好的睡眠也是解决问题的途径?

Whenever my kids had trouble juggling school, sports, social life and homework, I seldom thought about sending them to bed earlier as a remedy.
不管什么时候，当我的孩子遭遇学校、运动、社交生活和家庭作业等方面的问题时，我很少会想到让他们早点上床睡觉也是解决问题的一条途径。
　　
That is where I went wrong, based on new research.
从新的研究成果来说，这就是我的错误所在。
　　
Sleep habits have emerged in several studies lately as a far bigger factor in school performance than most people previously believed. Quality and amount of sleep have a big effect on the grades of teenagers and college students, according to two studies reported in Time magazine earlier this year.
从最近几项研究成果来看，睡眠习惯对孩子在学校表现的影响远远超过大多数人此前认为的程度。《时代》杂志今年早些时候公布的两项研究显示，睡觉质量和时间对青少年和大学生的学习成绩有着重要影响。
　　
The way a kid sleeps can even shape grades in specific subjects, such as math, English and history, in different ways.
孩子的睡眠方式甚至会以不同的方式决定着他们数学、英语和历史等具体学科的分数。

'We discovered early with our son that it didn't matter when he went to bed, he was just an early riser. If he didn't get enough sleep, he's not pleasant to be around, either. No brainer. He's keeping his 8 p.m. bedtime for a while.'
“我们早就发现，不管什么时候上床，我们的儿子都会早早起身。不过，要是没睡够，他白天又会过得不开心。解决的办法显而易见，他保持每天晚上八点钟睡觉有好一阵子了。“
　　
'More sleep and more exercise seem to cure most challenges around my house. Cranky kid -- earlier bedtime. Hormonal tween -- two hours' rock climbing + sleeping in late = happier girl. We work really hard to make sure our kids go to bed early. It makes a difference. But, it's so hard -- homework, practice, dinner and playtime all need to be squeezed into a few post-school and work hours.'
“多睡觉和多锻炼似乎能解决我家最头痛的问题。任性的小孩──早点上床睡觉。好动的十来岁少年──两个小时的攀岩＋晚睡觉＝更快乐的女孩。我们非常努力地确保我们的孩子能早上床睡觉。这样很有效果。不过很难做到──因为家庭作业、锻炼、吃饭和游戏时间都要压缩在有限的放学和下班时间之内。”
