I cant live without it. I know this is not true for everybody. Many people dont listen to music and they can get along quite well. But music is everywhere in our life. For example, when you watch films or TV plays, do you find them interesting if there is no music? You would find them boring. And when you are waiting for the train or the plane, you would like music because it makes the time shorter.It is true that music is everywhere in our life. Some people like to sit by the sea and listen to the sound of the sea. Some enjoy listening to the singing of birds. Those sounds are some kinds of music. So music has meaning for everyone in some way or other. Of course, it has special meaning for people like me. We spend our lives playing or writing music.Someone said, “Through music a child goes into a world of beauty, learns to take care of others and makes his mind and body strong.” Music is an important part of our lives.（1）The passage tells us that the writer _.

They dont have enough time to relax or to stay with their family.Work hours are different from one country to another. In France, people spend about 1,646 hours a year at work. In Japan, however, people work about 2,159 hours a year. That means a Japanese worker works 513 more hours a year than a French worker.Why do people work so many hours? Some people work extra hours because they want to make more money. However, many companies dont pay overtime. Their workers dont get more pay for more work. Some people think its their duty to work more hours. Some are afraid of losing their jobs if they dont work more hours.Many people say that their vacations are too short. In France, people get five weeks of paid vacation a year. In Germany, they get four to six weeks, and in the United States, two weeks. One study shows fewer than half of workers used all their vacation days. In Great Britain, there is a saying, All work and no play makes Jack a dull (迟钝的) boy.
