death in the 1980s in Japan, where long working hours are the norm there.Official figures say it that the Japanese work about 1780 hours a year,slightly less than Americans (1800 hours a year),though more than Germans(1440). But the statistics are misleading because of they do not count 'free overtime'(work that an employee is obliged to perform. but not paid for). It is being estimatedthat one in three men who aged 30 to 40 works over 60 hours a week. Factoryworkers arrive early and stay late, without an extra pay. Training at weekends may beuncompensated. During the past 20 years of economic inactivity, many companieshave been replaced full-time workers with part-time ones. Regular staff who remainare benefit from lifetime employment but feel obliged to work extra hours lesttheir positions will be made temporary. Cultural factors reinforce these trends.Hard work is respected as the cornerstone of Japan's post-war economic miracle.The value of self-sacrifice puts the benefit of the group above that of the individual.

听力原文:Friend: I like your new T-shirt, Sarah.
Sarah: Mm. The colours are nice, but the problem is it's too big. I got it from the shop at the sports centre. I went swimming there because it was a hot day, but it was too noisy for me. There were a lot of people in the pool.
Friend: So was it difficult to find a space in the car park there?
Sarah: Yes! It's not big enough.
Friend: Did you go to the cafe?
Sarah: Yes, for a cold drink. But I didn't stay. The tables and floor weren't clean.
Friend: Ugh! But I hear they have a good football club there.
Sarah: That's right. My brother wanted to go but it starts too late in the evening for him. It's a pity because it's not an expensive club.
Friend: Can you learn tennis there?
Sarah: I called about lessons but they cost too much.
Friend: I'll teach you tennis — but not today — it's too hot. Let's go for a cold swim in the river.
