TEST OF ENGLISH
Text:
According to a recent medical research, sleeping more than nine hours or less than six hours a night can shorten your life. Those who are likely to live longest are people who regularly get between seven and eight hours a night. A new survey of 1.000 adults conducted by the Better Sleep Council found that few people understand the important role sleep plays in normal daily brain functions and many people actually reduce their brain power by getting too little sleep. One in three adults admit that they do not get enough sleep, and lack of sleep is leaving millions of people without the energy to work as hard as they should.
