▶ Your Answer :
Both reading and listening deal with the same topic about working four days a week. The reading passage asserts that a working for four-days policy makes companies and their employees get more benefits. However, the (대소문자) lecturer brings several points to contradict the reading passage. First of all, the reading passage insists that the four-day workweek policy allows companies to increase their profits since employees feel rested and alert. So they make fewer mistakes during their working. In contrast, the lecturer refutes the reading passage by explaining that it makes companies spend more money on new employee's health care, office space, and computers. Secondly, the author in the reading passage describes that this option to employees can decrease unemployment rates because if full-time workers begin to work for (시간을 나타낼 때 for이라는 전치사가 대부분의 경우에 따라 붙습니다.) fewer hours, some of their workload would have to be shifted to others. Nonetheless, the professor casts doubt on the point by delineating that companies would reinforce workers to do the same amount work during the same time. Lastly, the writer in the reading passage mentions that this policy helps workers to have more free time. Hence the quality of their lives will increase. On the other hand, the speaker in the lecture counters the writer's contention by accounting that it has risk (어떤 종류의 risk인가요?). To be specific, it would be bad for their careers.
