Five Minutes
5分钟
Most people dream, which is something people know, but did you know that you will forget about 50% of your dream within 5 minutes of waking. This means you have 5 minutes to jot down everything that happened in your dream so you can talk about it later or base your latest work of art on it.

Weight by Sleep
睡觉有助于减肥
This one is pretty strange, but getting a sufficient amount of sleep can help you lose weight. This happens because sleeping reduces your appetite by a whopping 45 percent, which makes a big difference if you are trying to lose or maintain your weight. Make sure you turn off the lights, keep the temperature in your room cool, and get comfortable sheets to promote good sleep.
这个事实有点怪——睡眠充足有助于减肥。因为睡眠过程中，人的食欲会降低45%，如果你想减肥或控制体重，睡觉的作用可谓相当之大。想要睡得香甜，记得睡前关灯、保持室内凉爽、铺上令人心安的床单。

Keep in mind that sleeping well means sleeping a full eight hours and always sleeping at the same time every night.
充足的睡眠促进血液循环，有助于控制情绪和食欲。一项研究表明：睡眠充足可延年益寿，这并不是什么新鲜事儿了。记住哦：睡得好意味着睡足8小时，且每晚都在同一时刻入睡。
