21、 sleep specialist at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine , “Theres even a pronibition (禁止 ) against admitting we need sleep”. Nobody wants to be caught napping or found asleep at work . To quote a proverb : “Some sleep five hours , nature requires seven , laziness nine and wickedness(淘
22、气的 ) eleven.” The way not to fall asleep at work is to take naps when you need them . “We have to totally change our attitude toward napping ,” says Dr. William Dement of Stanford University , the godfather of sleep research .

34、ds and sometimes even sell toxic(有毒的 )chemicals . Distressed individuals range from students worried about poor grades to people in debt as wellas disgraced politicians .
