My 10-year-old Donna said, "Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow?" Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.
"Sure, honey, that sounds great.” I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile.
In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. "I'll be back soon." she told me. But three days later, Lillian's sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn't come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.
The next day Donna brought her new friend home. “Hi, Mrs Loggia." the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she shot me with a big smile. "My name is Laura."
My daughter's new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled (迷惑) when Laura's mom came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. "Judy!" she cried. "It's me, Lillian's sister, from Washington Heights." Yes, my daughter's friend looked familiar. She was Lillian's niece.

Many people say that they too many hours. They don't have free time with their families. They can't take care of things at home. They don't have time .
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 a Japanese worker works 513 more hours a year than a French worker. That is about 12 weekends of extra (额外的) work!
Why do people work so many hours? Some people work extra hours because they want more money, but many companies for extra work. The people in these companies work extra hours because they think it's their duty. Some people are afraid they their job if they don't work extra hours.
Many people say that their vacations are too short. In France, people five weeks of paid vacation. In Germany, they get about four weeks. In the United States, two weeks of vacation the average(平均). And many people don't use all of their vacation days. In one survey, in England, fewer than half of workers all their vacation days. In English, people say, "All work and no play Jack a dull boy." That is true, there are a lot of dull people in the world.
