The most hated day of the week is misunderstood. When the Boomtown Rats, an Irishband, re

leased “IDon't Like Mondays” in 1979, the song became an instant hit.

What many. do recognise all too well is the difficulty of gathering the energy to get out of bed

onMondaymornings in order to face the week ahead. Many bosses argue that starting off the week

inperson inthe officecreates good energy. However, plenty of employees be g to differ.

A paper published by the Journal of Applied Psychology, found that people tend to be more ill

-manneredon Mondays, and grow more polite as the week unfolds. The authors have diagnosed an

ewcondition, Mondayitis, which is defined. as “a systemic illness with collections of symptomsinc

ludingtiredness, light-headedness, dry mouth and headache” . These symptoms typically appear o

nthe firstworking day after a periodoff work, which could be a weekend or a longer holiday. They

canleadsufferers to call in sick, decide to workfrom home or, if they do show up in the office, com

eacross asdetached(冷漠的) and unavailable. Mondayitis appears to be infecting other days of t

he week.

However, the covid-19 pandemic h s led many people to re-evaluate their work-life balance.

AlawyerinLondon who spends weekends working on cases likes to ease into the formal workweek

with anelegantbreakfastin a fancy restaurant. A broader movement is promoting the idea of a four-

dayworkweek, onearrangement ofwhich would make Monday part of the weekend. Less ambitious

ly, andmore realistically, asocial-mediacampaign for bare-minimum Mondays argues for a gent

le start to theweek.

You may have prepared or merely enjoyed a more elaborate meal than a sandwich. You mayh

avegone for a walk in the park or simply lay in bed. Either way, you almost certainly cleared yourh

ead. When revived andspirited, you will have a fresh start.

B. They may suffer from tiredness or light-headedness.

C. They tend to infect others with their bad performance.

D. They want to come to the office rather than work from home.

34. What can we do to refresh ourselves on Mondays according to the author?

A. Start to work early. B. Grab a quick meal.

C. Take a walk in the park. D. Have a tight schedule.

35. What is the author's purpose in writing the last two paragraphs?
