Question

In America，there are(有) 365 days in a year. We sleep 8 hours a day, so we have 122 days for sleeping. Then our work time has 243 days left（剩下）. But there are 52 weekends in a year. Every weekend is two days. We lose（失去） another 104 days a year for work. It takes（花费） us about one hour to have breakfast and supper. This comes to 15 days over a year. But we can’t work all that time-we need a holiday. Let’s say we have three weeks’ holiday. We don’t work all day. Four free hours each evening takes up 61 days. We have to remember that we get 2 days’ holiday at Easter（复活节）, 3 days at Christmas and 1day at the New Year. There are also 4 Bank holidays. Take those 10 days away and we have 32 days for work. But then we have one and a half（一半）hours’ lunch every day, and half an hour’s coffee break(休息). That comes to 30 days a year. This means that we have only a few days left for work every year!
