He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During hours when you labor through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. Time of you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No ore haswhy this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (独白) as: “Get up, John! You’11 be work again!” Much family quarreling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better Habit can Kleitman believes.

The less water in the mix, the less the finished shrink. The less water used, the harder and more enduring the job after it has set.The amateur concrete worker is annoyed with two desires. One is to use enough water to have concrete nice and soft and easy to push around. You have been warned against that. The second off the wooden forms too early, to see what the job 1ooks like. That is really fatal. If the forms stripped off too soon, while the concrete is still “green”, two things are likely to cause a major defect in the body of the work. An excellent rule is to wait until you are sure the concrete is hardened, and then wait another day before removing the forms.The best title for this passage would be ________.A.
