　　An ancient, traditional remedy for insomnia—the scent of lavender flowers—has now been proved effective. In a recent study, 30 volunteers with chronic insomnia slept each night for three weeks on lavender-scented pillows in a controlled room where their sleep was monitored electronically. During the first week, volunteers continued to take their usual sleeping medication. They slept soundly but wakened feeling tired. At the beginning of the second week, the volunteers discontinued their sleeping medication. During that week, they slept less soundly than the previous week and felt even more tired. During the third week, the volunteers slept longer and more soundly than in the previous two weeks. Therefore, the study proves that lavender cures insomnia within a short period of time.

　　There is now evidence that the relaxed pace of life in small towns promotes better health and greater longevity than does the hectic pace of life in big cities. Businesses in the small town of Leeville report fewer days of sick leave taken by individual workers than do businesses in the nearby large city of Masonton. Furthermore, Leeville has only one physician for its one thousand residents, but in Masonton the proportion of physicians to residents is five times as high. Finally, the average age of Leeville residents is significantly higher than that of Masonton residents. Thesefindings suggest that people seeking longer and healthier lives should consider moving to small communities.

　　The following appeared in a memo to the board of directors of Bargain Brand Cereals.

Although the companies producing the top brands have since tried to compete with us by lowering their prices and although several plan to introduce their own budget brands, not once have we needed to raise our prices to continue making a profit. Given our success in selling cereal, we recommend that Bargain Brand now expand its business and begin marketing other low-priced food products as quickly as possible."

In fact, only about 2 percent of customers have complained, indicating that an average of 98 people out of 100 are happy with the change. Furthermore, many servers have reported that a number of customers who ask for butter do not complain when they are given margarine instead. Clearly, either these customers do not distinguish butter from margarine or they use the term 'butter' to refer to either butter or margarine."

　　In an attempt toimprove highway safety, Prunty County last year lowered its speed limit from 55to 45 miles per hour on all county highways. But this effort has failed: thenumber of accidents has not decreased, and, based on reports by the highwaypatrol, many drivers are exceeding the speed limit. Prunty County shouldinstead undertake the same kind of road improvement project that Butler Countycompleted five years ago: increasing lane widths, resurfacing rough highways,and improving visibility at dangerous intersections. Today, major Butler Countyroads still have a 55 mph speed limit, yet there were 25 percent fewer reportedaccidents in Butler County this past year than there were five years ago.

　　The following appeared in a memo from a vice president of Alta Manufacturing.

　　"During the past year, workers at our newly opened factory reported 30 percent more on-the-job accidents than workers atnearby Panoply Industries. Panoply produces products very similar to those produced at our factory, but its work shifts are one hour shorter than ours. Experts say that fatigue and sleep deprivation among workers are significant contributing factors in many on-the-job accidents. Panoply's superior safety record can therefore be attributed to its shorter work shifts, which allow its employees to get adequate amounts of rest."

　　【翻译】在过去，Alta工厂的工伤事故比邻近的Panoply工厂多30%，Panoply的每班工作时间比我们的短一个小时。专家相信导致很多工伤事故的重要因素就是工人的疲劳和睡眠不足。因此，为减少Alta的工伤事故数量并提高生产数量，我们应该把我们的三个班次的工作时间每个都减少一小时，从而我们的雇员将有更充足的睡眠。
