Many
people use the mobile phones as the alarm clocks and are used to checking
e-mails before sleeping.
Many
years ago, my boss stayed up playing on her mobile phone and got badly ill
because of that. Now she always leaves her phone in another room at
night. And she encouraged her friends to do so. "I sent each of my friends
the same Christmas gift-an alarm clock. So they could stop using the phones as
the alarm clocks, "she said.
If
your mobile phone wakes you up in the morning, it may also keep you up at
night. A study shows that people in mobile phone radiation(辐射)mostly have
sleeping problems. And according to a Swedish study, a quarter of young people
in this country feel like having their phones around them. Most of them feel
sorry for not replying to messages. So they even have to reply to their friends
before sleeping.
A
recent study has shown that three quarters of people aged between 18 and 34
prefer to sleep with their phones near them. That number falls off a little in
the middle age, but only people aged 65 and older like leaving the phones in
another room while sleeping.
