一篇英语阅读理解
An Englishman came to Tokyo with a contract that gave him two weeks paid holiday a year.He took the first.The second,he was warned in a none-too-subtle way,would incur the company's displeasure.
He doggedly persisted with travel plans,On the eve of his planned departure he found his desk piled high with extra work-- a suggestion from management he should stay and work.
August may be holiday time in the Western capitals of the world,but while London,Rome and New York are abandoned to tourists,in Tokyo it is business almost as usual.

The three or four week holidays common in Europe and North America remain a distant prospect for most Japanese workers,who regard the "workaholic" nickname they were given a decade ago by an irate European Community official with mixed pride and frustration.
