British men are couch potatoes. They spend nearly half their free?time watching TV. They watch more TV than women, do less housework, less charity work and less childcare—but spend more time shopping, a poll(民意測驗) suggests. Analysts(分析家) from Eurostat, the EU's statistical office, interviewed working men and women in 10 countries.?
Britain, where men devoted 49% of their free?time to the box, came a narrow second to the Hungarians with 51%.German and Norwegian men watched the least TV—just over one third of their spare time.?
The analysts took the average of the figures for the whole year including holidays and weekends. They broke down the “average day” into five categories(類)—free-time, sleep, meals and personal care, travel, domestic chores(家務事) and work or study. It shows that British men have four hours and 41 minutes free time each day—20 minutes more than women. But women spend nearly double the amount of time on domestic chores than men. Almost three-and-a-half hours of a woman's day is taken up with domestic work, compared to less than two hours for men.?
Food preparation makes up the bulk(量) of the chores, with leaning and shopping the next most time-consuming. They further broke down the free-time and domestic categories to show that men spend 137 minutes each day in front of the TV, compared to women's 114 minutes.
Women spend slightly more time socializing resting and reading than men, but slightly less time on hobbies, sport and exercise. Universally unpopular with both sexes is culture—accounting for just 2% of both men and women's leisure time.?

Aimlessness has hardly been typical of the postwar Japan whose productivity and social harmony are the envy of the United States and Europe. But increasingly the Japanese are seeing a decline of the traditional work-moral values. Ten years ago young people were hardworking and saw their jobs as their primary reason for being, but now Japan has largely fulfilled its economic needs, and young people don't know where they should go next.
The coming of age of the postwar baby boom and an entry of women into the male-dominated job market have limited the opportunities of teenagers who are already questioning the heavy personal sacrifices involved in climbing Japans rigid social ladder to good schools and jobs. In a recent survey, it was found that only 24.5 percent of Japanese students were fully satisfied with school life, compared with 67.2 percent of students in the United States. In addition, far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than their counterparts did in the ten other countries surveyed.
While often praised by foreigners for its emphasis on the basics, Japanese education tends to stress test taking and mechanical learning over creativity and self-expression." Those things that do not show up in the test scores, personality, ability, courage or humanity are completely ignored," says Toshiki Kaifu, chairman of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party's education committee." Frustration against this kind of thing leads kids to drop out and run wild." Last year Japan experienced 2,125 incidents of school violence, including 929 assaults on teachers. Amid the outcry, many conservative leaders are seeking a return to the prewar emphasis on moral education. Last year Mitsuo Setoyama, who was then education minister, raised eyebrows when he argued that liberal reforms introduced by the American occupation authorities after World WarⅡ had weakened the "Japanese morality of respect for parents."
But that may have more to do with Japanese life-styles." In Japan," says educator Yoko Muro, "it’s never a question of whether you enjoy your job and your life, but only how much you can endure." With economic growth becoming centralization, fully 76 percent of Japans, 119 million citizens live in cities where community and the extended family have been abandoned in favor of isolated, two generation households. Urban Japanese have long endured lengthy commutes (travels to and from work) and crowded living conditions, but as the old group and family values weaken, the discomfort is beginning to tell. In the past decade, the Japanese divorce rate, while still well below that of the United States, has increased by more than 50 percent, and suicides have increased by nearly one-quarter.
【小題1】 In the Westerners eyes, the postwar Japan was_____ .
A.under aimless development | B.a positive example |
C.a rival to the West | D.on the decline |
A.Women's participation in social activities is limited. |
B.More workers are dissatisfied with their jobs. |
C.Excessive emphasis has been placed on the basics. |
D.The life-style has been influenced by Western values. |
A.Japanese education is praised for helping the young climb the social ladder. |
B.Japanese education is characterized by mechanical learning as well as creativity. |
C.More stress should be placed on the cultivation of creativity. |
D.Dropping out leads to frustration against test taking. |
A.the young are less tolerant of discomforts |
B.the divorce rate in Japan exceeds that in the U.S. |
C.the Japanese endure more than ever before |
D.the Japanese appreciate their present life |

根據短文內容,從短文后的七個選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項
為多余選項。
Any car accident is frightening, but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water, with you trapped inside, is absolutely terrifying. 【小題1】 However, most deaths result from panic, without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water. By adopting a brace(支撐) position, acting decisively and getting out fast, you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.
Brace yourself for impact (撞擊力). As soon as you're aware that you're going off the road and into a body of water, adopt a brace position. The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle, so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the "ten and two" position.
Undo your seatbelt. 【小題2】 Unbuckle the children, starting with the oldest first. Forget the cell phone call. Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call.
【小題3】 Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window. A car's electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water, so try the method of opening it electronically first. Many people don't think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking.
Break the window. If you aren't able to open the window, or it only opens halfway, you'll need to break it with an object or your foot. It may feel counter-intuitive (有悖常理的) to let water into the car. 【小題4】
Escape when the car has equalized. If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced, you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival. 【小題5】 While there is still air in the car, take slow, deep breaths and focus on what you're doing.
Open the window as soon as you hit the water.
Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.
It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually.
Such accidents are particularly dangerous to the risk of drowning.
In conclusion, if you know what to do in the water, you will be safe.
This is the first thing to attend to, yet it often gets forgotten in the panic.
But the sooner the window is open, the sooner you can escape directly through it.
