文章大意：本文讲述了美国人的时间观。
答案：
1.wisely 用副词修饰动词use。
2.are trained 美国人被培训养成了使用自己的时间做建设性的事情的习惯。所以用被动语态。
3.so/therefore 前后句之间为因果关系，所以填so/therefore。
4.who 此处为定语从句引导词，空后的从句缺少主语，所以填关系代词;先行词是人，所以填who。非限制性定语从句不用that。
5.to/toward(s) attitude“态度”后接介词to或者toward(s)。
6.to regard be likely to do... “可能做……”。
7.not 非欧洲人把时间看得很随意而不是很有价值的东西。
8.companies 空后的are可知，此处用复数。
9.least 在人们花最少时间准备饭菜和吃饭的国家里，麦当劳、肯德基和其他一些快餐公司都很成功。little的最高级为least。
10.bringing bring与句子主语they之间构成逻辑上的主谓关系，所以用其ing形式作状语。
