Question

Task
Read the text, find out the main idea of the text and highlight argument, reasons and facts.
Sleep is important. Nobody fully understands why we need it, but scientists think that the
body uses the time to recover and to repair damage. When we fall asleep, our heart and breathing
rates slow down, muscles relax and our senses rest. If this is the case, are you giving your body
enough rest?
Lack of sleep means that the body and brain do not work properly. If you do not go to bed
at a reasonable time, you will be sleepy in class and not learn so much. Tiredness means you may
not be able to think clearly, and you may be a danger to other people. Accidents can happen. You
will lack energy, and even playing becomes too much of an effort. Is staying up late really worth
it?
