Despit occasional alarms, the country escaped any postwar depression and lived in a state of boom. A n economic survey of the year 1955, a typical year of the 1950’s, may be typical as illustrating the rapid economic growth of the decade. The national output was value at 10 percent above that of 1954 (1955 output was estimated at 392 billion dollars). The production of manufacturers was about 40 percent more than it had averaged in the years immediately following World War 2. The country’s business spent about 30billion dollars for new factories and machinery. National ine available for spending was almost a third greater than it had been it had been in 1950. Consumers spent about 256 billion dollars。 that is about 700 million dollars a day ,or about twentyfive million dollars every hour , all round the clock. Sixtyfive million people held jobs and only a little more than two million wanted jobs but could not find them . Only agriculture plained that it was not sharing in the room. To some observers this was an ominous echo of the mid1920’s . As farmer’s shre of , marketing costs rose.

But at about age 15 or so, the men voluntarily began cutting down their nightly sleep time because of , work, and other activities. These men tended to view their nightly periods of unconsciousness as bothersome interruptions in their daily routines.In general, these “short sleeps” appeared ambitious, active, energetic, cheerful, conformist(不動(dòng)搖) in their opinions, and very sure about their career choices. They often held several jobs at once, or workers fullor parttime while going to school. And many of them had a strong urge to appear “normal” or “acceptable” to their friends and associates.When asked to recall their dreams, the “short sleepers” did poorly. More than this, they seemed to prefer not remembering. In similar fashion, their usual way of dealing with psychological problems was to deny that the problem existed, and then to keep busy in the hope that the trouble would go away.The sleep patterns of the “short sleepers” were similar to, but less extreme than, sleep patterns shown by many mental patients categorized as manic(瘋?cè)?.The “l(fā)ong sleepers” were quite different indeed. Baekeland and Hartmann report that these young men had been lengthy sleeps since childhood. They seemed to enjoy their sleep, protected it, and were quite concerned when they were occasionally deprived of their desired 9 hours of nightly bed rest. They tended to recall their dreams much better than did the “short sleepers.” Many of the “l(fā)ong sleepers” were shy, anxious, introverted (內(nèi)向), inhibited (壓抑), passive, mildly depressed, and unsure of themselves (particularly in social situations). that sleep was an escape from their daily problems.1.
