69. Babies sleep about eighteen hours a day.Mrs. Thatcher and Napoleon both said they only needed to do it three or fourhours a night. Sleep. No one can live without it. But how much do we reallyneed?

Research by the National Sleep Foundation inWashington says that we all need eight hours' sleep every night. Scientistshave found that people who sleep for less than six and a half hours a night aremore often ill than people who sleep for eight hours. Going without sleep alsoincreases the chance of serious illness. Workaholics（工作狂） who sleep for less than five hours often dieyoung, and do less well at work.

The scientists found that adults usuallysleep for seven hours a night, with 32% sleeping less than six hours.

It also says that the idea that we need lesssleep as we get older is completely untrue. “People have no idea how importantsleep is to their lives,” Dr. Thomas Roth, director of the Foundation says. “Goodhealth needs good sleep.”

“But not too much of it,” saysProfessor Jim Horne of Loughborough University. “Sleep is like food and drink,”he believes. “You would always like to have a little bit more, but that doesn'tmean you need it.” Professor Horne studied a group of people who could spend asmany hours as they wanted in bed, after ten hours they didn't find it anyeasier to get up in the morning. And people who sleep for more than nine hoursa night die younger than people who usually sleep for seven or eight!
