高中的英文老师为了让同学们全方位地接触英文,规定每个人都要订阅南华早报。这是一份英文的报章。每天的内容也包罗万有。既有新闻,娱乐,时事等,也有专门给青少年阅读的版块。

早上对我来说是非常繁忙的。我通常六点半起床,七点四十五分一定要出门。这样就能保证坐上一班比较空的地铁。
今天,我在吃早餐的时候,偶尔翻开了昨天女儿带回来的报纸。其中的一页引起了我的注意。标题是About the
Earth。是十二道和地球有关的多项选择题。我看了一下时间,还是许可的。但是只有十分钟左右。我拿起了笔,认真地看着一道又一道的题目。

我还是很喜欢这些挑战题的。一口气就把它做完。然后马上核对一下答案。结果,我并没有拿到满分。有些方面的知识面还是欠缺了一些。
我很庆幸在一天的开始前,我好好地利用上了这十分钟。
时间总不会停下丁点的脚步。
在指缝中,悄无声息地溜走了!
