1. People from every walk of life need to work harder to make a profit during the period of economic recession. (I wrote it.)
2. People from every walk of life need to work harder to make a profit in economic recessions. (My teacher's version)
Are the two sentences both correct? My teacher said that “during the period of economic recession” is wrong, and it should be “in economic recessions” like sentence 2. However, I looked up the word “recession” in the Yahoo Dictionary, it has such an example-His factory closed down during the period of economic recession. Is my teacher wrong? Is there any difference between sentence 1 and 2? Thanks!
