Medical experts say most Americans do not get enough sleep. They say more
Americans need to take a nap-that is to rest for a short period in the middle of
the day. They give people advice to sleep a little before going on with other work.The
experts say naps might improve health by reducing pressure（压力）.

Some European and Latin American companies（公司） agree with the idea of
napping for many years. They ask people to leave work, go home and have a nap before
going back to work. In the United States, some companies let workers rest simply
in their offices. They believe this can help workers make fewer mistakes and do more
work.

Experts say it is likely that people make more mistakes at work than at other
times. They say people should not do important work 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 can increase（提高） your efficiency（效率） until the end
of the day. But experts said that a nap should last no more than twenty to thirty
minutes. A longer nap will put the body into deep（深度） sleep and waking up will
be difficult.

26. This passage is probably taken from
A. a story book B. a poster
C. a science D a medical magazine
