英語口語：每日口語第49期 You need a vacation

You need a vacation.你需要休假。

My friend is an engineer who works for Boeing, an American Company.He had been working very hard for a long time.I said, “You need a vacation.”I hoped that he would take a break from work and have a nice vacation.I am so glad when he told me that he and his family had just returned from a short vacation trip to Honolulu, on the Hawaii Islands.They stayed at a five-star hotel at the world-famous Waikiki Beach and did a lot of sightseeing.But he continued in his email, “I am trying to catch up with my work

today.”He is a sedulous person, of course, a great wisdom.He feels fortunate that have a good job working for a great company.原文來自 必克英語
