Nataliia - it would have been easier if you attached a sample file, because it is unclear if there are more than the 8 columns that you have shown above.
However, if there are just eight columns and each is separated by a tab, then you could use textscan as
fid = fopen('myDataFile.txt');
[data] = textscan(fid,'%f\t%s\t%f\t%f\t%f\t%f\t%f\t%f\n');
fclose(fid);
Try using the above code and see what happens. Hopefully, data will be a cell array with eight columns of data (with the second being an array of strings, for the time data).
