Leisure plays an important part in British life. There are four main reasons for this.
First of all, people spend less time working now than they used to, mostly due to the introduction of new technology in industry. The normal British working week is from Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, although some people regularly work a few hours’ overtime each week. Secondly, all working people get a minimum of two weeks’ paid holiday a year. In addition, there are six or more bank holidays a year when all banks and businesses are closed. In some cases the dates of these national holidays change from year to year and in different parts of Britain.
Another reason is that, thanks to modern medicine and higher living standards, people live longer now. This means that after retirement, people have quite a few years of leisure left. Nowadays a much higher proportion of the population is over sixty, but in this group there are more women than men.
Finally, fewer babies are born each year and the average family in Britain has two children. This is one result of changing social attitudes. For example, many more married women now go out to work. The money they earn influences their leisure time. Even married women who do not go out to work have more time for interesting hobbies because most British homes have washing machines, vacuum cleaners and other laborsav-ing gadgets, or appliances.
"A paid holiday" means working people ______.
选项
A、have to pay for their holiday
B、have no pay when they are on holiday
C、get usual pay when they are on holiday
D、get less pay when they are on holiday
答案
