打卡日记
Day7—— Why do we need sleep?
Is bedtime just a time for dreaming? Do our brains turn off for the night? What if I told you that scientists recently discovered that our brains may be just as busy at night as they are during the day?
【就寝时间只是做梦的吗?我们的大脑会在晚上关闭吗?如果我告诉你,科学家最近发现我们的大脑在晚上可能和白天一样忙碌会怎样呢?】
While we sleep, our brains are doing much more than getting ready for the next day. Researchers at the University of Rochesters found that the brain may be busy cleaning house -- cleaning out harmful waste materials.
【当我们睡觉的时候,我们的大脑所做的不仅仅是为第二天做准备。罗切斯特大学的研究人员发现,大脑可能正忙着打扫房间——清理有害的垃圾材料。】
As with many studies, the reseachers turned to mice for help. They studied mice that had colored dye injected into their brains. They observed the mice brains as they slept and when they were awake. The reserchers say they saw that the brains of sleeping mice were hard at work.
【和许多研究一样,研究人员转向老鼠寻求帮助。他们研究了将染料注入大脑的老鼠。他们观察了老鼠在睡觉和醒着的时候的大脑。研究人员说,他们发现睡着的老鼠的大脑在努力工作中。】
Do you have trouble sleeping? Not being able to sleep is called insomnia. According to the United States National Sleep Foundation, here are some tips for a good night's sleep:
【你有睡眠烦恼吗?不能入睡就叫做失眠。根据美国国家睡眠基金会的数据,这里有一些关于晚上睡眠好的小贴士:】
- Go to bed about the same time each night, even on weekends. This helps to "set" your body's "sleep clock."
【每晚在同一时间上床睡觉,即使是在周末。这有助于“设置”你身体的“睡眠时钟”。】- Exercise every day.
【每天锻炼。】- Have a calm, relaxing bedtime routine - Take a warm bath or drink a hot cup of tea.
【有一个平静、放松的就寝时间——洗个热水澡或者喝一杯热茶。】- Try not to take long naps during the day. Periods of sleep during the daytime can interfere with sleep at night.
【尽量不要在白天打长时间的盹。白天的睡眠时间会影响晚上的睡眠。】- Make sure you have a pleasant environment where you sleep. For most people, a cool, quiet and dark room is best for sleeping.
【确保你有一个舒适的睡眠环境。对大多数人来说,凉爽、安静、黑暗的房间最适合睡觉。】- Avoid using television, computers and other eletronic screens before bedtime.
【睡觉前避免使用电视、电脑和其他电子屏幕。】- Also avoid alcohol, cigarettes and heavy meals before bedtime.
【睡觉前也要避免饮酒、吸烟和暴饮暴食。】
