聽力每日練習(xí) listen 806 Get?to?sleep

1--Alex, what’s up with you? You look dreadful!

2--Hey， Jill, I don’t know. I’ve been having trouble sleeping these past few weeks. I usually lie in bed for hours trying to get to sleep . I’ve tried stretching and different breathing techniques before going to bed . I’ve tried eating and not eating different foods. I’ve even tried counting sheep! And then when I finally get to sleep , I have these really disturbing nightmares, so I usually wake up in a panic and more tired than before I went to sleep .

1--Wow, maybe you should get that checked out. Maybe you’re stressed?

3--Just take some sedatives! Works for me! Every so often having some melatonin on hand helps me when I have trouble sleeping . It works on all kinds of sleeping disorders . It’s the stuff pilots use to regulate their sleeping patterns.

1--I heard of that. But does that apply to Alex’s situation?

3--Ya sure, why not ? Sounds like he only has transient insomnia since it’s a recent thing so taking melatonin do the trick.

1--But shouldn’t he be looking into WHY it’s been happening?

3--Well，aren’t you the little psychologist? Our buddy’s having trouble sleeping , it’s easy and curable. It’s not something freakish like if he was a sleepwalker.

2--Well, there’s that， too.

譯文：

1--Alex你怎么了？你看起來臉色不好。

2--Jill你好。我不知道。過去的幾個星期我睡得很不好。我總是早早躺在床上準(zhǔn)備睡覺。在上床錢我試著伸展和嘗試不同的呼吸技巧。我嘗試著吃東西而且并不吃很多樣的食物。我嘗試過數(shù)綿羊。當(dāng)我最終入睡時，我總是做惡夢，所以我總是驚恐地醒來，比入睡前更疲勞。

1--也行你應(yīng)該去就檢查下。也許你感到壓抑？

3--指服些鎮(zhèn)靜劑。確實有效。當(dāng)我睡眠有問題是，我總是吃些褪黑激素幫我入睡。它對各種睡眠紊亂都有效。它是來限定睡眠時間的領(lǐng)頭羊。

1--我聽過那種藥。Alex的狀況適合用這種藥嗎？

3--當(dāng)然，為什么不會呢？聽上去他只患有短暫的失眠癥，因為最近他才遇到問題，所以服用褪黑激素會管用。

1--他不應(yīng)該調(diào)查下失眠的原因嗎？

3--你不就是心理醫(yī)生嗎？我們兄弟有睡眠問題，但是容易治愈。如果他沒有夜游癥，這個問題并不奇怪。

2--說得也是。
