2015年12月英語(yǔ)四級(jí)翻譯練習(xí)題：睡眠

　　【翻譯原文】

　　我們的身體夜晚需要休息，白天需要清醒。大多數(shù)人每晚需要8到8.5個(gè)小時(shí)的睡眠才能正常運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)。找到更多的時(shí)間、更好的睡眠方法可能是個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)。科學(xué)家已經(jīng)確認(rèn)了80多種不同的睡眠紊亂癥(sleep disorders)。有些睡眠紊亂癥是遺傳的。但是，許多睡眠紊亂癥是由于熬夜，經(jīng)常跨時(shí)區(qū)旅行以及上夜班而引起的。

　　【參考譯文】

　　Our bodies want to sleep at night and be awake during the day. Most women and men need between eight and eight and a half hours of sleep a night to function properly throughout their lives.Finding ways to get more and better sleep can be a challenge. Scientists have identified more than 80 different sleep disorders. Some sleeping disorders are genetic. But many problems are caused by staying up late and by traveling frequently between time zone or by working nights.
