　　A Boom in Adult Education

　　Every Tuesday and Friday evening sees Miss Li，my neighbor and a secretary in a company rush home after a hard day’s work，gulp down her meals and then hurry out to catch the bus for her English class. Miss Li’s case is not unique，and now more and more city adults spend their leisure time trying to improve themselves at school or college.

　　There are a number of reasons for people to go back for their education. Some people，like Miss Li，are doing it to acquire another degree or diploma to impress the society. To them more knowledge，or rather，more credentials means more opportunities for better jobs and quicker promotion.

　　Other people，especially those who are laid off or out of employment go to vocational school to prepare to return to the job market. They are eager for new skills so that they can be qualified for the jobs in retail trade，administration，education and other service categories to which they are strange because most of them were blue-collar workers in the factory.

　　There are also people who come to take such courses as Chinese traditional medicine，painting，calligraphy and photography. As their working weeks decline people begin to have time to fulfill their old dream of their heart’s desire.

　　Out of necessity or out of interest，people go back to school for the common goal——to improve themselves，and this boom in adult education，in turn，helps to raise the intellectual standard of the whole country.

关于国庆节的作文英语

　　A seven day long holiday has flown away。 Mourning my happy hours during the vacation， I've been looking forward to winter holidays。 People around me seemed to have enjoyed the vacation， too。 Then， is it fair that people have the same amount of holidays regardless of their occupations?

　　Nevertheless， pergent views emerge on the matter in question。 Some people are of the opinion that laborers should have the same length of holiday。 They hold the view that people are born equal and should be treated equally。 The same amount of leisure time may eliminate the unfairness among people who might be upset psychologically if otherwise。

　　At first sight， it may seem to be an attractive idea， but it doesn't bear much analysis。

　　To begin with， people do different kinds of jobs featuring different labor intensity and so the time needed to refresh their physical condition varies。 For example， blue collar workers may work longer hours before they get tired physically， while white collar workers such as doctors and teachers are more mentally stressed。 Unable to work continuously as long as those physical labor workers， white collars need more time to pull through the mental weariness than physical tiredness。

　　All in all， people in different jobs assume different responsibilities and have different degrees of pressure。

　　Secondly， different tasks and duties are required for different professions， resulting in the variety of holiday periods for people in different walks of life。

　　Some employees cannot have their legal holidays and even have to work overtime， such as policemen， construction workers and people in the service line。Those professions just can't be interrupted for a mornent;other wise the society will be in a mess。 Even for some people in the same occupation， they cannot have the same holidays entitled to them due to many factors out of human control， such as special assignments， and health conditions etc， then not to say people in different fields。

　　Suppose we， as teachers do， all have three months' holiday in a year。

　　Then factories have to employ considerably more workers because some of them are enjoying happy holiday。That's obviously against the principles of doing business at lower cost and efficiency。

　　If we have only three days off in a year， then all the people in our country will be working day after day。 No one can squeeze time to visit those tourist resorts leisurely。 It goes without saying that the tourist trade and catering industry thus cannot develop rapidly and healthily。
