And now researchers from Brown University in Rhode Island think they know why. They found that one-half of the brain remains more awake than the other half when people are trying to sleep in a new place.The sleep findings were reported in Current Biology by Brown University. In their report, the researchers said many people report they have a harder time sleeping the first night at a hotel or other places outside their home. They call it first-night influence. In Japan they say, If you change your bed, you cant sleep, said Yuka Sasaki, one of the reports writers. You dont sleep very well in a new place. We all know about it.The researchers measured brain waves (测量脑波) for 35 volunteers over two nights in a laboratory. The two nights were a week apart (间隔). They found during the first night the left half of the brain was more active than the right half. This was during the first deep-sleep period, the researchers said.Sasaki said a lot of questions remain.Researchers did not keep measuring brain waves all night long. So, they dont know if the left half keeps watch all night, or whether it works in shifts (轮换) with the right half later in the night. They also do not know why the brain activity, at least during the first period of deep sleep, is always on the left half.For some, this research may be calming. It is good to know that our brain is looking out for us in a new place. But it may not help with sleep.

How you have trouble sleeping in a new place.C . Why the brain activity is always on the left half.D . What people can do when they cant sleep well.（5）The researchers found during the first deep-sleep period. A . the brain waves remained the sameB . the brain activity helped with sleepC . the right half of the brain kept watchD . the left half of the brain was more active（6）The underlined word calming has the closest meaning to .
