    When Darius Brown was 8 years old，his elder sister，Dazhai，taught him how to make a bow tie （蝴蝶領結）.At first，Joy worried that he might hurt himself. " He was resolute to learn how to make bow ties，" said Joy. "So he sat and watched Dazhai for months and took it all in.Then he practised and practised.

One day，he made a bow tie out of Ninja Turtle fabric （忍者神龜布料）.He wore the new bow tie to school the next day.His friends wanted such bow ties of their own.So Darius began to make more.

2．Sleep has become a big deal in working life.Thanks to high-profile figures including Arianna Huffington，sleeping is no longer seen as a sign of weakness among competitive colleagues.
   （1）

.A US study has found that in areas where the sun sets earlier，people sleep longer - and this translates into higher earnings.In the long term，just one extra hour of sleep a week increases wages by 4.9%.（2）

.But don't move house - the higher wages correspond almost exactly with higher house prices.Actually，if you want to sleep more，there are better ways to do it than moving house - just buy better curtains.
   （3）

.Each extra hour of sleep should be taken away from working time.So how can sleeping earn you money？The answer is productivity.The biggest effects come through employees who work on commission.If you go to work well rested，you are livelier and happier，and can sell more to increase your earnings.
   Even small amounts of sleep deprivation（缺乏）can have large effects.Another study found that sleeping six hours a night for two weeks produced the same results in cognitive tests as being totally sleep-deprived for up to two days straight. （4）

.If you struggle to get eight hours of sleep a night，a siesta（午休）can have a "reset" effect，and your productivity improves afterward.
   Lack of sleep has already been shown to be worse for productivity than being overweight or underweight.So，why are you still reading this？（5）

.

A.You should go back to bed.
B.But a mid-afternoon nap can help.
C.Therefore，you should get enough sleep.
D.This goes against conventional economics.
E.Research shows that more sleep can lead to us earning more money.
