Why do you think people in general sleep less now than before?


Nowadays, people sleep less than years ago and we must sleep seven or eight hours per night if we want to protect our health.

On the one hand, there are some reasons related to our past. One of the reasons is that in the past, people worked more than now and for this reason they were more tired. Another reason is that now, we often work until late and as a result we sleep less.

On the other hand, at present we have modern technology such as televisions, radios, computers which entertain us. In addition, today we have electrical lighting and for this reason we usually go to bed when we want to. Also, our present society goes out and does new activities as well as going to parties, going on holiday…

In conclusion, I think that people sleep less than in the past and it is worst because we should protect our health, however, we do more activities than before and we are not so bored as years ago.

  1. True. Stress is becoming more and more usual in our lives. As a consequence, people are feeling more tired, but I think it is a real situation nowadays. (Eli’s comment)
