解析:Hello, ladies and gentlemen, I feel honored to introduce our speaker for today's lecture, Dr.Bill Newton.Dr.Newton, Professor of Sociology at Princeton University, (16) has written numerous articles and books on the issue of how to use time, as we all know, a popular topic because it will determine effectiveness.Welcome, Dr.Newton.
Dr.Newton:
Hello, everyone.Today, our lecture is about time.You may think that it is an old and common topic.Maybe it is, to some aspect.However, the importance of it is worth a long time listening and discussing.
Right? OK, first, you are given some time to think about these questions: What is time? How important do you think time is to you? How much do you cherish your time and make use of it? All right, maybe you have gotanswers in your heart.
Anybody Who has ever thought about the issues of life and death? They say Life and Death are not inanyone's hands.They are things that just happen every time and with everyone.Same is the case with time.(17) Most of the times we take it for granted that there is always plenty of time.Due to this perhaps weindulge in various activities, which are a Wholesale waste of time.
The clock is always ticking.The seconds keep on ticking just like busy ants.The ants keep them selvesal ways busy by always hunting for food everywhere.Similarly the seconds always keep on ticking to attain short-term goals of making a minute with 60 ticks.After reaching a milestone of a minute, the second hand of a clock doesn't take a break, but starts afresh for another round of 60 ticks.They take it minute by minute and inadvertently reach a quarter of an hour, and then a day.They always focus on the smaller targets--that is a minute and the bigger aim of the clock itself gets fulfilled.( 18 ) That's why the minute hand has to work less,as the second hand does most of the running around.The minute hand just has to make 60 movements on a clock dial.The hour hand is the luckiest of the lot.It just moves for once in an hour.But the second hand moves for 3,600 times around the dial for the same hour!
Parailel to this, in our life we never realize that we have lots to do.Between every big task we can always find enough time to fit in smaller tasks, ff you are waiting for a train at the station, you can always read a magazine or rather chalk out your study timetable for exams.While traveling in the bus too one can find enough time to at least skim through the previous day's notes.(19) Be like the clock.Always keep on ticking by involving yourself in various things and learning new things.These small knowledge and experience modules will perhaps one day take you to your bigger goal some day. They say "Time and Tide waits for no man".If so, now stop stating at the screen and utilize your time effectively!
So that's the end of today's lecture, and I do hope that it will enlighten you of something, which is meaningful for both you and me.Thank you!
