　　為了假期，人們必須提前工作整整一周。這種安排并不局限于勞動節假期。根據每年的官方安排，法定假日前把周末調成工作日，上班族就可以享受“更長的假期”。這意味著，更長的假期要以更長的工作周為代價。然而，公眾不是很接受這種安排。網上調查的調查對象中，高達75%的人表示不滿這種假期安排，93%的人抱怨假期太短。很多人抱怨負責人的安排，呼吁更合理的假期安排。如果假期是以更繁重的工作任務為代價，那么上班族會無力消受。

　　To enjoy a holiday，people often have to work for a whole week previous to it.This arrangement is not just confined to the Labor Day holiday.According to the official schedule each year,office workers can enjoy so-called “a longer holiday”by exchanging their weekend before the legal holiday for weekdays，which means a longer holiday comes at the price of a longer workweek.This arrangement,however,has not been well received by the public.Up to 75 percent of the respondents to a survey on the Internet said they were dissatisfied with it.And 93 percent complained that holidays are too short.Many people have complained about the authorities'arrangement and called for a more reasonable holiday schedule.If holidays are coming along at the cost of an even heavier burden,they will be hardly enjoyable for the workers.

　　春運(Spring rush)的產生主要來自中國人的傳統觀念及社會人力大量流動的情況。在中國，春節是一年中最重要的傳統節日，無論離家有多遠，人們都要盡量在除夕時與家人團聚，共度新春。自改革開放以來,人口流動開始日益頻繁。有非常多的人進城打工，造成了人力的大量流動。此外，這段時間是大學放寒假時期，多數學校在春節前兩到三周開始放假，在正月十五左右開學，因此返家的學生也構成了春運的另一主要人群。
