如何拥有良好的睡眠质量
How was your sleep last night? Sleep is important for health. How can we have healthy sleep? Take a look at some advice.
Wake up naturally
Waking up to a ringing alarm is never fun. Studies show that when you get shocked by the alarm, your breathing will go up, your heart will have more beats and your blood pressure will rise.
“This is a very unhappy way to start the day,” sleep scientist Whitney Roban said. “You’ll feel worse if you go back to sleep a few more minutes. It’s important to follow your body’s natural sleep - wake cycle(循环).”
So what should we do? Try to use an alarm with softer and lower sounds. Or leave a crack（缝隙）in the curtains（窗帘）—the rising sun will wake you up.
Sleep early and get up early
Some young people may go to bed late and get up late, such as sleeping from 2 am to 10 am. They think as long as they have eight hours of sleep, everything will be fine.
But in fact, our bodies can tell time. They use light and temperature to do so. If we wake up too late, our bodies might feel stuck between sleep and being awake. That’s why sometimes we feel even more tired after oversleeping.

沟通交流是如何影响一个人的身心健康的?
Many of us have learned that chatting with a friend, relative or classmate can improve our mood（心情）. And failing to communicate with others can also affect the health of our minds and bodies.
Now experts in the US have found that a good conversation just once a day could be enough to boost people’s happiness and lower their stress levels.
The researchers looked at five types of conversation that past research has found to make people feel closer. These included things like sharing jokes, listening to others’ opinions, discussing recent experiences, offering real praise and showing care for others. The researchers asked over 900 people at five US universities to have one of these five types of conversation each day. Then these people reported how their chats affected their stress, well - being and other feelings that day.
The researchers also looked at how the number of daily chats affected the people’s well - being. And they found that while one good chat was enough to improve someone’s mood, those who chose to have more of these conversations had better days. “This means the more that you listened to your friends, the more that you showed care, the more that you took time to value others’ opinions, the better you felt at the end of the day,” one of the researchers said.
The researchers also said that meeting for a chat was better for people’s well - being than using a phone or social mediums(媒介).

( )3. What can we infer(推断) from the researcher’s words in Paragraph 4?
