On Weekends
How much do you know the weekends which are so familiar to us?
In fact,the concept of one non-working day could be traced back to the times of Bible,while the idea of having two non-working days in every week was not far from us. The American idea of the weekend has its origin in labor union who wanted to accommodate Jewish workers. It is generally known that Jewish took Saturday instead of Sunday as their Sabbath. The first five-day working week was started by a cotton millin New England. And in 1926·Henry Ford began shutting his car factories on Saturday and Sunday. Then,the rest of the USA followed the suit.
关于周末
对于我们已经十分熟悉的周末休息日你知道多少呢?
事实上,一周休息一天的观念可以追溯到圣经时代,而一周休息两天的观念所产生的历史背景则离我们不远 。美国人的周末观念源自工会内部,为了调解和犹太工人们的矛盾 。众所周知,犹太人将周六看做是他们的安息日,而不是周日 。第一个五天工作制的规定起源自新英格兰的一家纺织厂内 。1926年亨利·福特开始在周六和周日将自己的汽车厂房关闭,而后美国的其他地方才效仿之 。
