They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time — about eight hours after you wake up — your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern（ 模式 ） . They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later. In many parts of the world, people take naps in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer（ 遭受 ） less from problems such as heart disease. Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap — even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful. ( )61.

We sat and talked about how the first day we met seemed like yesterday. We soon realized that we had been blessed（ 赐予 ） with three healthy years of marriage, a home, college education and jobs. We also realized that time does not slow down for anyone. Later that day we were on our way to a family event. As we pulled into the local gas station, I noticed a woman sitting all alone at a piic table. It was around 30℃ , but she was dressed in a winter jacket and long pants. As we pulled out from the gas station, I told my husband that I needed to go home and take something first. I had such an anxious feeling that I needed to do something to help the poor woman at the gas station and without saying anything, he understood. I told my husband that I had to take something before we left and that I would be back soon. He was able to understand everything even if he knew that we would be late. As I pulled back into the gas station, I got out of the car and walked to the woman. Then I sat down with her. She asked me if I’d like to give her something to eat because she didn’t eat anything that day. I agreed, and for over an hour and a half I sat there with her, a proud mother and wife who lost her family a few years ago. She was once a school teacher who found joy in educating the youth of our nation, but was unable to return to work after the accident. Those days she often sat with family at that very piic table. She and her daughter often played card games at the table, while her husband and son fished in the river right down the hill. We shared smiles and tears. Not only did I help this woman, but she also helped me realize that every moment is such a priceless gift and that in a short time of an eye, everything can change. Make sure that you hug your beloved ones today! ( )66. From the first paragraph we can infer that。
