　　Sleeping Position Reveals Personality Traits

　　Whether it's curled up in the fetal position, flat onthe stomach or stretched out across the bed, theway people sleep reveals their personality, a Britishsleep expert said. The expert has identified sixcommon sleeping positions and what they mean. "We are all aware of our body language when we areawake but this is the first time we have been able tosee what our subconscious says about us," he said. Crouched in the fetal position is the mostpopular sleep pattern and favored by 51 percent of women, according to the results of thestudy he conducted for a large hotel group. Fetal sleepers tend to be shy and sensitive whilepeople who assume the soldier position, flat on their back with arms at their sides, are quietand reserved.

　　睡姿揭示人的性格

　　一 位英國睡眠專家曾說過: 無論你是像胎兒一樣蜷縮著睡覺, 或是趴在床上睡, 還是四肢伸開平躺著睡, 睡覺的姿勢(shì)揭示了你的性格。該專家歸納了六種常見睡覺姿勢(shì), 以及這些姿勢(shì)的含義?！?醒著的時(shí)候, 我們都知道自己的肢體語言, 但這是我們第一次知道自己的潛意識(shí)在說些什么, ”他說。他對(duì)一家大型酒店集團(tuán)所做的研究結(jié)果表明: 像胎兒一樣蜷縮著睡覺是最流行的睡覺姿勢(shì), 有51% 的婦女喜歡這種姿勢(shì)。采用胎兒式睡姿的人往往比較害羞, 也很敏感; 而采用仰臥、雙臂放在身體兩側(cè)的士兵式睡姿的人則比較安靜, 也不愿說話。側(cè)臥、兩腿伸直、雙臂自然下垂的睡姿稱為原木式睡姿。采用這種睡姿的人喜歡社交活動(dòng), 容易相處。但是如果雙臂伸出, 呈渴望狀, 這種人往往比較多疑。自由式, 即俯臥, 雙手放在頭的兩側(cè), 這是最特別的睡姿。只有6 . 5% 的人喜歡這樣睡, 他們通常性情急躁, 愛社交。謙虛忠實(shí)的聽眾通常選擇仰臥且四肢伸展的海星式睡姿。該專家通過比較人物性格特征、他們喜歡的睡姿和最常見的睡姿歸納出以上這些睡姿。他說人們一旦采用了某種睡姿就很難再改變。
