(25) If more workers worked for only four days each week there would be fewer commuters, and
therefore less traffic congestion and less pollution. Also, fewer people would be unemployed
because there would be more work to go around. There is evidence that part-time workers are
absent from work less often than full-time workers, so a person working a four-day week would
be more productive. Less work means less pressure, which means less stress and people
would be happier.
Which one of the following can be drawn as a conclusion from the above passage?
A People choosing to work a four-day week would have to take a 20% pay cut.
B There would be less pressure on the health services if most workers were on a four day
week.
C The economy would be more competitive if people worked more productively.
D The government should enforce a four-day working week.
E There would be many benefits to working a four-day week.
ANSWER= E
