You can select on the read and an time.After channel which "interrupts" the select for a timeout.

You can't select on a read, though. select{} only works on channels. You can run the read in a separate goroutine, but that doesn't stop the read from happening.

You can't use the language "select", but you can call the select(2) system call.
