Taking a short break during work helps in what?

Correct answer: Giving rest to the body

The direct answer is C, giving rest to the body. During continuous work, muscles, joints, eyes, and attention can become tired. A short, well-timed break interrupts that strain. Step by step: work causes physical or mental load; a pause allows posture to change, muscles to relax, eyes to look farther away, and attention to recover; the worker can then return with better comfort and concentration. Option C is correct. Option A is wrong because a suitable short break generally helps reduce, not increase, fatigue. Option B is wrong because rest can support attention rather than automatically reduce it. Option D is wrong because a planned pause does not spoil work; it may prevent errors and unsafe actions. A break should not mean abandoning duties: it should be brief, safe, and arranged according to the task. Stretching gently and drinking water may also help when appropriate. Memory cue: pause to recover, then work better.
