The short answer is yes.(来源:BBC Future)你有没有想过用你的水瓶喝水会让它变脏?简单来说确实如此。(Source: H. Liu and Q. Liu, 2017, Annals of Civil and Environmental Engineering)With each sip from your water bottle, you introduce more bacteria to it, which can then multiply by the millions within a day.(来源:H. Liu and Q. Liu, 2017, Annals of Civil and Environmental Engineering)每从水瓶里喝一口水,你就会向水瓶中带入更多的细菌,这些细菌在一天内会繁殖数百万。Dr Primrose Freestone from the University of Leicester warns that using the same water bottle for different kinds of drinks will also stimulate the growth of microbes.莱斯特大学的普里姆罗斯·弗利斯通博士提醒称,用同一个水瓶装不同种类的饮品也会促进微生物的繁殖。Even when you leave it aside, the bacteria will still grow over time if there's water in the bottle.即使你把水瓶放在一边不使用它,细菌也会随着时间逐渐繁殖,只要水瓶中有水。(Source: The University of Alabama at Birmingham)Although most microbes aren't harmful to humans, some can cause infections or trigger symptoms. For example, mould found in water bottles can lead to respiratory problems, especially with people who have allergies.(来源:阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校)虽然大多数微生物对人类无害,但一些微生物会导致感染或引发病征。比如,水瓶中发现的霉菌可能引发呼吸系统问题,尤其是对于有过敏症状的人来说。So, how can we take care of our water bottles?那么,我们应该如何清洁自己的水瓶呢?Experts suggest that we should clean our bottles several times a week if we use them regularly.专家建议我们应该每周都清洗几次水瓶,如果我们经常使用它的话。For the best result, use hot water and washing-up liquid when cleaning your bottle. Then, use a brush to clean the inside of the bottle, and leave it for ten minutes before rinsing it with hot water again. Lastly, allow the bottle to air-dry instead of wiping away the water residue.要达到最佳的清洗效果,应使用热水和洗洁精清洗水瓶。先用刷子清洁瓶子内部,接着静置十分钟,然后再用热水冲净。最后,让水瓶自然晾干而不是擦干残留的积水。And remember, if your water bottle starts to smell bad even after washing, it might be a good idea to switch it for a new one.还要记住的是,如果你的水瓶在清洗之后依然闻起来有异味,那换个新水壶不失为一个好主意。

Some people claim it helps with any number of things from glowing skin to weight loss, and are flocking to buy it in gels, gummies, powders and capsules.海藻仅是又一个健康饮食热潮吗?一些人称海藻具有许多功效,比如能使人的皮肤焕发光彩或减轻体重,并且争先恐后地购买海藻制成的凝胶、软糖、粉末和胶囊。Sometimes called Irish moss, sea moss is a red seaweed found mostly along the Atlantic coasts.这种海藻也被称为 “爱尔兰海藻”,它是一种红色的海藻,主要生长在大西洋沿岸。People have been harvesting it for centuries. It's commonly used as a thickener and gelling agent in processed foods like ice cream and chocolate milk.几个世纪以来人们一直在采收这种海藻。它被作为一种增稠剂和胶凝剂而广泛应用于加工食品中,比如冰激凌和巧克力奶。Sea moss is packed with good stuff like iron, magnesium, fibre, and vitamins including A and C.海藻富含多种有益成分,如铁、镁、纤维以及多种维生素,包括维生素 A 和维生素 C。But nutritionists say there's little evidence to suggest sea moss should be called a superfood.但营养学家表示,现有的证据很难证明海藻可以被称为一种超级食物。Some early research has been done. One study on rats found that sea moss helps increase beneficial gut bacteria. But more testing is needed on humans.科学家已经完成了一些对海藻的初步研究。一项在老鼠身上进行的研究发现海藻能帮助提升老鼠肠道益生菌的数量。但要得出结论尚需更多的人体试验。There are a few risks too – sea moss has high levels of iodine, which can cause thyroid problems if you have too much, especially for pregnant women or elderly people. 食用海藻也会带来一些健康风险。海藻含有大量的碘,而食用过多的碘可能会引起甲状腺问题,特别是对孕妇和老年人来说。And like other seaweed, it can also absorb small amounts of heavy metals from the water depending on where it grows.并且和其它海藻一样,这种海藻也会从生长环境中吸收少量的重金属。That could include arsenic, mercury, or lead, which might be harmful if they build up in your body over time.其中可能包括砷、汞或铅,这些元素如果长期在体内积累就可能会对健康造成损害。The advice from health professionals – sea moss is generally fine to eat for most people, but it shouldn't replace a varied diet.来自健康专业人士的建议是,大多数人通常可以正常食用海藻,但它不应取代多样化的饮食结构。

乘坐公共交通时常用的表达
你问我答乘坐公共交通时常用的表达你的浏览器不支持音频元素.内容简介外出旅行时遇到航班或列车延误不免让人感到烦躁,因此在收听机场或站台广播时我们经常要格外注意和公共交通 “public transport” 有关的关键词,避免影响自己的出行计划。本期节目中,主持人 Georgie 和步理回答一位听众提出的关于公共交通的问题,并介绍一些出行时常用的短语动词和单词。文字稿(关于台词的备注: 请注意这不是广播节目的逐字稿件。本文稿可能没有体现录制、编辑过程中对节目做出的改变。)Buli大家好,欢迎收听 BBC 英语教学的 “你问我答” 栏目。I'm Buli.GeorgieAnd I'm Georgie. We've got a question here from one of our listeners.Question感觉乘坐公共交通时的英语交流好难。在询问车辆是否会经停某地或终点站是哪里时,总是会混淆 “stop by”、“get off”、“drop off” 等词组的意思。以及有时候不理解交通标语或广播中常提到的 “delayed”、“suspended”、“transfer” 这样的词汇而错过重要信息。可以帮帮我吗?GeorgieThis is a great, practical question. Lots of people take public transport so it's important to use the right terminology! Let's start with those tricky phrasal verbs.BuliA great place to start! 让我们从和交通有关的短语动词开始吧。首先,短语动词 “stop by” 不常用于 “public transport(公共交通)”,它的意思是 “在到达最终目的地前在某处短暂停留”。人们通常用它来表示 “顺便去一趟某处”。比如,“I'll stop by your house for a quick chat on my way home.(我回家的路上会到你那里聊个天)”。GeorgieThat's right. So don't use it for public transport. Instead, use 'stop' with the preposition 'at'. For example, 'Does this bus stop at the library?' Let's hear more examples.ExamplesIt's a fast train – it only stops at three stations.(这是一趟快车。这趟车只停三站。)The bus stops at all the key landmarks before its final destination.(这辆公交会在终点站前经停所有的重要地标。)Buli“Stop” 是一个在公共交通中十分常见的单词。除了例句中的用法外,“stop” 还可以用作名词,意思是 “站,停靠点”。乘坐公共交通时经常会听到这个词,比如,“bus stop(公交站)”、“next stop(下一站)” 等等。GeorgieExactly. Now, the next phrasal verb is 'get off'. This means to leave the train or bus. The opposite is 'get on' – to enter the train or bus. You could ask your bus driver 'Where should I get off if I want to go to the library?' Let's hear more examples.ExamplesTo get to work, I usually get off the train at Waterloo station.(上班时我通常在滑铁卢车站下火车。)I'm getting off at the next stop – are you coming with me?(我要在下一站下车,你要跟我一起下车吗?)Buli除了 “get off”,和 “off” 有关的短语动词还有 “drop off(送某人到某处)”。“Drop off” 的动作主体通常是火车、公交车或者开车的司机。比如,我们可以说 “the bus dropped me off close to my house(公交车把我送到了家附近)” 或者 “my friend dropped me off close to my house(我的朋友开车把我送到了我家附近)”。GeorgieYes, but be careful with this one. Usually 'drop off' is quite an intentional act, when someone gives someone else a lift somewhere. For example, a parent dropping their child off at their piano class by car. It's not commonly used for public transport, where the drivers don't know the passengers or where they're going. Let's hear more examples.ExamplesThe school bus drops the kids off at school around 8am.(校车八点左右把孩子们送到学校。)Thanks for giving me a lift. Can you drop me off just outside the train station?(谢谢你让我搭便车。你能把我放在火车站门口吗?)Buli接下来让我们学习一些和公共交通有关的单词。“Delay” 和 “suspend” 都和 “延误,晚点” 有关。其中,“delay” 表示 “一班车、船或飞机等延误了。”GeorgieWhereas, if the train is suspended, that means the service has temporarily stopped and we are uncertain when it will continue.Buli没错。“Delay(延误)” 和 “suspend(暂停运行)” 虽然都可以表示 “某班公共交通会比计划好的时间更晚出发或到达”,但 “delay” 通常用于延误的时间比较明确的时候,而 “suspend” 则表示 “造成延误的问题还没有解决,没有一个明确的恢复运行的时间,并且这个班次可能会取消”。来听一组例句。ExamplesAll trains from London to Brighton are suspended due to a fallen tree on the train tracks.(所有从伦敦到布莱顿的火车都暂停运行了,因为铁轨上有一棵倒下的树。)My bus is delayed by 15 minutes, but I think I'll still arrive on time.(我的公交车晚了 15 分钟,但我觉得我还是能按时赶到。)GeorgieLastly, 'transfer'. 'Transfer' can be a verb, but in the context of travel, it's commonly used as a noun – a transfer.Buli是的。单词 “transfer” 在公共交通中通常作名词,意思是 “换乘、转机、接驳” 等等。它既可以指 “在到达目的地前更换交通工具或连续乘坐不同的班次”,也可以指 “换乘不同交通工具或班次的地点或服务等等”。来听一组例句。ExamplesThe travel company has organised specialised transfers between the city's attractions for convenience.(为了方便,旅行社安排了专门在城市的不同景点之间运行的转乘线路。)The airport transfer is a shuttle bus to the city centre which leaves every 15 minutes.(机场有转乘去往市中心的大巴车,每 15 分钟一班。)Buli最后让我们来复习一下吧。本期节目中我们学习了不少和公共交通有关的短语动词和单词。其中,“stop at” 的意思是 “在某处经停”,表示当前乘坐的交通工具在到达终点站前会在某一站短暂停留;“get off” 的意思是 “离开当前乘坐的交通工具,下车”;“drop off” 表示 “交通工具或其驾驶员将乘客送达某一地方”。当一列火车或飞机出现了延误的时候,没有在原定的时间出发或到达,那么它可能是 “delayed” 或者 “suspended”,这两个单词的区别在于 “delay(延误,晚点)” 的班次通常仍在运行,而 “suspended(暂停运行,暂缓发车)” 的班次由于一些原因处于不一定会恢复运行的状态。当我们在抵达目的地前需要连续乘坐不同的交通工具,或乘坐同一种交通工具的不同班次或路段时,我们就需要进行 “transfer(换乘)”。“Transfer” 也可以作名词使用,意思是 “换乘” 这个做法或者 “换乘地点”。GeorgieRemember, if you have a question about the English language you'd like to ask us, please send us an email. Our email address is: questions.chinaelt@bbc.co.ukBuli你也可以通过微博向我们提问。我们的微博账号是 “BBC英语教学”。Bye, everyone.GeorgieGoodbye!

如何用英语表达 “价格昂贵”
你问我答如何用英语表达 “价格昂贵”你的浏览器不支持音频元素.内容简介“高昂的价格” 可以用 “an expensive price” 来表达吗?其实不然:“price(价格)” 通常不和 “expensive(价格高的)” 连用。不过,我们依然可以用 “high(高的)” 或 “steep(过高的)” 等形容词来修饰 “price”。“价格昂贵” 还可以怎么说?听节目,学习 “价格昂贵” 的正确表述方式。文字稿(关于台词的备注: 请注意这不是广播节目的逐字稿件。本文稿可能没有体现录制、编辑过程中对节目做出的改变。)BethHello and welcome to Question and Answer of the Week. I'm Beth.BuliAnd I'm Buli. 本周我们要来回答下面这个问题。 Question在当代英语中,“expensive” 和 “price” 是否可以搭配使用?谢谢!BethSo, let's answer this straight away. If you use 'expensive' and 'price' together, people will know what you mean, but it sounds strange and is non-standard.Buli是的。简单来说,“expensive” 这个形容词本身的意思就指 “贵的,价格高昂的”,所以一般在英语中不需要再把它和 “price(价格)” 连用来表示 “这个价格很高”。因此,如果我们想用英语说 “一样东西的价格太高了”,直接说 “It's expensive” 就可以了。BethSomething a bit longer that would sound a little bit more natural is 'The price of that is so expensive', but it's still not standard and sounds a bit odd.BuliWell, we could say that, but why not look at some other useful expressions? 在想要形容一件商品的价格时,不妨试试下面我们将要分享的这些形容词。 BethThere are other adjectives we can use with 'price' instead of 'expensive'. For example, 'high', 'steep' or 'exorbitant', which means really high.Buli并且这几个词通常都既可以作名词 “price” 的定语,也可以作它的表语。比如,我们可以说 “it's a high price” 或者 “that price is high”,表达的意思是一样的。一起来听两个例句。ExamplesThese jeans are £200. That price is exorbitant. Who would pay that?(这条牛仔裤卖二百英镑。这价格太离谱了,谁会为这条裤子花这个钱啊?) £3,000? That's a high price to pay for such an old car.(三千英镑?这价格对这么一辆旧车来说太高了。)Buli当然,除了这些可以用来修饰 “price” 的形容词之外,“expensive” 也还是常常会被用来形容 “某物价格高昂”。只不过在使用时,通常直接用 “expensive” 搭配我们所说的物品即可。BethYes. So, for example, I would say 'that car is expensive' instead of 'the price of that car is expensive'.Buli我们还可以在连续的两个句子中分别使用 “expensive” 和 “price”,这样既符合这两个单词的习惯用法,也能起到解释说明或强调的作用。比如,我们可以说 “That car is expensive. The price is too high. 这辆车很贵。它的价格太高了。” BethLet's hear an example.ExampleThis house is so expensive. A million pounds! What a crazy price to pay for such a small place.(这栋房子太贵了。要价一百万英镑!这么小的房子卖这么贵的价格简直是疯了。)BethThere are also adverbs we can use if we want to modify 'expensive'.Buli是的。我们也可以用副词来修饰 “expensive”,从而进一步强调某个价格的昂贵程度。比如 “immensely expensive(非常昂贵)” 或者 “enormously expensive(极其昂贵,并且暗示金额十分巨大)”。BethAnd if we think something is far too expensive, we could say it's 'ridiculously' expensive. Let's hear some examples.ExamplesGoing abroad is enormously expensive. Can we really afford that?(出国可是很贵的,要花一大笔钱,我们能负担得起吗?)£10 for a coffee? That's ridiculously expensive!(一杯咖啡卖十英镑?这简直贵得离谱!)Buli最后让我们来总结一下。“Expensive” 和 “price” 通常不连用。但我们可以把它们分别用在相邻的两个句子中进行强调或补充说明。在谈论 “某物的价格高” 时,我们可以用 “high(高的)”、“steep(过高的)” 或 “exorbitant(过分的)” 等形容词来修饰 “price”,也可以用 “immensely(非常,极其)” 或者 “enormously(极其,并且强调数量庞大)” 等副词来修饰 “expensive”。BethRemember, if you have a question about the English language you'd like to ask us, please send us an email.

辨析两个和 “坚强,强韧” 有关的单词:tough 和 resilient
你问我答辨析两个和 “坚强,强韧” 有关的单词:tough 和 resilient你的浏览器不支持音频元素.内容简介一位听众来信询问 “韧” 这个概念可以用哪个词来描述。在日常生活中,我们可以用 “tough” 和 “resilient” 来形容强韧而不易损坏的东西,但它们分别强调了 “强韧” 和 “不易损坏” 两个方面。比如,我们可以用 “tough” 来形容态度、立场、观点等等 “十分强硬”,而不能用 “resilient” 表达相同的意思。听节目,辨析这两个单词的使用要点。文字稿(关于台词的备注: 请注意这不是广播节目的逐字稿件。本文稿可能没有体现录制、编辑过程中对节目做出的改变。)Buli大家好,欢迎收听 BBC 英语教学的 “你问我答” 栏目。I'm Buli.PhilAnd I'm Phil. We have a question from one of our listeners.Question“韧的” 东西,英文怎样翻译?现代汉语词典中 “韧” 的定义是:受外力作用时,虽然变形而不容易折断,柔软而结实(跟 “脆” 相对)。它对应哪个词最合适?PhilSo, the concept mentioned in this question can best be described with two English words: 'tough' and 'resilient'. And they can be quite similar in meaning. Let's look a bit more closely.Buli是的。在英语中谈论 “韧性” 这个概念时,经常使用 “tough” 和 “resilient” 这两个单词。其中,在形容某个物品时,“tough” 指的是 “坚韧,难以损坏”,而 “resilient” 指的是 “能够经受很强的打击而不损坏”。PhilIn practice, we use these words in the same way when talking about how hard-wearing something is. Listen to these examples.ExamplesThis fabric is very resilient – it won't be damaged by the weather.(这种面料非常耐用,它不会被天气损坏。)If you're going to the mountains, you'll need some tough hiking boots.(如果你要去山里的话,你就需要穿双结实的徒步靴。) Buli不过需要注意的是,在形容 “某物十分结实耐用” 时,“tough” 更常见和实用,而 “resilient” 相对更强调技术性,更常出现在对产品的描述或者文章中。PhilNotice that we can use both these words like this to describe people. Someone who is tough or resilient can put up with a lot of difficulties and not let it stop them. Listen to these examples.ExamplesWhen you're starting out in your career, you need to be resilient – lots of people will say "no" to you.(当你在职业起步阶段时,你需要有韧性。因为许多人都会对你说 “不”。)It's a difficult job, but I learned to be tough. Criticism doesn't bother me.(这份工作很难做,但我学会了坚韧不拔。收到批评不会让我受挫。)Buli从上面的例句中我们可以看出,“tough” 和 “resilient” 还可以用来形容人。“A tough person” 指的是 “一个坚强或强硬的人”,而 “resilient” 则可以用来形容一个人 “具有韧性,非常顽强”。PhilWhile both words can mean 'able to withstand force or difficulties', there are other contexts where only one word is suitable.Buli就比如说,当我们在描述食物 “有些硬,嚼不烂” 时,可以使用 “tough” 而不能说 “resilient”。来听一个例句。ExampleThis steak is terrible! It's really tough! I can't eat that!(这块牛排太难吃了!它真的好硬!我可吃不下去!)PhilAnother meaning of 'tough' is 'difficult'. If we talk about tough conditions, we might mean that the weather is bad. Listen to this example.ExampleConditions are tough in the mountains – you need to be prepared.(山区的条件很艰苦,你需要做好准备。)Buli在表示 “困难的,艰难的” 这个意思时,“tough” 还可以广泛地用于形容 “条件、环境或态度等等非常负面,具有挑战性等”。比如,“a tough neighbourhood(一片危险的街区)”、“a tough job(一份有挑战性的工作)”、“a tough stance(强硬的态度或立场)” 以及 “a tough policy(一项强硬的政策)” 等等。来听一组例句。ExamplesWorking as head of sales for a big firm is tough. You really need to put the hours in.(在一家大公司做销售主管实属不易。你必须要把大把时间投入到工作中。)My boss has a tough policy on lateness, she sacked someone for it last week!(我的老板对迟到的政策很强硬,她上周刚因此炒了一个人的鱿鱼!)Buli总的来说,“tough” 和 “resilient” 都可以用来形容 “坚韧,强韧” 等和 “韧性” 有关的含义。其中,“tough” 在日常生活中更为常见,并且还能够用来形容 “艰难的,困难的,具有挑战性的” 事物;它在形容人时指的是 “坚强的,强硬的”。而 “resilient” 则更常用于技术性强的描述中,或者用于形容某人 “坚韧不拔,性格顽强”。PhilRemember, if you have a question that you'd like us to answer, you can email us too at questions.chinaelt@bbc.co.ukBuli你也可以通过微博向我们提问。我们的微博账号是 “BBC英语教学”。Bye-bye!PhilBye!

Nature's giants 自然界的巨大生物
随身英语Nature's giants 自然界的巨大生物你的浏览器不支持音频元素.历史上的动物可真巨大!比如,曾经生活在亚洲地区的巨犀 “Paraceratherium” 比两辆双层公交车叠在一起还要高;体型庞大的巨齿鲨 “megalodon” 和阿根廷巨鹰 “Argentavis” 也分别曾在海洋和天空中遨游。本文介绍除了恐龙之外地球上还曾出现过哪些巨大生物,并浅谈这些生物出现的原因。词汇:animal 动物1 When thinking of giant animals, dinosaurs might be the first creatures you think of. But before the dinosaurs became extinct, and before the first ever humans existed, there was megafauna. In zoology, this means large animals. 2 One of the largest known mammals to have ever walked the Earth is the Paraceratherium – picture a gigantic hornless rhino, and you'll have a rough idea of what they looked like. They lived around 25 million years ago and were most common in areas of the world that are now part of Asia, such as China, India and Kazakhstan. From excavated fossils, these creatures are estimated to have been almost six metres tall – that's the height of two buses on top of each other!3 And it's not just land enormous creatures lived on – they were in the skies and oceans too. The Argentavis is the largest flying bird to have been discovered. It lived until around six million years ago and had a wingspan of seven metres, over twice the size of the Andean condor, which is one of the largest birds on Earth today. And we can't forget the giant shark that roamed the oceans, megalodon. Imagine swimming in the sea and coming across an 18-metre-long shark! Don't worry. They died out around 2.6 million years ago.4 So, why were pre-historic animals so huge? There are a number of reasons. One is that, in the past, resources were more plentiful, so species were able to grow larger because they could eat more. Scientists also believe that during certain periods of history, such as in the Carboniferous period, there were higher oxygen levels on Earth. At this time, some insects grew to the size of cars because of better oxygen delivery in their tracheal system, the network of tubes that enable insects to breathe.5 Can you picture animals being so huge today?测验与练习一、根据文章内容选出正确的段落。1.

Small steps to build long-lasting habits
随身英语Small steps to build long-lasting habits 通过明确的小目标建立长期习惯的方法你的浏览器不支持音频元素.设立雄心勃勃的目标来提升自己,但最终却因为种种现实阻碍而没能完成计划的感觉很糟糕。不过比起苛责自己,何不尝试为自己建立一套系统化的方法来维持好习惯呢?本文浅谈长期坚持好习惯的方法。词汇:habits 习惯1 It's day one of a healthier, smarter, better you. You're full of zest and good intentions. You woke up at 5am to run before work, you read a book in your lunchbreak, and you listened to an English podcast on your commute. Now, fast forward three months. Life is getting in the way, and you've slipped into old habits… snoozing your alarm and eating chocolate for breakfast. Sound familiar?2 Don't be hard on yourself. It's unrealistic to rely on willpower alone. As James Clear, author of the bestselling book 'Atomic Habits', writes, "The problem isn't you. The problem is your system." Our habits come from goals, so start by getting really clear. Goals, according to George T Doran, should be SMART: specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound. It's not enough to say, "I'll exercise more" – that's too vague! A SMART goal would be "I'm going to walk for 20 minutes in the evenings on weekdays." Now you have a clear action that you can stick to.3 Once you're clear on your goals, you need to make the associated habits as automatic as possible. Try 'habitstacking', a technique popularised in the book 'Atomic Habits', which involves attaching a new habit onto something you already do regularly. For example, if you already make coffee every morning, use that moment to read your book for 20 minutes. That way, your new reading habit is now intertwined with something you're going to do anyway. Another key strategy is to reward yourself, to transform the habit from a chore into something pleasurable. If it's hard to get yourself to the gym, promise yourself that after each visit, you'll allow yourself a treat – a takeaway meal or an episode of your favourite TV show.4 Even with our best intentions and a great system, stress and interruptions to your routine like social events can still make keeping habits feel like an uphill battle. If or when you have setbacks, accept it as part of the process. Life is full of spontaneity and uncertainty – one could argue that's what keeps it interesting! Use setbacks as a pause for reflection and review. What about your system is working? What's no longer serving you? Then, get back on track.测验与练习一、将标题和段落配对。Paragraph 1 ________Paragraph 2 ________Paragraph 3 ________Paragraph 4 ________a. Making habits easyb. Hypothetical scenarioc. Giving up on your habitsd.

Naps might not be as good for you as you think
随身英语Naps might not be as good for you as you think 小睡也许并没有你所想得那么好你的浏览器不支持音频元素.不少人会通过午睡来为自己提神或提高注意力。但如果睡得太久或者太晚的话,小睡反而会让人感到更加昏昏沉沉,甚至影响在夜间的正常睡眠。对小睡的依赖还可能代表我们的身体有其它的睡眠或健康问题。本文浅谈小睡对我们身体健康的影响。词汇:sleep 睡眠1 Surely, they're called power naps for a reason? Aren't naps the key to feeling alert, improving your memory and just generally having a great life? Well, they can be, but things aren't quite that simple.2 It is true that a short nap can help people be more alert, improve their memory and concentration, and reduce risks around tasks with heavy machinery. Our circadian rhythms are responsible for the notorious lull that many of us feel in the early afternoon. This is the best time for a nap. Some companies have installed sleep pods for their employees, hoping to benefit from increased productivity and cognitive performance. But it is also true that naps can cause problems.3 Let's start by thinking about the length. A true power nap should be less than half an hour. Any longer, and it becomes hard to rouse yourself from. Any benefits in terms of alertness are likely to disappear with the grogginess that results from a longer period of slumber.4 This isn't the only issue. Naps have been linked to conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure and cardiac problems. However, it's not clear whether these are direct results, or stem from the impact of napping on our sleep habits. If you take a nap after about two or three in the afternoon, it's likely to have a negative effect on your ability to get to sleep at night. Breaking your sleep cycle can lead to bad sleeping habits, which themselves become ingrained.5 Of course, in the same way that naps can lead to bad sleep, it's also true that bad sleep can lead to wanting to take more naps. So, if you find yourself frequently needing to sleep during the day, experts suggest that you consider why that's the case. Are there any potential health issues that could be causing insomnia? Or are work pressures stopping you from getting enough sleep?测验与练习一、将标题和段落配对。Paragraph 1 ________Paragraph 2 ________Paragraph 3 ________Paragraph 4 ________Paragraph 5 ________a.
