If yu land in India anytime in late February r March, it’s wise t check the dates f the annual Hli Festival and bring a spare set f clthes.

The rigin f the Eastern culture is mainly frm tw cuntries: China and India. Bth f the tw cultures were develped by rivers—the Yellw River in China and the Indus River in India. They helped the tw cultures develp fr centuries and frm their wn styles.
When the tw mther rivers gave birth t the Eastern culture, anther famus culture was up n the Mesptamian Plain—the Mesptamian Civilizatin.

Hw much sleep d we need? It’s a fundamental questin abut a basic human functin we’ve been practicing fr a lng time, but there’s still n simple answer. But whether yu’re a mrning r evening persn culd be guided by yur genes. That is, yur sleeping pattern will change naturally with age, which is als reflected in the recmmendatins f the Natinal Sleep Fundatin: it suggests 14—17 hurs f shuteye a day fr newbrn babies and nly 7—8 hurs fr ver-65-year-lds.
But scientists said it was abut mre than simple duratin. Teens and peple in their early 20s d want t g t bed later and get up later t. Smething might have t d with changing hrmnes(荷尔蒙). “On average, there’s abut a tw-hur difference in preferred sleep times between peple in their late teens r early twenties and peple in their late 50s r early 60s,” he said. “S asking a teenager t get up at 7 ’clck in the mrning is the equivalent f asking a 55-year-ld t get up at five in the mrning.”
At the end f the day, the best way t measure hw much sleep yu need is t listen t yur wn bdy. D yu rely n an alarm clck t wake up? Des it take a lng time t feel awake? Are yu dependent n cffee drinks t keep yu fcused during the day? Are yu verly impulsive(易冲动的) r d yu find yurself running a lt f traffic lights, fr instance? All these culd be signs that yu’re nt getting enugh sleep.
And that, we knw tday, is bad. The envirnment can affect yur sleep preferences but yur genes stay. Scientists said that the understanding f the imprtance f sleep was “ne f the great achievements f mdern neurscience(神经科学),” and that sciety was mving frm the all-nighter culture t respecting the need fr sleep.

A.Nt getting enugh sleep.
B.Listening t yur wn bdy.
C.Running a lt f traffic lights.
