17.The sleep problem is common around the world,even in the developed countries.Studies in the USA have found that 60 percent of the adults often have sleep problems.Among them,more than 20 percent say that they feel sleepy in the daytime and that makes their lives difficult.At least 40 million people in the USA are facing sleep problems that need to be treated,but very few of them actually go to a doctor for advice. Many doctors say sleep can change our health.If we want our bodies to work well,we need sleep.If people don't have enough sleep,they can forget things easily,feel unhappy and develop illness such as the heart problem. The most obvious(明顯的)result of not having enough sleep is to make us weaker and it makes it harder to fight against the illness.In other words,people who do not sleep enough are more likely(可能的)to get sick or ill. So what are the things that are important to sleep?Well,firstly,it's the noise.If there are noises such as barking dogs,dripping taps(滴水的龍頭)or loud music,you will probably find it difficult to sleep.What is interesting is that women seem to notice more than men,while young children do not notice noise so much as adults. If you are sitting on a chair,you will find it very difficult to sleep.But you will probably have no problem falling asleep if you are on a bed.This is another thing that influences sleep.We need to be horizontal(水平的)and we need to have enough space. A third thing is temperature.You may have noticed that you have difficulty sleeping if it is very hot or cold. Altitude can change the way we sleep as well.If you are at an altitude of over 4,000 meters,you need to breathe differently because you don't have as much oxygen(氧氣).It will take you about two weeks to get used to this. All in all,to get a better sleep,you'd better avoid things mentioned above and I strongly advise you to take a warm bath and listen to some light music to relax your body and mind.Most importantly,try not to exercise or use electronic products before going to bed.We hope this advice helps.Sleep well!
