2.Caroline Woodward wakes each morning to the sound of waves crashing onto the rocks that surround her home,Lennard Island,British Columbia,Canada.
This rocky island is home to a bright white lighthouse with a fire engine red top.Lennard Island's lighthouse has been a fixture of the Western Canadian coast since 1904,when the first wooden lighthouse was built to guide sailors navigating the surrounding waters.
There's been a lighthouse keeper on Lennard Island ever since,and today,that job falls to Woodward,who also writes poetry and children's stories,and her husband Jeff George.
"I think many people have romantic,19th century ideas of lighthouses," says Woodward.Not many of them are correct,she says.
No,she doesn't live in the tower itself - and no,she doesn't have much time to kill.What Woodward does have is a busy,fun,and rewarding role,one she wouldn't trade for the world.
Woodward and George take turns to send a 3:15 a.m.weather report to the local Coast Guard radio.It's the first of seven they deliver each day.They survey the sea and sky from the lookout points.Their routine work also involves maintaining the twelve buildings that make up Lennard Island Lightstation.
The couple work seven days a week - vacations come only when the Coast Guard organizes relief keepers.In between,there's time for tending to the garden,hiking,and keeping watch on the wildlife that populates Lennard Island and its spectacular surrounds.
"We have resident bald eagles,lots of gulls,crows,and water and shorebirds all the year round.We also host Pacific tree frogs and wonderful insects."
There are,fortunately,no bears or wolves,says Woodward.
The wildlife and landscapes provide plenty of inspiration for her writing,too.Woodward has recently finished a novel,which she says was inspired by the stunning surrounds of the North Pacific Ocean.

A.Living in the tower of the lighthouse.

3.Over the past two weeks,I've lost my passport,barked at a neighbor and published a picture of myself wearing a kid's superhero costume.Forgetfulness,anger and poor decision-making are all signs of sleep shortage.
And I'm not alone.
"I average around six hours a night," admits Paul,who's lived in Shanghai for three years. "But how much of that is deep sleep,I don't know."
Lisa works in a hotel. "I struggle to switch off," she says, "a glass of red wine with dinner helps."
March 21 is the World Sleep Day,an annual event in celebration of slumber,or sleep.When sleep problems become a global epidemic (流行病),it's time to ask: "Am I getting enough?"
The lack of sleep throughout industrialized nations is damaging our health,wellness and safety.We're dog-tired,the impact of which is enough to keep anyone up at night.
A global experiment is performed on 1.6 billion people across 70 countries twice a year:daylight savings.When one hour of sleep is lost in spring,there's a 24 percent increase in heart attacks,and in autumn,when the hour is regained,a 21 percent reduction.
Good sleep increases concentration,attention and decision-making.Creativity goes up,and our ability to find novel solutions to complex problems is hugely improved.Sleep reduces mood swings and stress levels.We drink less alcohol and make better food choices when rested.
Take sleep seriously.It's not a luxury (奢侈品),but a biological necessjye.aiy.It's our life-support system and let it be our superpower.
