Sleep is a natural part of human life, but many people in the modern world dont realize its very important. As a result, sleep problems are quite common.In 2011, scientists at the University of Athens in Greece did a survey of over 35,000 people in 10 countries around the world, including China, Belgium and South Africa. Among the people, 24 percent said that they did not sleep well, 31.6 percent were diagnosed (诊断) with insomnia (失眠). In addition, 30.7 percent of them have visited doctors for help with sleep problems and 11.6 percent said that they felt very sleepy during the day.The survey found that many people suffer the effects of poor quality sleep, some even cant fall asleep and often wake up in the middle of the night. The main reasons of the problems are pressures (压力) from school or work and a fast pace (节奏) of life, but noise pollution and light pollution also affect sleep and cause poor quality sleep. The survey also found that large numbers of people find it hard to sleep at night. The short term effects of this are tiredness and trouble concentrating (专心). If this happens for a long time, the risk of gaining weight and having a heart attack may increase.There are many things you can do to improve the quality of your sleep. First, you should have regular sleep habits. Try to go to bed and wake up around the same timeeach day. You also need to make your bedroom a cool, dark, quiet place to sleep so that heat, light and noise do not disturb you. At night, you should also avoid things that contain caffeine, such as chocolate, coffee, tea and many soft drinks, as caffeine may keep you from sleeping.Getting a good nights sleep is important for everyone.
