Many Japanese working people are afraid of (2)burning themselves out, especially in Tokyo. If You ride a commuter train during rush hour on a beautiful sunny morning, you can see sullen and exhausted faces. The Japanese government announced that it will subsidize companies that will raise productivity in 2017.
I don’t blame them, but in what way? Is it possible to accurately evaluate and measure it?
When I (1)bumped into a public insurance worker, (his face (4)rung a bell but I couldn’t remember his name) he recommended our company to immediately implement some process to be eligible to the subsidy. In my opinion, this kind of policy and subsidy reminds me of the famous proverb; It’s better to teach how to fishing than give a fish.

title: Try to raise productivity. But In what way?
Many Japanese working people afraid of (2)burn out themselves, especially in Tokyo. If You can ride a commuting train in rush hour of the beautiful sunshine morning, You can see already too exhausted sullen faces. Japanese government announced that to give subsidy a company which will raise productivity in 2017.
I don’t blame it. But in what way? Is it possible to evaluate appropriately?
When I (1)bumped into a social insurance labor, (his face (4)ring a bell but I don’t remember his name) he recommended our company to procedure immediately some subsidies. Because the government will be (3)butt in on it suddenly if their budget will burn out. In my opinion, this kind of policy and subsidy reminded me this famous proverb; It’s better to teach how to fishing than give a fish.
homework:
(1)bump into: Meet by accident or unexpectedly.
(e.g) “Rafael bumped into his English teacher at the supermarket.”
(2)burn out:
(2-1)Stop (something) working.
(e.g)”These electric bulbs seem to burn out more quickly than the old ones.”
“The lawn mower has broken down. I think the motor has burnt out.”
(2-2)Become exhausted from too much work or stress.
(e.g)”Tom will burn himself out if he doesn’t slow down and stop working such long hours..”
(3)butt in (on): Interrupt impolitely.
(e.g)”It’s rude to butt in on a conversation.”
(4)ring a bell: If something rings a bell, it is vaguely familiar to you, but you can’t remember the exact details.
(e.g)John Bentley? The name rings a bell but I don’t remember him.
