答案 Dear editor, I have just read the article inviting more comments on people’s work pressure. The progress of technology makes our work more efficient and less laborious, but somehow this only makes us feel more stressed and less relaxed. One’ s worry about job security exerts a great strain on him. In the past, most jobs required basically similar skills and simple knowledge. Nowadays, a lot more is demanded of workers in almost all fields. Many people hate to work very hard even after working hours to keep abreast of new developments and learn new skills and knowledge to stay on top in the job market. The introduction of high-tech machinery is another source of stress. These facilities have failed to free workers from heavy workloads; on the contrary, additionally, E-mail has revolutionized the traditional paper-based information transmission system, but the result is that every day you are bombarded with hundreds of letters that you will never find time to read. I feel that it is not too much to say that modem technology has reduced human beings to being slaves of machines. To add to all this, in modem society your success is measured in terms of the money you earn. The struggle to keep up with the Joneses makes people frantically pursue material gain, caring nothing about job satisfaction and enjoying life. All though modern society makes’ our prospect less and less likely, Leisure constitutes an important part of our life. For people who want to adopt a healthy and meaningful life style, it is important to find time to "smell the flowers". Yours faithfully, Wang Yue
