Take a break; remainder (4)

I believe the answer is:

rest

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'take a break' is the first definition.
(to have a rest is to take a break)

'remainder' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for rest that I've seen before include "Lie down" , "Surplus" , "Slumber" , "Remainder; be inactive" , "Inactivity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
