    Many people say that they are working too many hours. They don't have enough time to relax or to stay with their family.

    Work hours are different from one country to another. In France, people spend about 1, 646 hours a year at work. In Japan, however, people work about 2, 159 hours a year. That means a Japanese worker works 513 more hours a year than a French worker.

    Why do people work so many hours?Some people work extra hours because they want to make more money. However, many companies don't pay overtime. Their workers don't get more pay for more work. Some people think it's their duty to work more hours. Some are afraid of losing their jobs if they don't work more hours.

    Many people say that their vacations are too short. In France, people get five weeks of paid vacation a year. In Germany, they get four to six weeks, and in the United States, two weeks. One study shows fewer than half of workers used all their vacation days. In Great Britain, there is a saying, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull(迟钝的) boy.

Mandy's family lived in a small village. They had a hard but happy life. Mandy was never lonely,1 many children played on the hill behind their house.

But one winter, Mandy fell ill. Her parents were too 2 to pay for the medicine. Mandy had to sit by the window, watching her friends outside.

One day, a spider(蜘蛛) came and began to spin(结网) down next to her. When Mom came in, she noticed the3 too." Please get out!"

" No, she is my friend. Please let her stay. Look! She's spinning 4 me."

How thankful the spider was!5 came. The family started to decorate(装饰) the tree. Mom prepared some eggs and Mandy started to paint on them. But after a while, she was tired. Mom helped her finish the 6 and hung them on the tree. Dad found some pieces of wood and cut a few stars, but without Mandy, it didn't feel the same 7 .

When the family were asleep, the spider began to 8 . She spun down to the floor, then carefully climbed every branch(树枝), leaving her web s behind.9 , she reached the top of the tree.

Before long, the 10 air blew under the door and turned the gray webs to silver—— real silver.

" Look! It's real silver!" Mandy was very 11 ." The best Christmas gift for me!"

Martin is my youngest son. He likes staying alone and he seldom laughs. As the boy's mother, I was 1 about him. I took him to see the 2 in many hospitals, but it didn't work well. 

Nothing could make him happy except the recycling truck(垃圾回收车) passing by my house. Every afternoon, he raced to the front of the house, waiting 3 the truck. 

When we were late and 4 the truck, Martin would be very disappointed. One day, I stopped the truck and introduced 5

"Nice to meet you, too. I'm Vince, " the driver greeted me in a happy 6

"Your coming is the most exciting moment for my son, "I smiled. 

After knowing our story, he said, "7 you please give me your phone number? Maybe I can send you a message 8 I arrive. "

Then began our friendship with Vince. 

Recently, I said to him, "It's my little boy's birthday tomorrow. Can you do 9 special for him?

The next day, as I was standing by the driveway with Martin, we saw the 10 truck running down the street with a loud beep(嘟嘟声). Like a superman in a movie, Vince stopped and walked towards us with a box in his hand. 

"Today is your birthday, Martin, and here's a gift. "

He handed the box to my son. Inside, there was a green model truck like his. My son, surprised, looked up 11 and thanked him. 

After chatting for several 12 , he was about to leave for work. I tried to give him some 13 for his help. He kept shaking his head and 14 my money, saying, "Today you, tomorrow me. "

I was deeply moved(感动) by these15 words. And I have been ready to help others whenever I can. You will never know when you're going to be the one that needs help.
