8.3 作业~
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? A job with more vacation time but a low salary is better than a job with a high salary but less vacation time.
With the high speed of modern society, people always in a higher pressure. As a result, many people would enjoy a job with more vacation time but a low salary. While, others are not, they rather like a job with high salary but less vacation time. Personally, I would like to say that I prefer a job with more vacation time.
Admittedly, there is no doubt that with the development of the science, human beings have become more concerning about the practical interests, such as efficiency, productivity and most importantly, the money. As earning more and more money is their primary goal, they would like a job with a higher salary rather than a job with more vacation time.
However, on the other hand, some job would be a very tiring, tedious experience at times. If one get regular breaks in between intensive periods of work, they will be more relaxed and ready to learn new material upon returning to work. In addition to this, a change in environment, even if only for a week, gives one the opportunity to relax while reflecting on one’s job. Many people find that even a short break allows them to refresh enough to continue with work.
Besides, having more vacation throughout the year is also good for one’s social life. Just imagine that you are enjoying a charming ocean view. The sky there is so blue and the beach is always full of sunshine. You know how romantic it can ever be, just relax yourself on the beach, when the sun is setting down, when the ocean breeze is blowing and the seabirds are singing. What’s more, if people have the opportunity to catch up with friends and family on a regular basis through the year, they will never feels as though they were losing touch with loved ones. Socializing with friends and family is also an excellent way to relax. If one frequently has this kind of opportunity, they will be more at ease and ready for the work.
Moreover, vacation to faraway lands can give person more perspective on the world, and can also provide excellent memories. Consider the Americans and people from the Arab World. People form America prefer the casual and relaxing apparel such as jeans and T-shirt which reveals their attitude of neat and convenient and their extrovert racial character; while people from Arab World always wear the black clothes and the veils especially incase of their women, and those features of appearance expose the significant role religious doctrines play in their life. Moreover, American people are more likely to hug with each other when they meet after separated for a long time. This warm hug roots in the freedom and open mind of America civilization. English people behave in a gentle, respectful and courteous manner toward one another, and value human dignity. Japanese people tend to work long hours, diligence, will power and strong conviction. All of these can through travelling to these countries tells us.
To sum up, from what has been discussed above, we may draw the conclusion that a job with more vacation time would definitely benefit us. Though many times of vacations, we can not only relax ourselves, enhance the efficacy, but also we can broad our vision about the whole world, which would enrich our life.
