People who sleep fewer than six hours a night are more likely to die early, researchers have found in a study they claim provides 'unequivocal（明确的） evidence' of a link between sleep deprivation（缺失，剥夺） and premature death.
**** Hidden Message *****
They discovered that people who slept for less than six hours each night were 12 per cent more likely to die prematurely - before the age of 65 - than those who slept the recommended six to eight hours a night.
**** Hidden Message *****
The team from the University of Warwick and Federico II University Medical School in Naples analysed 16 studies involving a total of 1.3 million people before reaching their conclusions.
**** Hidden Message *****
They pointed out that previous studies had shown that sleep deprivation was associated with heart disease, high blood pressure, obesity, type 2 diabetes（）糖尿病, and high cholesterol（胆固醇）.
**** Hidden Message *****
However, the researchers also found that sleeping too much was linked to an early death.
**** Hidden Message *****
Those who slept for more than nine hours a night were 30 per cent more likely to die early, the research published in the journal Sleep found.
**** Hidden Message *****
That directly contradicts research published in the same journal last week which suggested that people who slept for ten hours or longer a night were more likely to live to 100.
**** Hidden Message *****
[color=red]This was thought to be because people who lived into extreme old age were healthier and therefore slept better.
[/color]**** Hidden Message *****
However, the authors of the latest research contradicted(否定) this and suggested that long sleep was a sign of underlying（潜在的） illnesses such as depression and low levels of physical activity. Some cancer is also associated with sleeping for longer.
**** Hidden Message *****
Professor Francesco Cappuccio, leader of the Sleep, Health and Society Programme at the University of Warwick and Consultant Physician at the University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust, said: [color=red]"Whilst short sleep may represent a cause of ill-health, long sleep is believed to represent more an indicator of ill-health.“
[/color]**** Hidden Message *****
"Modern society has seen a gradual reduction in the average amount of sleep people take, and this pattern is more common among full-time workers, suggesting that it may be due to societal pressures for longer working hours and more shift-work. [color=red]On the other hand, the deterioration of our health status is often accompanied by an extension of our sleeping time.
[/color]**** Hidden Message *****
"Consistently sleeping six to eight hours per night may be optimal for health. The duration of sleep should be regarded as an additional behavioural risk factor, or risk marker, influenced by the environment and possibly amenable（有责任的） to change through both education and counselling as well as through measures of public health aimed at favourable modifications of the physical and working environments."

This was thought to be 不会翻译
尽管睡眠时间短导致身体不健康，但是睡眠过长被认为是身体不健康的表现
另一方面，健康状况的恶化经常伴随着睡眠时间的延长。 很不错，谢谢。 [b]回复 [url=http://bbs.tingroom.com/redirect.php?goto=findpost&pid=742219&ptid=411224]3#[/url] [i]dafee[/i] [/b]

第一个“This was thought to be” 很容易啊，就是个被动语态，“这是由于···”。
第二句有点点瑕疵，可能是你这个“indicator”的意思你不太了解所以没有把它意思翻译出来？
第三句很不错，非常确切。
继续加油哦，看好你。:qq88] 很好，谢谢分享。
