What happens if you don't get enough sleep? Randy Gardner,a high school
student in the United States,wanted to find out.He designed an experiment
on the effects of sleeplessness for a school science project.With doctors
watching him carefully,Gardner stayed awake for 264 hours and 12
minutes.That's eleven days and nights without sleep.
What effect did sleeplessness have on Gardner? After 24 hours without
sleep,Gardner started having trouble reading and watching television.The
words and pictures were too blurry (模糊).By the third day,he was having
trouble doing things with his hands.By the fourth day,Gardner was
hallucinating(产生幻觉).For example,when he saw a feet sign,he thought it
was a person.He also imagines he was a famous football player.After the
next few days,Gardner's speech became so slurred(不清楚)that people
couldn't understand him.He also had trouble remembering things.By the
eleventh day,Gardner couldn't pass a counting test.In the middle of the
test he simply stopped.He couldn't remember what he was doing.
Then Gardner finally went to bed,he slept for 14 hours and 45 minutes.The
second day he slept twelve hours,the third night he slept for ten and one-
half hours,and by the fourth night,he had returned to his normal sleep
schedule.

sleep gerous.They say that people should not repeat Randy's
experiment.Tests on Gardner have shown how serious sleeplessness can
be.After a few weeks without-started losing their fur(皮毛).And even though
the rats ate more food than weight.Eventually the rats died.
