51、 report shows that many of us are working longer and harder than ever. In the past, employees worked eight or nine hours a day. Today, however, many companies expect their employees to work longer. In addition, the boundary between work and personal life has become less clear. If we are not working
52、in the office, we might be working at home. We are required to be on call whenever our company needs us. In short, we are all working and having less time with family and friends.This over-emphasis (过分强调) on work can lead to serious problems in our personal lives. The more time we spend at work, the
53、 less time there is available for maintaining relationships with our friends and family. Many of us spend so much time on the job that we hardly ever get to see our partners or children. When we do get home, we are often tired and lack the energy to spend time doing what we really enjoy.There are, h
54、owever, a number of ways in which we can regain control of our lives and correct the work-life balance.

56、 However, if we dont have a plan, there is a danger that we will miss out on the things that we really enjoy doing. So, if you like going to the cinema, make sure that you go regularly. Write it in your diary. If you enjoy having friends visit, plan a time and write that in your diary too. Its all t
