12.If you're having trouble getting good sleep through the night (turning,waking up more than once,for example),this text will tell you what you can do to ensure a peaceful night's sleep.1.Get on schedule.Changing your sleeping time by more than an hour can severely disturb your sleep quality.(36)BFor example,if you normally wake up at 6am on weekdays to get to work,you might go to bed around 10pm,because that's when you start to feel sleepy,and it's also a good time to ensure 8hours of sleep.If,on the weekend,you sleep until 9am,you probably won't be able to fall asleep that night until 1am.
2.Be mindful of what you eat or drink before bed.(37)DDigestion slows down while asleep,and a full stomach may interrupt sleep.Similarly,you should avoid going to bed on an empty stomach,as a completely empty stomach may equally disturb your sleeping patterns.
3.(38)FExposure to light during the time when you're supposed to be sleeping can destroy your body's internal clock.Turn your light off,or use a very dim(暗淡的)night light.(39)G They include windows,LED clocks and computer lights.
4.Change your sleeping position.You may think that it's impossible to control what position you sleep in since you aren't fully aware of what you are doing,but it is possible and it can make a considerable difference.(40)A
A.If you wake up at midnight,make an effort to have a comfortable position.
B.In other words,sudden change of sleeping time will affect your"biological clock".
C.Sleep is considered to be enough only when there is no daytime sleepiness.
D.Wait at least three hours after dinner before going to sleep.
E.Make note of unusual circumstances.
F.Keep the room as dark as possible.
G.Try to avoid all sources of light.
