　　Task 2 工作类话题

　　题目翻译：雇主应该每年给员工至少四周的假期，以使员工在工作中做得更好。你在多大程度上同意或不同意这个说法?

　　Introduction:

　　Employee’s entitlement to annual leave or holidays from work is set out in legislation and in their contracts of employment. Nowadays, there are people argue that employers should allow their staff at least a four-week holiday a year to encourage employees to have better performance at work. Generally, I am in favor of this statement.

　　雇员享有年假或工作假期的权利在立法和雇佣合同中已经阐明。如今，有人认为雇主应该允许员工每年至少休假四周，以鼓励员工在工作中有更好的表现。整体上来说，我赞成这一说法。

　　Body 1:

　　Due to the challenging economic climate, there are still many employees who are compelled to work long hours and take less days off. A large proportion of them have to work overtime regularly or even work at home in order to keep the advantage in the face of stiff competition. Consequently, more stress and less time to have a life outside the office leads to a wide range of problems.

　　由于经济环境充满挑战，仍有许多员工被迫长时间工作并减少休假。他们当中的很大一部分人必须定期加班，甚至在家办公，以便于在激烈的竞争中保持优势。因此，他们面对更多的压力和更少的办公室以外的时间，这会导致各种各样的问题。

　　Body 2:

　　Taking a break from work does not necessarily translate into lower productivity; instead, employers can experience several significant benefits when employees take extended vacation time. Initially, it helps maintain performance. Employees today are exposed to all kinds of stress in the workplace, which poses potential threats to their health and fitness. Taking enough time away from the day job not only replenishes the mind, but also reduces the physical effects of stress on the body. As a result, employees could be healthier and less prone to taking sick days. Secondly, longer holidays can spark creativity. Bringing new ideas forward is usually not the person who is working crazy hours in the office, but someone who is getting outside of his or her day-to-day work. Sometimes the more leisure time an employee has, the more inspired he or she can become. Last but not the least, a relatively longer period of annual leave establishes a layer of trust between employers and employees, which is crucial to the development of the company.

　　短暂的休息并不一定会导致生产力下降;相反，当员工延长休假时间时，雇主可以体验到一些重要的好处。最简单的，它能有助于保持执行力。如今的员工面临着工作场所的各种压力，这对他们的健康构成了潜在的威胁。从日常工作中抽出足够的时间来休息，不仅可以充实内在，还可以减轻压力。因此，员工会更加健康，不容易生病。其次，较长的假期可以激发创造力。提出新想法的通常不是那些在办公室疯狂工作的人，往往员工休闲的时间越多，他/她就越有灵感。最后，相对较长的年假可以建立起雇主和雇员的信任，这对公司的发展至关重要。

　　Conclusion:

　　To conclude, I believe that building a corporate culture that values longer annual holiday is an intrinsic part of business success.

　　总而言之，我认为建立一个重视年假的企业文化是企业成功的内在组成部分。
