Many parents like twins(双胞胎) a lot. For many years, people think that twins have a secret language. A lot of parents of twins say that their children have a secret way of talking to each other by using some words they don't understand. "The twin language" was very special in people's minds for a long time. However, a study shows that twins hardly have secret languages. So why do people think that?

When babies are learning to speak, they often make sounds and their parents don't understand them. For example, a child may call a bottle "baba". Since twins are learning the language at the same time, they often make the same mistakes. So, if one of the twins calls a bottle"baba", the other possibly starts to do the same. Soon, the twins are using the same inaccurate word. Parents may think of this as a secret language. In fact, the twins are learning new words like any other child.

A study shows that true secret languages don't happen very often. It happens because babies spend a lot of time alone and don't have many people talking around them.

Some studies show that it often takes longer for twins to begin speaking than for non-twin children. This could be because parents of twins can be busier than parents with just one baby, so they don't have much time to spend with their twin babies. Because twins understand each other's language mistakes, it may take them longer to learn words right.

As twins get older, like many non-twin children, they may make secret words for things they don't want their parents to understand!

① A survey(调查) has shown that lots of people can't sleep well. Sometimes you feel tired when you wake up. You may have a headache and you feel like you could sleep for another three hours. Many things around us cause sleeplessness. Here are a few changes you can make to improve your sleep.

②Go to bed and get up at the same time. You may share the same bedroom with your sister or brother. You both must go to bed regularly(规律地) so that you don't trouble each other.

③Clean up your bedroom. A study from a university in Zhengzhou found that people with clean bedrooms usually sleep better than those with dirty and untidy rooms.

④ Get more house plants. Studies show that house plants help with reducing (减轻)stress. Also, plants such as lavender(薰衣草) and gardenias(栀子花) have smells that may help some people relax and sleep better.

⑤ Make your room dark. When light hits your eyes, it tell you not to fall asleep. In fact, we need darkness especially in the evening. So if you want your body to know that it's time to rest, turn off the lights about an hour before bedtime or wear eye masks. Your phone and your TV should also be thought of. You may also use the dark curtaıns(窗帘) to keep any outside light from going into your bedroom.

⑥Lower your bedroom temperature. The body becomes cooler at night, so lowering the temperature before bedtime can help you relax and fall asleep more quickly. The NationalSleep Foundation in a country says your bedroom should be about 16 ℃ to 19℃ for a good night's sleep.
