Think twice next time when someone asks you for "five minutes of your time" —it could cost you more than you think. A British professor has【S1】_____a mathematical formula to help people find out【S2】_____how much an hour of their time is worth. Professor Ian Walker of Warwick University【S3】_____the value of time after research showed that over 80 percent of【S4】_____would buy more time if they could afford it. "Traditionally, salaries have【S5】_____an indication of how we are valued at work," Walker, a(n) 【S6】_____professor, said in a statement. "However, by looking at salaries against taxation, the cost of living and【S7】_____variations, we can see how much an hour of our time is worth whether at work or home." The formula could help in making【S8】_____, such as whether to cook a meal or to get a takeaway, or whether to take【S9】_____transport or a taxi. Visitors to www. barclaycard. co. uk/timeismoney can find out the value of an hour of their time by entering their salary, the region where they work and what kind of work they do. For example, for a professional working in London and earning 25 000 pounds a year, an hour would be worth 6. 44 pounds. Cooking dinner would cost 5. 37 pounds—【S10】_____to get a takeaway, once you add the cost of the raw materials needed to make it yourself. Brushing your teeth comes at 32 pence—perhaps hard to find someone to do it for you for less.
