e As we feel tired at bed-time, it is natural to assume that we sleep
1 because we are tired. The point seems so obviously that hardly
2 anyone has ever sought to question it. Nevertheless, we must ask
3 “tired of what?” People certainly feel tired in the end of a hard day’s
4 manual work, but it is also true that office workers feel equally tired
5 when bed-time come. Even invalids, confined to beds or wheelchairs,
6 become tired as the evening wears on. Moreover, the manual
7 workers will still feel tired even after an evening spent relaxing in
8 front of the television or read a book, activities which ought to have
9 a refreshing effect. There is no proof connection between physical
10 exertion and the need for sleep. People want to sleep, however little
11 exercises they have had. Nor is the desire for sleep relating to
12 mental fatigue. In fact, sleep comes more slowly to people who have
13 had an intellectual stimulating day, just because their minds are
still full in thoughts when they retire. Ironically, one way of sending
someone to sleep is to put him or her into boring situation where
the intellectual effort is minimal.
