If so,it's very possible that you won't be able to sleep well at night,according to a new study from the National Sleep Foundation in the US.
The study shows that the use of electronics,such as TVs and cell phones,before bedtime increase the chances of a bad night's sleep.
Researchers say that the light from those electronics at night may make you excited before you go to bed.Then it's hard for you to get enough sleep.
According to the survey,about 95percent of Americans between the ages of 13and 64use electronics before bed.They have their eyes on a TV screen,a laptop or a cell phone within an hour of bedtime at least a few nights a week.
Among them,more and more young people-especially those under 20-are using cell phones and laptops right before bed.
So,what's the key to eight hours of sleep each night?
Besides regular exercise,and following a regular sleeping schedule(时刻表),researchers strongly advise you to turn off cell phones,TVs,and all other screens,as soon as the sun goes down.
Too hard?Then at least turn them off a few hours before bedtime.

However,there are different kinds of stress.Some kinds of stress are good and others are bad.Good stress might happen when you are called to answer questions in class or when you have to give a speech in public.This kind of stress can help you to get things better done.For example,you may do a better job on your test if the stress pushes you to prepare better before the test.
On the other hand,bad stress can happen if the stress lasts too long.You may not feel well if a family member is ill,if you are having problems at school,or if anything else makes you unhappy every day.That kind of stress isn't going to help you.And it can actually make you sick.
The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life.Make sure you keep yourself in mind:Sleep,Exercise,Leisure(休闲),and Food.If you get enough sleep and eat healthily,and if you exercise and leave time to have fun,you will feel less stressed.
