Different people think differently about time.
American people usually think it is important to know the time. In cities of the USA, clocks can be seen in stations, schools and other buildings. Radio announcers(播音员) tell you the correct time during the day. Most Americans also have watches with them wherever they go. They do certain things at certain things at certain time. They don’t like to be late.
But time is not so important to people in other countries. When you visit a country in South America, you will find that people don’t like to hurry. If you have an appointment with somebody, he is likely to be late, because he may not want to arrive on time.
In South America, even the radio programs may not begin on time. People on the radio do not think it is so important to give the exact time. They think that clocks or watches are just machines and if you do everything on time you just let a clock or a watch control your life.

Passage E
It is not important how much a person sleeps, but everyone needs some rest to live. All doctors thought that way until they heard about Herbert, an old man of 90. It was said
7
that Herbert never slept. How could this be true? The doctors decide to see this strange man themselves.
