In the 1986 America’s Cup sailing race, a tugh cmpetitin unflded between the United States team and the Australian team.
The Australian team had wn the race multiple times befre. Determined t take back the trphy(奖杯), the US team gathered plentiful capital and tp sailrs. They even designed a high-speed sailbat, making their gal f winning clear. When the race started, the US team tk the lead right away. By the time they were just fur nautical miles (海里) frm the finish line, they were already three nautical miles ahead f the Australian team. It seemed victry was within their grasp.
Hwever, the wind directin at sea suddenly changed at this critical mment. The US team was nw faced with a tugh chice: shuld they adjust (调整) the sail angle? Yu see, there are tw types f wind at sea — gusts and cyclnes. If it was a gust, adjusting the sail wuld be the right mve.

A 14-year study f ver 90, 000 adults presented at the Eurpean Sciety f Cardilgy Cngress has revealed that “catch-up sleep” n weekends can reduce heart disease risk by up t 20%.

The prtective effect was mst dramatic fr the 20% f participants classified as sleep-deprived— thse getting fewer than seven hurs nightly during weekdays.
