(8分)Your third year of middle school was probably a hard and busy time.You may have had trouble getting enough sleep.We all know that not getting enough sleep is bad for our health.But it has been found that less sleep could even make you have fewer friends.
According to some scientists,people who don't get enough sleep may not want to socialize with others.They can be too tired to go out.
The scientists did a small study.They tested 18 young people who had just had a good night's sleep and then tested them again after a sleepless night.During the study,these young people watched videos of people with no expressions walking towards them.When the person on the video got too "close" to them,they pushed a button to stop the video and record how close they allowed the person to get.
The results showed that the young people kept the person at a distance of 60% further if they hadn't got enough sleep.It's because that made them uncomfortable.But with a good night's sleep,they allowed the person to get much closer to them.
According to lead scientist Matthew Walker,the less sleep you get,the less you may want to socialize with others.In turn,other people may think you are strange and stay away.This can make you feel lonely and make you sleep even less.
So if you want to be a more sociable and popular person,sleeping well might help. "One night of good sleep makes you feel more outgoing and confident."Walker shared.
