    We all know that a good night's rest helps us stay healthy. After we sleep for 7 or 8 hours in bed and {#blank#}1{#/blank#} up next morning, our mind is better prepared to memorize and learn something.

    But what about getting a rest during the middle of the day?

    Doctors also say, “If you have trouble falling asleep at {#blank#}8{#/blank#} , take a daytime nap for less than 45 minutes and don't nap after 3 p.m. in the afternoon.

    But I still paid {#blank#}3{#/blank#} attention(注意) to him. I went on talking with my friend. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Jack could not wait any longer.
