To squeeze the most out of each shining hour we have shortened the opera, quickened the pace of the movie and put culture in pocket-sized packages. We make the busy bee look like a lazy creature, the ant like a sluggard. We live sixty-mile-minute and the great efficiency smiles.
We wish we could return to that pleasant day when we considered time a friend instead of an enemy; when we did things willingly and because we wanted to, rather than because our timetable called for it, But that of course would not be efficiency; and we Americans must be efficient.
The phrase that best expresses the main idea of this passage is ______. ()
A.the modern pace
B.our interest in shortened operas
C.how to make the best use of leisure time
D.planning our time scientifically

"Were you ever in a hospital when you were small? How did you feel?" The doctors in Children's Hospital are asking for money for children's toys. Some children in the hospital must stay in bed for many weeks. Toys are needed to keep the sick children happy and quiet. Money for them can be sent to the hospital.
After Mrs. Weeks read the story,she said,"This story gave me an idea."
"You want us to bring some money for the toys." "We could bring some of our own toys for the children in the hospital, "said the boys and the girls one after another.
"Well, your ideas would be nice, "Mrs. Weeks said, "but mine is different."
"We could make some toys, "shouted one of them.
Mrs. Weeks smiled. "Do you think you could make toys?" she asked.
"Yes, yes, "the whole class answered.
"Great! Let's begin to make toys tomorrow, "said Mrs. Weeks.
On Saturday afternoon,Mrs. Weeks took the children to the hospital with the toys made by her students. The children in the hospital felt very happy to see the toys. So did the children in the class.
