男人在下午6点最大方

　　A woman may not always gets what she wants... but she may stand more chance if she waits until 6 pm to ask for it. This is the time when a man is likely to grant a loved one's wishes, according to a poll。

　　Men should avoid rowing with their wives during the afternoon because a study of people's moods has shown they are likely to lose. That's because 3 pm is the best time for the fairer sex to win an argument, the poll of more than 1,000 men and women found。

　　And when it comes to asking for a pay rise or promotion, a woman would do best not to pounce on the boss when he or she arrives for work in the morning, but to wait until 1 pm. This is the time that managers are likely to be most receptive to employees' demands, according to the poll carried out for pharmaceuticals giant。

　　Women, however, will be glad to know that they are not the only sex affected by 'mood swings', with the male mindset also changing over the course of the day. Some 86 percent of the 1,019 men and women polled said they were aware of regular peaks and troughs in their mood. The findings suggest that by being more in touch with biorhythms, or the body's natural rhythms, we could get what we want more often。

　　Evie Bentley, a psychotherapist with a special interest in biorhythms, said: "Each biorhythm cycle is regulated by the brain, which controls what hormones and how much of each are produced in order to balance bodily functions. A great deal of how a person feels physically, intellectually, and emotionally, is caused by their biorhythms."
