3. Lời giải chi tiết

Partner 1: Do you get enough sleep? If not, why not?

Partner 2: Honestly, I don't get enough sleep most of the time. The main reason is that I have a hectic schedule with work and other responsibilities. I often find myself staying up late to finish tasks or caught up in various activities, leaving less time for sleep.

Partner 1: I can understand that. It's challenging to find a balance between our commitments and getting enough rest. It's important to prioritize sleep for our overall well-being.

Partner 1: How do you feel if you don't get enough sleep? What things are more difficult to do?

Partner 2: When I don't get enough sleep, I feel tired, groggy, and lacking energy throughout the day. My concentration and focus suffer, making it difficult to stay productive and perform tasks efficiently. Simple things like making decisions or solving problems become more challenging.

Partner 1: I can relate to that. Lack of sleep definitely affects our cognitive abilities and overall functioning. It can be frustrating when even basic tasks seem more difficult due to tiredness.

Partner 1: Do you use gadgets such as mobiles late at night? What for? Do you find that they keep you awake?

Partner 2: Yes, I tend to use my mobile late at night, mostly for entertainment purposes like watching videos or scrolling through social media. Unfortunately, I find that using gadgets before bed does keep me awake. The bright screens and stimulating content can make it harder to relax and fall asleep.

Partner 1: That's a common issue. The blue light emitted by screens can interfere with our natural sleep patterns. It's a good idea to limit gadget use before bedtime to promote better sleep.

Partner 1: When are you most alert? Are you a 'lark', an 'owl,' or in between the two? Explain your answer.

Partner 2: I would say I'm more of an in-between. I don't naturally wake up extremely early like a lark, but I also don't prefer staying up very late like an owl. I find that my alertness peaks during the late morning and early afternoon. That's when I feel most energized and focused.

Partner 1: That sounds similar to my pattern too. It's interesting how our energy levels and alertness can vary throughout the day. It's important to understand our own rhythms and schedule tasks accordingly to make the most of our productive times.
