Decodeing(解码) nighttime sleeping patterns
When we wake up feeling sleepy and with dark circles under eyes, many of us often think: \chances are that we don't stick to our promise.
This behavior is called \procrastination(拖延症)\and results from lack of self-control and our body clock, reported HuffPost.
According to a study carried out by a group of health psychologists at Utrecht University in the Netherlands in 2014, bedtime procrastination is a common problem. In their study, 53 percent of the 2,400 participants said they didn't follow their sleep schedule, delaying it at least twice a week.
It's found that they delayed bedtime not because they liked to stay up late, but they couldn't stop doing other trivial(琐碎的) things, which were keeping them up in the first place.

\who generally have trouble resisting temptations(诱惑)and adhering(坚持)to their intentions are also more likely to delay going to bed,\a psychologist at Utrecht University, further explained to HuffPost.
Yet, according to scientists, lack of self-control is not the only thing to blame. Our body clock also plays an important role when it comes to bedtime.
In order to check the influence of the body clock on sleep, psychologists at Ulm University in Germany studied the sleep patterns of 108 people in February. It was found that those who get up late are more likely to postpone their bedtime than those who wake early every morning.
And more surprisingly, night owls would go to bed late at the very beginning of the weekday, even though they had to get up early for work and school. It's their special body clock that plays a part in delaying their bedtime, reported Popular Science.
\intention to go to bed earlier is not enough,\Jana Kuhnel, a psychologist at Ulm
University, concluded in Popular Science. \processes need to support this intention.\problem, but as Kroese told
Popular Science, \be pretty important for our health.\

【答案】Dear Mike,
I have received your letter and I have known that you feel at a loss, not knowing how to learn Chinese well. Needless to say, it is a difficult task for many people to learn a foreign language well. Here are some tips on how to learn Chinese well. For a start, I suggest that you should spend more time practicing listening and speaking Chinese as often as possible. Then I think it is very useful to watch a couple of Chinese films or TV series every week to get your Chinese improved. Thirdly, I think you may try to sign up for some contests, for instance, the Chinese character dictation competition. The valuable experience is beneficial to you.
I am sure only if you practise a lot can you master it. Complete mastery demands continued learning. I wish you great success and rapid progress in learning Chinese.
