A
Four employees of Haier Group, China’s largest home appliances manufacturer, were fired for taking a
nap during working hours, which caused heated discussions online. Should employees be fired for taking a
nap at work? Readers share their opinions.
Vivianwang(China).
Why is a short nap seen as such a terrible offense? I always feel extremely sleepy after lunch. After I
take a nap during lunch break I feel more energetic.
Instead of firing the workers dozing off, employers
should address the problem and adopt a routine that works best for them.
Sakura(Japan)
This is the opposite of how it is in Japan, where sleeping at your workplace is often seen as a sign that
you've been working hard. So people in Japan nod off whenever and wherever they can.
Thunderbird(Canada)
Napping at work time shall be punished. In some severe cases, repeated misconduct may lead to the end
of employment in some Canadian government establishments.
Crystal (UK)
I experienced the power of naps myself when I was writing my new book,
The Way Were Working Isn't
Working
. I wrote at home, in the mornings, In three separate, highly focused 90-minute sessions. By the
time I finished the last one, I was usually exhausted
—
physically, mentally and emotionally. I ate lunch and
then took a 20-to 30-minute nap. When I awoke, I felt incredibly refreshed. Where I might otherwise have
dragged myself through the afternoon, I was able to focus effectively on work until 7 pm or so.
Eric (USA)
Years ago, Craig Yarde, founder of Yarde Metals in Bristol, CT, noticed his employees napping on the
job. So when he built a new office space in 1995, he built a nap room, with couches. Fifteen years later,
Yarde Metals has grown to nearly 700 employees, with $$500 million in annual revenue(

) and locations
up and down the east coast

each with its own dedicated napping room.

One Chicago kindergartner wanted to feed the homeless instead of holding a birthday party.
Armani Crews, who turned 6 earlier this month, had been begging her parents for “
a
few months ”to
feed
homeless
people
in
her
community,
but
h
er
parents
thought
“she
was
joking”. Her
mother,
Artesha
Crews, told ABC News.
“I said, ‘OK, we’ll make some sandwiches,’ to which Armani said, ‘No. I want the same thing we’d
have at my birthday party,’ ” her mother recalled.
Even when her father, Antoin
e, informed her that if she wanted to go through with this, she wouldn’t get
a birthday gift, the girl, whose birthday was on March 5, persisted.
So the Chicago family spent about $$300 buying food to deliver to homeless people in the city’s East
Garfield Park neighborhood. They purchased chicken, fish, spaghetti, corn, green Deans, mashed potatoes,
rolls, cake, cookies, fruit and water.
After
Armani
mentioned
her
plan
at
the
family’s
local
church,
congregation
members
donated
other
items to create care packages for the homeless. Each care package included a toothbrush, toothpaste, and a
snack, such as a granola bar and so on.
Armani’s birthday party was a success, with the family feeding more than 125 people who gathered.
In a statement, the kindergarten stu
dent told ABC News, “It was nice to be nice.”
Her mother added,
“She was excited. She was happy. Everybody was being fed
.....
One of the gentlemen said he hadn’t had a
hot meal in a long time.”
Now the 6-year-old wants to host another community meal for the homeless. Her mother said the family
plans to return to the park “within the next couple of weeks”.
They hope more and more people will give a
hand to the massive homeless people in Chicago.

B.
She begged her parents to feed the homeless regularly.
C.

C. Congregation members.
D. ABC News reporters.
26. What can we infer about the homeless from the passage?
A. Armani Crews held a birthday party for them.

C. The girl felt disappointed with the party for them.
D. Homeless people are a great concern in Chicago.
27. What column of a newspaper can we probably find this text?

The yea
r 2020 will mark the beginning of the decade of the yold, or the “young old”, as the Japanese
call people aged between 65 and 75. The traditional retirement age is 65. One might therefore expect peak
retirement. By continuing to work, and staying socially
engaged, the yold will change the world, as they
have done several times before at different stages of their lives.
The yold are more numerous, healthier and wealthier than previous generations of seniors. The yold are
busier,
too.
In
short,
the
yold
are
not
just
any
group
of
old
people.
They
are
challenging
the
traditional
expectations of the retired as people who wear slippers and look after the grandchildren. That will influence
consumer, service and financial markets.
The over-60s are one of the fastest- growing groups of customers of the airline business. The yold are
vital to the tourism industry because they spend much more, when taking a foreign holiday, than younger
