There is simply no such thing as "the rate that time passes", any more than there is a "rate that the words in a book appear on the page". A word is a word, and a second is a second, and we can perceive that word or that second any way we like, and it is still one word or one second. The rate of flow of time is a tautology, that's why it sounds like "1 second passes in one second".....
Not true, if A observer's time is "curved" , meaning, compare with a "background / other B observer's " , d^2 (ta)/ (d tb)^2 = (some value).

Under gravitation, time axis bends ... against a background, time "flows".
In it's simplest form, to say it reversely, no matter, time does not "flow".

The "rate of flow" depends on the "Energy".
