Adults who rested for half an hour at least three times a week had a 37 percent       risk of dying from heart disease than those who did not nap.
    The study organizers said the strongest evidence was in working men. They said naps might improve      by mitigating(减低) tension caused by work.
    Some European and Latin American businesses have supported the       of napping for many years. They urge people to      __ work, go home and have a nap before returning. In the United States, some companies let workers rest briefly in their offices. They believe this reduces        and accidents, and       _increases the amount of work a person can do.
    Sleep experts say it is likely that people make more mistakes at work than at other times. They say people should not        important duties when they feel sleepy. And they say the best thing to do is to take a nap. About twenty minutes of rest is all you need. Experts say this provides extra energy and can increase your effectiveness       _ the end of the day. But experts     _that a nap should last no more than twenty to thirty minutes.

    What should you take in with you when you take an exam? Pen, pencil, eraser, ruler…, and don’t forget a bottle of water!
    According to a study at the British Psychological ( 心理学的) Society Annual Conference held in London, students who bring water into exams may improve their grades by up to 10 percent.
    Scientists at the University of East London and the University of Westminster, UK, did a study on 447 students. The students were studying for different degrees (学历) at the University of East London. Only 25 percent of them entered the exam hall with something to drink.
    Scientists then compared their exam results with their normal schoolwork grades. They found that all those who had brought drinks with them got better grades by between 2 and 10 percent.
    It is unclear why drinking water improves exam results. But scientists say having enough water in our bodies and not feeling thirsty could have a helpful effect on our brains. Drinking water may also cut down on anxiety ( 焦虑), which has a bad effect on exam performances, according to Chris Pawson, PhD, of the University of East London.
    “Whatever the explanation, it is clear that students should try hard to stay hydrated (含水的)with water during exams,” he said.
    So next time, when you are going to have a big exam, try bringing a bottle of water with you.Who knows – it may help you pass the exam!

    Scientists in UK did the study on 448 students. The students were studying for different degrees  at the University of East London. Only 25% of them entered the exam hall with water.
