand rather than to the law As adults

saving time have we ever thought to ourselves Here is the law in action As we shall see there is a lot of law that has great influence on how to organize and use time compulsory education law overtime

need to acquire knowledge B have to obey their parents C need to find companions D have to observe the law 4 What is the main idea of the passage A Our life is governed by the law of time B How to organize time is not worth debating C New ways of using time change our society D Our time schedule is decided by social customs 3 8 分 阅读理解 What can we learn from the special very successful people in
