I finally gathered my courage one day when we were having a picnic, and popped the question. I also gave my wife a big tourist pamphlet about Switzerland

30、. I wasnt taking any chances. She said no. It killed me. I felt sick to my stomach. I lost my appetite. Our dog just stared at me, thinking, “If youre not going to eat your lunch, I will.“ Finally, I said, “But the Switzerland trip is yours if you say yes. “Switzerland,“ she said, “is filled with pr

31、ecise, humorless people.“ “Maybe I should have suggested Paris?“ For a minute it seemed as if my change in travel plans would rate a solid “maybe“. But she said no again. When we woke up the next morning, she told me that shed slept on my proposal. “I guess I was a little rude to you last night,“ sh

32、e explained. Meanwhile, Im figuring Im off the hook for this marriage thing for at least another eight years. I could afford to be generous. “I asked, you said no. Its okay,“ I said. I might have looked a little too relieved because later that day she gave me a little box. Inside was a gold watch. O

33、n the back was inscribed. “Yes.

Were taught that we should get seven or eight hours a night, but a lot of us get by just fine on less, and some of us actually sleep too much. A study out of the University of Buffalo reporte

38、d that people who routinely sleep more than eight hours a day and are still tired are nearly three times as likely to die of stroke-probably as a result of an underlying disorder that keeps them from sleeping soundly. Doctors have their own special sleep problems. Residents are famously short of sle

39、ep. It is not unusual for them to work 40 hours in a row without rest. They are not in the least worried about it, confident they can still deliver the highest quality of medical care. But an article in the Journal of the American Medical Association points out that in the morning after 24 hours of

40、sleeplessness, a person s motor performance is comparable to that of someone who is drunk. Curiously, surgeons who believe that operating under the influence of alcohol is grounds for sacking often dont think twice about operating without enough sleep. “I could tell you horror stories,“ says Jaya Ag

41、rawal, president of the American Medical Student Association, Which runs a website for residents. Some are terrifying. “I was operating after being up for over 36 hours,“ one writes. “I literally fell asleep standing up and nearly planted my face into the wound.“ “Practically every surgical resident

42、 I know has fallen asleep at the wheel driving home from work.“ writes another. “I know of three who have hit parked cars. Another hit a Jersey gate on the New Jersey Expressway, going 105km/h.“ “Your own patients have become the enemy,“ writes a third, because they are “the one thing that stands be

43、tween you and a few hours of sleep.“ The U.S. controls the hours of pilots and truck drivers. But until such a system is in place for doctors, patients are on their own. If youre worded about the people treating you or a loved one, you should feel free to ask how many hours of sleep they have had an

Th

49、e word “like“ is the advertisers equivalent of the magicians use of misdirection. “Like“ gets you to ignore the product and concentrate on the claim the advertiser is making about it. “For skin like peaches and cream“ claims the ad for a skin cream.
