　　Q1:Do you often take short breaks when you’reworking or studying? [Why/Why not?]

　　Yes, I often take breaks when working or studying because it becomes difficult to concentrate after a long-time study. If I were to focus on one task for a long time, I couldn’t perform well. Short breaks can allow me to refresh my mind so that I can handle the task at a high level.

　　refresh [rfre] vt. 恢复精神

　　handle [hndl] vt. 处理 deal with

　　Q2:What do you usually do when you take a break?

　　When I take a break, I usually choose to listen to music to help relax my mind. Furthermore, I always close my eyes and give them a short rest before continuing to work. If it is a relatively long break, I may choose to watch a short TV show or eat something in order to get more energy to return to my work.

　　relatively [reltvli] adv. 相对地

　　Q3:Have you ever had a short sleep when taking a break? [Why/Why not?]

　　Certainly, it is common for me to take a nap when I am having a break. After the nap, I feel more energised and my motivation levels are raised. A power nap can allow me to focus better on the task that I need to accomplish and it will increase my productivity.

　　take a nap 小睡一下，打盹儿

　　power nap 恢复精力的小睡

　　accomplish [kmpl] vt. 完成

　　productivity [prdktvti] n. 生产效率

　　Q4:How do you feel after taking a break?

　　Sometimes, after taking a break, I feel that I don’t want to go back to work and the break is not long enough. But most of the time, taking a break makes me feel more eager to fulfil my work. If the break is too long, I may become very lazy and do not want to do any work at all.
