Weekends
1. What do you do in your spare time?
I usually play computer or mobile phone games when I
am completely free.
2. What do you usually do on weekends?
Usually I will spend Saturday in library and the
Sunday morning in the church.
3. When do you spend time with your family?
When I was in china, we normally spend lunch time
together, because my parents have to work while I need to attend school, so
evening is the only time that we could meet on weekdays.
4. What do other people in your hometown
usually do on weekends?
Well, in china, Saturday is also the working day, and
it is unpaid. I don’t know when it started, but I’m definitely sure that it is
the fact now. And Sunday, most people would go shopping or hang out with
friends.
5. What are you going to do next weekend?
Probably I will do as usual, spend Saturday in library
and the Sunday morning in the church.
6. Do you feel that weekends are more important
to you than when you were a child?
Yes, because
when I was a child, everyday equals to weekend, since I didn't need to attend
school, just monkey around. But after I grow up, that is the only time I could extricate
myself from the daily routines like assignments or part-time jobs.
7. Which do you prefer, Saturday or Sunday?
(Why?)
Saturday, because Sunday leave me with a depressed
feeling that it is about to usher in a new working day, while in Saturday I
feel more relax because there is still another day to go.
8. Would you say weekends are important to
people?
Of course, even god needs a rest in the Sunday let
alone people. And we do need a life, it would be better to balance work and
life, in order to keep a jovial mood and good health.
9. How does the average person in China spend
his or her weekend?
Well, in china, Saturday is also the working day, and
it is unpaid. I don’t know when it started, but I’m definitely sure that it is
the fact now. And Sunday, most people would go shopping or hang out with
friends.
10. Do you know anyone who works at the weekend?
Well, in china, Saturday is also the working day, and
it is unpaid. I don’t know when it started, but I’m definitely sure that it is
the fact now. and apart from this, I suppose people who work in the service
industry have to work on weekends as well like tourist guide, or even some doctors
need to be on duty in case of emergency.
11. Should people be working or resting on
Saturdays and Sundays?
12. Is it important for people to have weekends
off?
I’d prefer to rest, because apart from work we have
life as well, we need to balance them. And weekends provide us with a great
opportunity to extricate us from daily routines, which is beneficial to our
health as well.
13. Should people be paid overtime for working at
the weekend?
Yes, because people’s reward should match with their efforts,
otherwise it’s a violation of people’s rights.
