17、y to do so,“ the physician said.Nearly 30 years ago, Dr. Atiq founded the Arkansas Cancer Clinic in the community of Pine Bluffto make cancer care available for the economically disadvantaged.

18、 that his patients, needs were always his top concernnot their ability to pay.Dr. Atiq knew all too well the huge financial pressure often faced by patients. Although he wished all of his patients could simply focus on recovery from disease, many were simply not in a position to-even if they had ins

25、se public awareness about cancer.Researchers at the Harvard Medical School have been looking at how sleeping and dreaming affect the way we perform certain tasks. Previous research has already shown that a person who has a nap (小睡)after learning a task will be able to complete the task better when t
26、hey wake up than a person who doesnt sleep. Now it has been revealed that if the person dreams about the task while they are asleep then they will be able to perform it even better.For instance, if a student stays up all night to revise for an exam then he or she wont do as well as a student who com
27、bines their study with sleep. But the student who will do best in the exam is the one who sleeps and dreams providing the dreams are related to what he or she is learning.The time we are asleep is divided into different periods. These periods are known as REM (rapid eye movement) sleep and NREM (non
28、-rapid eye movement) sleep. During REM periods our dreams are more vivid and intense and easier to remember when we wake up. Brain activity is also higher.According to Associate Professor Robert Stickgold, a memory and dream researcher at the Harvard Medical School in Boston, there9s convincing evid
29、ence that when we dream, the brain is making connections that help us learn what we have been learning previously.Its possible that in the future some courses will include short sleeping periods as part of the learning process. The power nap is now an established practice in the professional world e
30、ven if its frowned upon in some cultures. Its only a matter of time before a short sleep is common while studying. And if our dreams can be controlled to relate in some way to what we are learning then our learning potential will increase even more.We know that we cant live without sleep. But the re

34、because our brain is making connections.D. The benefits of the power nap lack scientific evidence.It may be the holiday season, but the spirit of peace and goodwill has not infected the streets of Los Angeles. More drivers seem to be rolling through stop signs and running red lights than ever before
35、. Everyone seems to be in a terrible hurry.Why is everyone in such a hurry? Where are they rushing to?I think perhaps the answer lies in answering this question: What does that round of parties and meetings and mad rushing from place to place allow all of us to avoid confronting? I think the answer
36、is clear-ourselves.There is an experiment where subjects had to choose between being alone with themselves and their thoughts for approximately 15 minutes and receiving electric shocks. The majority chose the shocks reflection of how painful, frightening, threatening, confusing, boring (!), you name
37、 it.we find being alone with just ourselves and our thoughts.Our desire not to be with our innermost thoughts is so great that we create and find distractions. In the car, we can make phone calls or listen to music. We live in a world of endless opportunities for distraction.I understand the desire.
38、 Life is hard. Growing is a painful slow process. To keep moving requires determination and strength- and giving up seems So much easier (as do those electric shocks!). We may win some battles, but the war is never over. Sometimes we are just too tired to fight and just need that music or that book
39、to relax. I just instinctively turn on the radio when I get in the car, I dont even give the quiet a moment to sink in.But its time fbr a reality check; otherwise, we slip into an avoidance mode. Ifs challenging. But let s take a change. Instead of rushing from house to car to meeting to groceries t
