the correct letter A, B, C or D for your answer.
Night shift
Many people have jobs that are not very interesting, but a lot of people have to work at
night, and this is very difficult. When everybody else is getting ready to go out, they have
to go to work, and this puts a lot of psychological stress on them. It is also not very
healthy because the human body is designed to be active in the day and to rest in the
dark. If this cycle is reversed it can have a bad effect on a person’s health. So, why do
people do night shift. Nowadays many businesses have to offer a 24 hour service, like
hotels, delivery companies, some supermarkets open all night and all day, call centers and
hospitals. It is true that some people only need a few hourssleep at night but the majority
needs eight hours. Humans are most active in the middle of the day, and the time when
they are least able to concentrate and be efficient is between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m. This is the
worst time to drive or to do anything that needs concentration. The body finds it very
difficult to adapt to the opposite cycle. Things are not likely to get better in the future
because more and more business are working 24 hour cycles to keep in step with our 24
hour society.
