Some developed countries in the world have begun to shorten “working hours. Japan, on

the other hand, has been in the culture of overwork. The problem is so severe that the country

has even created a term for it: karoshi, which means death by overwork from stress-induced

illnesses or severe depression. If the system of the four-day workweek is tested in Japan, what

will happen?

A growing number of smaller companies are adopting a four-day workweek. Now the

results of a recent trial at Microsoft (MSFT) suggest it could work even for the biggest

businesses.

The company introduced a program in Japan called the “Work Life Choice Challenge “.

During the program, Microsoft shut down its offices every Friday in August and gave all

employees an extra day off each week.

The results were promising: while the amount of time spent on work was cut dramatically,

productivity – measured by sales per employee – went up by almost 40% compared to the same

period of the previous year, the company said in a statement last week.

In addition to reducing working hours, managers urged the staff to cut down on the time

they spent on meetings.

They suggested that meetings should last no longer than 30 minutes. Employees were

also encouraged to cut down on meetings altogether by using an online messaging app

( Microsoft’s, of course).

The effects were widespread. More than 90% of Microsoft’s 2,280 employees in Japan

later said they were impacted by the new measures, according to the company. By shutting

down earlier each week, the company was also able to save on other resources, such as

electricity.

4.Why is the system of the four-day workweek tested in Japan?

A. Because overwork has caused serious problems.

B. Because the offices must be shut down on Friday.

C. Because the staff can get extra days to rest easily.

D. Because smaller companies have taken the measure.

5.What’s the result of adopting a four-day workweek?

A. It is a waste of energy.

B. The workers earned less money.

C. The working efficiency increases greatly.

D. Japan’s unemployment rate is barely rising.

6. How could the time the staff spent on meetings be reduced?

A. By cancelling meetings.

B. By using emails to respond.

C. By cutting down on working hours.

D. By using a certain online messaging app.

7.What is the staff’s attitude to the new measures?

A. Supportive. B. Negative. C. Critical. D. Indifferent.

A new study on the link between chili and dementia ( 痴呆) may bring bad news for spicy

food addicts. Researchers have found that eating lots of chili may cause an increased risk of

dementia.

The study, led by Shi Zumin, analyzed 4,582 Chinese adults aged 55 and above between

1991 and 2006 and found evidence of faster cognitive decline in those who consistently ate

more than 50 grams of chili a day. “Chili consumption was found to be beneficial to body

weight and blood pressure in our previous studies. However, in this study, we found negative

effects on cognition among older adults,” Shi said in a press release published Tuesday.

“Chili is one of the most commonly used spices in the world and particularly popular in

Asia compared to European countries,” Li Ming from the University of Southern Australia said

in the press release. “In certain regions of China, such as Sichuan and Hunan, almost one in

three adults consumes spicy food every day. “

The researchers said people of normal body weight maybe more sensitive to chili intake

and hence their memory and weight suffer a bigger impact. Worldwide, around 50 million

people have dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form that may contribute

to 60 percent to 70 percent of the cases, according to the World Health Organization. At

present, no treatment can cure dementia or change its progressive course.

8. According to the text, what aspect is chili consumption harmful to ?

A. Body shape. B. Body weight.
