What happens to a man who does not sleep? Peter Tripp decided to find out. He went without sleep for 200 hours. After 30 hours he found that his eyes began to play tricks on him. Chairs seemed to move by themselves. The floor looked like it, too, was moving. After about 100 hours Tripp could not do simple things. He could not remember the alphabet. After 150 hours he had trouble remembering his name. After 200 hours he went to sleep. When he woke up, he felt fine.
    如果一個人不睡覺會怎么樣?Peter Tripp決定查出真相。他共堅持了200個小時沒睡覺。30小時后他發(fā)現(xiàn)他的眼睛開始玩他,椅子會自己動,好像地板也是一樣在移動。大概100小時的時候,Tripp連簡單的事都不能做,他連字母表也記不起來。過了150小時,他想自己的名字都有問題。過了200小時,他就睡了。當他醒了的時候,他感覺還好。
