Last summer，I began the biggest adventure（冒险）of my life．I moved from a tiny city in England to one of the largest cities in the world．

As the plane landed in Beijing，I （61）　　（feel） excited﹣I finally arrived after months of planning!One of the first things I did was to visit one of the city's hutongs．Strolling（闲逛）around the hutongs，the warm air was filled with the smell of delicious food．I was amazed to see that many people （62）　　（ride） their old﹣fashioned tricycles （老式三轮脚踏车）．Just at this time，I thought，"Wow，I'm in China．"

Beijing is very different from my home city，Preston．Preston has only one shopping street and on Sunday，all the shops close at 4：00 pm．There （63）　　（not be） much choice when eating out，either．As a fan of food，I couldn't wait （64）　　（see）what Beijing can offer．

But after I have tasted so many kinds food here，I still don't have a favorite dish yet．I（65）　am　still happily （65）　　（look） for my favorite through the city's restaurants．

I am slowly getting used to the different way of life，but I still find some habits here quite strange and humorous．

British people （66）　　（tell）not to make any kind of bodily noise at the dinner table when they are still children，so it is a funny culture shock （冲击）to hear the loud noise of Chinese diners．

Since I came here，I （67）　　（discover） something else interesting．As a foreigner，I always draw people's attention．On the subway or in streets and restaurants，I always find some people staring （盯着看）at me and （68）　　（try） to take secret photos of me．It seems that I am a famous person or a popular star．

In the future，I（69）　　（go）to many other parts of China．I hope I（70）　　（travel） from one end to the other of this beautiful country，taking photos and meeting new people along the way．

My adventure in China is only just beginning，and I wonder how it will be．

Beyond its influence on health， not getting enough sleep can lead to car accidents or other mistakes． Here are what sleep researchers have found about how to sleep．

How much sleep do we actually need？

It is known that all of us naturally need no less than eight hours of sleep per night． When we sleep below six hours per 24， we're at an increased risk of health problems． Some of us think we can make up any of those hours lost during the week on the weekends． Sadly，there is no storage system for sleep in the brain．

Can we train ourselves to need less sleep？

As a study in 1964， a 17﹣year﹣old boy named Randy Gardner stayed awake for 264 hours． How many people could do anything close to that without dying？

When you are reading this， you might say you usually get six hours of sleep and feel just fine． Sleep experts often compare people without enough sleep to drunk drivers： They don't get behind the wheel thinking they're probably going to kill someone．

Can we drink coffee instead of sleeping？

Coffee can keep us awake． Remember， too much coffee may throw off our sleep and energy cycles． So limit coffee and avoid caffeine for four to six hours before bedtime．

Does a sense of purpose connect to sleep quality？

A new research suggests a kind of strong connection between purpose in life and sleep． People who have a greater sense of purpose usually have better physical and mental health， which in turn explains their higher﹣quality sleep． Perhaps developing a sense of purpose in life could be as useful at improving sleep as the healthy habits above．
