This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hour

31、s when you labour through your work you may say that you're “hot”. That's true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak(頂峰).For some people the peak es during the forenoon. For others it es in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered

32、why this is so, but it leads to such familiar words as :“Get up, John!

Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean

33、, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can't change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract(對抗)your cycle by staying up later than

This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam(拿出干勁) and work better at your low point. Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a yawn(呵欠)

35、 and stretch (伸懶腰). Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Whenever possible, do routine(常規(guī)的) work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours. 72If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably.
