The OECD concluded that shopping, soaking in the bath, grooming, having a lie-in or taking a long lunch all count as work rather than leisure.

但是你錯了，科學(xué)家稱，周末睡懶覺其實也很難將你在前幾天熬更守夜所失去的睡眠時間彌補回來。

- Now that's a slight lie-- or actually in these days of political debates, a slight misspeaking, a wonderful word-- -- it is technically correct. It is enough to allow us to write any program, but it's not enough to allow us to easily write any program.
現(xiàn)在還有點說謊的感覺,或者在這些強調(diào)政治辯論的日子中，可以說成是有些詞不達意-,這是一個絕妙的形容詞,在語義上是完全正確的，用這種語言我們可以編寫任何程序,但是不能輕松地編寫程序。
