Usually I sleep for seven to eight hours every night in order to let my body relax. But if I want to do something very important at night, I could, at a push, sleep for less than four hours.

通常我每晚睡七到八个小时，让我的身体放松。但如果我想在晚上做一些非常重要的事情，我可以，在紧急情况下，睡不到四个小时。

Yes, I believe that after having lunch at noon, it’s beneficial to take a nap; half an hour’s snooze would be enough, to brace oneself for the tasks of the afternoon.

是的，我相信中午吃过午饭后，小睡一下是有益的;半小时的小睡就足够了，可以让自己做好下午的工作。

Yes, I guess elderly people do need to sleep more. I believe the reason is that after years of working and stress the natural process breaks down a person’s body until all they want to do is sleep; consequently, their bodies take longer to recharge their batteries.

是的，我想老年人确实需要多睡觉。我认为原因是，经过多年的工作和压力，人体的自然过程会分解，直到他们只想睡觉;因此，他们的身体需要更长的时间来充电。

I believe you have to follow several rules to get a regular good nights sleep. Firstly, go to bed at the same time every night. Choose a time when you normally feel tired, so that you don’t toss and turn. Also, make sure your bed is comfortable so that you can stretch and turn in bed. As well as that, stay away from big meals at night or try to make dinnertime earlier in the evening, and avoid heavy, rich foods before bed.

我相信你必须遵守几条规则才能有规律地睡个好觉。首先，每晚按时睡觉。选择一个你通常感觉累的时间，这样你就不会辗转反侧。另外，确保你的床是舒适的，这样你就可以在床上伸展和翻身。此外，不要在晚上吃大餐，或者尽量在晚上早点吃晚饭，睡前不要吃油腻的食物。

Yes, getting up early in the morning is really beneficial for our health, because we can enjoy the fresh air in the morning; besides we have plenty of time to do some physical exercises liking running and jogging. In the morning I can also prepare a good dinner for the family.

是的，早起真的对我们的健康有益，因为我们可以享受早晨的新鲜空气;此外，我们有很多时间做一些体育锻炼喜欢跑步和慢跑。早上我还可以为家人准备一顿丰盛的晚餐。

Well, I’m afraid that at night I can’t fall asleep in such a noisy place what with barking dogs, loud neighbours and city traffic. This is because I used to sleep in my quiet hometown when I was a kid. So sometimes I envy people who have grown accustomed to environmental noise and can sleep well wherever they lay their head.

哦，我担心晚上在这样嘈杂的地方我睡不着觉，这里有狗叫，邻居吵闹，城市交通拥挤。这是因为我小时候常在安静的家乡睡觉。因此，有时我羡慕那些已经习惯了环境噪音、无论躺在哪里都能睡得很好的人。
