My husband hasn’t stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me. It is funny now but it wasn’t at that time.
Last Friday, after doing all family 36 in town, I wanted a rest 37 catching the train, so I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the 38 coffee shop—that cheap, self–service place with long 39 to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to 40 a place, and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next 41 . It was one of those wild-looking youngsters, 42 dark glasses and worn clothes, and 43 colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did 44 me was that he had started to eat my chocolate.
Naturally, I was unhappy. However, to avoid 45 —and really I was rather 46
about him, I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee, and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me 47 , then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I could
48 believe it. 49 I didn’t dare to make an argument(争论). When he took a 50 piece, I felt more angry than uneasy. I thought, “Well, I shall have the last piece”. And I got it.
The boy 51 me a strange look, then stood up. As he left he shouted out,” This 52 is crazy.” Everyone stared. That was embarrassing（令人难堪的）enough, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready to 53 . My face went red—as red as his hair—when I 54 I’d made a mistake. It wasn’t my chocolate that he had been taking. There was mine, unopened, just 55 my newspaper.

Let’s do some sleep math．You lost two hours of sleep every night last week because of a big project due on Friday．On Saturday and Sunday，you slept in，getting four extra hours．On Monday morning，you were feeling so bright—eyed that you only had one cup of coffee，instead of your usual two．But don’t be cheated by your energy．You’re still carrying around a heavy load of sleepiness，or what experts call “sleep debt”一in this case something like six hours，almost a full night’s sleep．
Sleep debt is the difference between the amount of sleep you should be getting and the amount you actually get．It’s a shortage that grows every time we skim some extra minutes off our nightly sleep．“People get more sleep debt gradually without being noticed，”says William C．Dement，founder of the Stanford University Sleep Clinic．Studies show that such short term sleep lack leads to a foggy brain，worsened vision，and trouble remembering．Long-term effects include obesity(肥胖)，insulin(胰岛素)resistance，and heart disease．A survey by the National Sleep Foundation reports that we’re losing one hour of sleep each night——more than two full weeks of sleep every year．
The good news is that，like all debt，with some work，sleep debt can be repaid．Adding all extra hour or two of sleep a night is the way to catch up．For the long-term lack of sleep， take it easy for a few months to get back into a natural sleep pattern．
Go to bed when you are tired，and allow your body to wake you in the morning(no alarm clock allowed)．You may find yourself catatonic(有紧张症的)in the beginning of the recovery cycle：expect to have ten hours shut—eye per night；As the days pass，however，the amount of sleeping time will gradually decrease．
So earn back that lost sleep and follow the rules of your innate(固有的)sleep needs. You’ll feel better．“When you put away sleep debt,you become a superman,”says Stanford's Dement，talking about the improved mental and physical capabilities that come with being well rested．
