美国大学里的学生打盹区

Students are now able to snooze between classes， as the ASUC has opened several designated napping areas across campus.

加州大学伯克利分校学生会在校园里开设了几个特定的休息区，供学生在课间小睡。

The office held a launch event for these Relaxation Enhancing Study and Tranquility， or REST Zones on Sproul Plaza.

学生会在史鲍尔广场举行了项目启动仪式，希望这种“休息区”能让学生通过放松来提高学习效率，获得内心平静。

“I really want to introduce this new mindset—that its OK to nap and its OK to take a break， especially when so many students at this school are affected by mental health issues，” said ASUC Academic Affairs Vice President Melissa Hsu.

学生会负责教务的副会长梅丽莎·许表示：“我非常希望能普及这种新观念：‘小睡或休息一会儿有益身心，尤其是在当下这种时期——学校的许多学生都面临着心理问题的困扰。”

The REST Zones consist of small areas outfitted with comfortable lounge chairs. The first four zones will accommodate a total of about 15 students at one time， according to Hsu.

小许透露，“休息区”被进一步分隔成更小的区域，并配有舒适的躺椅。最先开放的四个“休息区”一次可容纳约15名学生休息。

“I noticed…that people werent getting enough sleep， and that directly related to their mood，” Hsu said.

小许说：“我意识到……学生的睡眠都不够，这种情况会直接影响他们的情绪。”

According to Maddy Abroms， the director of the REST Zones project， in a survey on wellness， one of the biggest complaints among students is a lack of sleep.

“休息区”项目总监麦迪·阿布拉姆斯称，一次有关健康的调查显示，学生们最常抱怨的一个问题就是缺觉。

One of the sources of funds， the wellness referendum， was passed by the ASUC and allocates funds for student wellness， including mental health. A $54 per-semester fee， included in student tuition， goes toward the Tang Center， the universitys health center， and other mental and physical health services such as the REST Zones.

“健康公投”是资金来源之一。该项目在学生会获得通过，之后就为学生划拨了健康（包括心理健康）基金。学生每学期交纳的学费中，会有54美元被投入到医务中心和“休息区”等其他提供身心健康服务的项目中去。

Students who attended the launch voiced enthusiasm for the REST Zones.

参加“休息区”启动仪式的学生都对该项目表现出了极大的热情。

“The REST Zones are intended for student use and have been placed in locations that are visited primarily by students，” Hsu said.

小许说：“休息区”专为学生设立，这些区域也是学生平常常去的地方。
