考研英语短文写作范文（十五）

Traditional wisdom has it that slow and careful work yields perfect results. But nowadays many companies force workers to finish their tasks as fast as they can, even by lengthening the working hours. As is shown in the picture, workers in a construction site have to keep on working until midnight.

Such a practice is very harmful. First, it cannot ensure the quality of the project. Overworking makes workers feel exhausted, some of whom might be absent-minded and fail to fulfill their tasks with adequate energy. Second, workers are not provided with satisfying working conditions. In the picture we find no lights or other facilities for lighting, and the workers work by the moonlight and thus are very likely to have accident. Thirdly, it goes against China‘s Labor Code which prohibits employers from forcing workers to work more than eight hours per day without overtime pay. Therefore, we have every reason to take immediate measures against this negative practice. The government should strictly enforce the Labor Code, as well as take workers‘ rights into serious consideration. Working conditions should also be improved so as to prevent workers‘ getting physical injuries or harm. Only by these means can we avoid producing poor-quality products and maintain worker health.

老人们经常说，慢工出细活。但是现在很多公司都迫使工人尽快完成他们的任务，即使是通过延长工作时间来完成。就像这幅图中所显示的那样，一个建筑工地的工人们不得不工作到深夜。

这种做法是非常有害的。首先，这不能保证工程的质量。过度的工作量使工人们精疲力竭，他们可能变得工作时心不在焉、无法用足够的精力来完成任务。第二，工人们也没有得到令人满意的工作环境。在图中还没任何灯光和其他照明设施，工人们就着月光工作，因此很容易发生危险。第三，这种做法也违反了中国的《劳动法》，该法律禁止雇主迫使工人工作超过八小时而不支付加班费。

因此，我们有足够的理由尽快采取措施来治理这种不好的做法。一方面，政府应该严格执行《劳动法》，并认真考虑工人们的权利。另一方面，应该通过改进工作环境防止对工人们造成身体上的伤害。只有通过这些方式，我们才能防止造成低质量的工程，并保持工人们的健康。
