"I'm going to bed earlier tomorrow! "But no matter how we decide， there are still many chances that we break our promises．

This behavior is called" bedtime procrastination"（睡眠拖延症）， and results from being short of self﹣control and our body clock．

Bedtime procrastination is a common problem． According to a study， Among 2， 400 people， 53 percent of them couldn't follow their sleeping time they had planned， delaying（#fE R ）it at least twice a week． They delayed bedtime not because they liked to stay up late， but they couldn't stop doing some other things．

Accordingly， People who usually have trouble resisting temptations（抵制诱惑） and adhering to their intentions（坚持己见） are more likely to delay going to bed．

However， scientists think being short of self﹣control is not the only problem． Our body clock also lays an important role when it comes to bedtime．

In order to check the influence of the body clock on sleep， scientists studied the sleep patterns （t模式）of 108 people． It was found that those who got up late are more likely to delay their bedtime than those who woke up early every morning．

And more surprisingly， night owls（夜猫子）would go to bed late at the very beginning of the weekday， even though they had to get up early for work and school． It's their special body clock that plays a part in delaying their bedtime．

People always think that bedtime procrastination isn't a big problem， but the choices we make that affect （影响）our sleep could finally be pretty important for our health．

I remember when I was growing up， my mom always said， "Half the fun of doing anything is sharing it with others．" It's so true． Friends allow us to enjoy the taste of our success and our joys and comfort us in our challenging moments． They provide a mirror for us to learn more about ourselves． I have always looked at friends as the family members． They enrich our lives． As Robert Louis Steven once said， "A ① 　 friend 　is a present which you give yourself．"

To be a good friend， ② 成为一个年的听众是很重要的．Hear what your friend says first rather than making conclusions （结论） quickly． Sometimes it is useful to repeat their words back to them， it can help them to realize whether their words were what they wanted to say．

Patience is also important in being a good friend． You know the old golden rule． "Care for others in the way you would like them to care for you．" The support of a friend during a difficult time could make a difference between success and failure． ③ Encouragement is the best gift that can change a person's life ．

We should choose our friends carefully， because they can have a huge influence in our life． As someone told me "Your friends are like the button （按钮） on a lift． ④ Sometimes they will take you up ， sometimes they will take you down ．"

There are many reasons why I encourage people to travel，and I know that the experience will make one a better person．

I remember when I was traveling，I began to know the world better．The world is not just about me，my small town and home．Although you will meet different people from all over the world，you will realize that people are similar in their dreams， hopes and feelings．Enjoy exploring（探索）the different cultures，and you will also find that people are different in some of the things they do and how they live．Once you understand their ways，it will not be strange or scary（吓人的）．Often we read stories about other cultures in books．Only when we visit their areas，do we find that those stories are something wrong．

One thing you may find out is that there are problems all over the world．We can't just get money to send to these areas and hope that will work them out．The world should get involved（干预）and help wherever there are problems．People everywhere should be given a chance．It is so easy to ignore（忽视）this if one does not travel or explore．One can look around and see that so many people have many challenges（挑战）worse than ours．One can realize that sometimes our biggest problems are not that big after all．

On your journey you will meet lots of new friends．Talking to strangers and finding about their lives is a great way to spend your time．You will certainly be more confident after having to deal with problems and make many decisions along the way．

When you travel，you have to be on your own in some situations．You will surprise yourself by how well you can do that．All your special experiences could make an interesting book to read．It would be filled with your special memories．
