英文中各種各樣的“睡法”

睡眠問題已經(jīng)成為很多人困擾的一件事情，睡個(gè)有質(zhì)量的好覺實(shí)在是太難了。生活壓力增大、早起晚歸的生活習(xí)慣，造成人們的睡眠質(zhì)量下降，這樣也造成白天的工作沒有精力。睡到自然醒、睡個(gè)回籠覺，儼然已經(jīng)成為很奢侈的一件事情。

1. 回籠覺：unprotected sleep

什么叫unprotected sleep?字面上理解是無保護(hù)的睡眠或風(fēng)險(xiǎn)睡眠，指的是turning off your alarm clock and immediately going back to sleep; risking not waking up for a job, class, or other daily task. 冒著工作遲到的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)關(guān)掉鬧鐘睡回籠覺，這是不是很多人每天生活的真實(shí)寫照?

I'm lucky that I didn't miss my final exam after having 30 minutes of unprotected sleep。

我真走運(yùn)，睡了30分鐘的回籠覺還沒錯(cuò)過期末考試。

2. 自然醒：wake up naturally without alarm clock

有研究表明早上被鬧鐘吵醒容易造成神經(jīng)衰弱現(xiàn)象，可是試問現(xiàn)在有哪個(gè)人早上不是被鬧鐘吵醒的?當(dāng)然也有鬧鐘吵不醒的筒子們。ditch the alarm clock是需要很大勇氣的!

The second school says you should listen to your body's needs and go to bed when you're tired and get up when you naturally wake up。

另外一種觀點(diǎn)認(rèn)為你應(yīng)該按照你身體的需求，累了之后就睡覺，一覺睡到自然醒。

3. 那些關(guān)于“睡覺”的各種短語：

have a cat nap 打個(gè)小盹 doze off 打瞌睡 have a siesta 午睡

do not sleep a wink 一夜沒合眼 hit the sack 倒頭就睡 light sleeper 睡覺輕的人

sleep around the clock 睡了一整天 caught napping 毫無準(zhǔn)備，措手不及

The neighbors were having a party and we couldn't sleep a wink last night。

鄰居舉行晚會(huì)， 吵得我們一夜都沒合眼。

I told my girlfriend that I'm a light sleeper, and that the slightest disturbance will wake me up。

我告訴我女朋友我睡覺很容易醒，最細(xì)小的動(dòng)靜也會(huì)把我驚醒。
