Junk sleep damaging teenagers' health
英语阅读是考研英语的重头戏，怎么复习?怎么训练?建议同学们采取英语朗读的方法每天练习10-20分钟，快速提升英语的阅读能力和听力水平！Teenagers are damaging their health by not getting enough sleep because they are distracted by electronic gadgets in their bedrooms, according to a survey.
UK advice body The Sleep Council said "junk sleep" could rival the consumption of unhealthy junk food as a major lifestyle issue for parents of teenage children.
Its poll of 1,000 youngsters aged 12 to 16 found that 30 per cent managed just 4 to 7 hours sleep as opposed to the recommended 8 or 9 hours.
Almost a quarter said they fell asleep more than once a week while watching TV, listening to music or using other electronic gadgets
"This is an incredibly worrying trend," said Dr Chris Idzikowski of the Edinburgh Sleep Centre.
"What we are seeing is the emergence of Junk Sleep - that is sleep that is of neither the length nor quality that it should be in order to feed the brain with the rest it needs to perform properly at school."
Nearly all the teenagers had a phone, music system or TV in their bedroom, with around two-thirds possessing all three.
Almost one in five of the teenage boys said the quality of their sleep had been affected by leaving their TV or computer on. The survey also found that 40 percent of youngsters felt tired each day, with girls aged 15 to 16 faring the worst.
However just 11 percent said they were bothered by the lack or quality of sleep.
"I'm staggered that so few teenagers make the link between getting enough good quality sleep and how they feel during the day," Idzikowski said.
"Teenagers need to wake up to the fact that to feel well, perform well and look well, they need to do something about their sleep."
听力和书面表达通常是我们学生的弱项，希望大家在英语朗读的方法下，并结合实际情况安排练习，不要一味模仿别人，要在练习过程中及时总结经验，包括时间安排等，让自己的考研英语水平得到一个很大的提升！
