▶ Your Answer : | Some take it for granted that having a long vacation once a year is better than having a several brief vacations because they can enjoy and relax for a longer time. However, contrary to this notion, it is clear that there are more advantages of having several brief vacations. I will explain it based on following reasons. First of all, students can focus on their study better after several short vacations than long vacations. To be specific, students are not able to concentrate on their study for long time without any vacations. It can lower their abilities to study and eventually it can lower their grade. For example, my nephew had a brief vacation because of sudden typhoon near by his school. It was brief vacations about a week long. After that short vacation, he said he could refresh himself and relax during that time. Also, he said it helped him to concentrate well during the class.
Moreover, students can lower their stress level after several brief vacations better than long vacations. Specifically, having long vacations means they need to attend school longer at once so, it makes them study and do school work longer. It naturally causes stress to them and it can be linked to their health problem. By having several breaks, students can handle with their stress properly and increase their health. For instance, one of my brother's school canceled their spring vacation, which was around 2 weeks because of their hectic schedule. So, he needed to attend school without any break for 6 months. Before having summer vacation, he always go to the school and feels stress. He said he was not stressful at first but after keep going school without any break, stress was accumulated gradually. It even caused him feel really sick after a few months. In conclusion, I disagree with the statement that taking a long vacation once a year is better than having several brief vacations based on the reasons I mentioned above:performing better and lowering stress level.
