英语美文：The Value of Time

"Time"says the proverb, "is money" .This means that every moment well-spent may put some money into our pockets. 俗话说“时间就是金钱”。这就意味着，每分每秒只要善加利用，都会在我们的口袋里添一些钱。

If our time is usefully employed,it will either turn out some useful and important piece of work which will fetch its price in the market, or it will add to our experience and increase our capacities so as to enable us to earn money when the proper opportunity comes. There can thus be no doubt that time is convertible into money. 

如果我们的时间使用得当，就能生产出有用和重要的东西，在市场上卖得一定的价钱；或者它能丰富我们的经验，增长我们的才干，使我们在时机适当时能挣到钱。因此，毫无疑问时间可以转化为金钱。

Let those who think nothing of wasting time, remember this;let them remember that all hour misspent is equivalent to the loss of a bank-note;and that an hour utilized is tantamount to so much silver or gold ; and then they will probably think twice before they give their consent to the loss of any part of their time.让那些对浪费时间不以为然的人记住这一点。让他们记住，浪费一小时等于丢了一张钞票，而利用一小时就等于得到许多金银。这样，在他们同意浪费时间之前或许会三思而后行。
