things you might have been told about sleep but aren’t completely true.

你可能听说过的有关睡眠的事，这些都不是完全正确的。

You’re Either a Morning Person or a Night Owl (and Morning People Are More Productive)

你要么是个早起的鸟儿，要么是个夜猫子（且早起的人效率更高）

Most people think of themselves as either morning“larks”or night owls, but there’s more to sleep cycles than that.

大多数人都认为自己不是早起的鸟儿就是夜猫子，但睡眠周期不只是这些。

People have different energetic times during the day that aren’t necessarily tied to our preference for sleeping late or getting up early.

人们一天之中精力充沛的时间各不相同，与喜欢睡得晚一点或早一点关系并不大。

And you know that saying“the early bird gets the worm”? While our society—the workplace and school systems—seem to reward morning people, night owls can be just as productive and creative as their counterparts.

你知道有句俗话叫“早起的鸟儿有虫吃”吗？我们的社会——工作单位和学校，似乎都鼓励早起，但是夜猫子可以像早起的人一样高效且富有创造力。

In fact, doctors say schools should start later in the day for the health of students,who aren’t getting enough sleep. (I’d be up for later workday start times too.)

实际上，医生说现在的学生睡眠不足，学校应该把上学的时间推迟一点，这样有益于学生健康。（我觉得也应该把上班的时间推迟一点。）
