Q

Structure :

For much of the past two decades Wenger’s long project to create a new model for club football across England and Europe – one in which self-sufficiency is paramount, the realm of the financially possible has real limits, and creativity is defined by the negotiation of material constraints – appeared doomed. The war for the sport’s soul was lost. Football had been sold out to sovereign wealth funds, gas barons, and private equity buffoons, all those Abramoviches and Mansours and Al-Khelaifis clapping unsmilingly from on high while their expensively assembled squads nightsticked hapless opponents into the dirt. The future, seemingly, belonged to the wealthy.

Difficult:

My morning alarm remained a horror. I’d get up, drink coffee in the backyard, shivering in the gloomy winter dawn. But I gradually saw improvements. My hypnic spasms – those involuntary muscle contractions as your body transitions from wakefulness to sleep, experienced more frequently by insomniacs – started to lessen. I had fewer false starts. The biggest improvement was the flattening of my sleep into larger chunks – fewer middle-of-the-night wakeups – which is why the treatment is called sleep consolidation.

A

我早上的闹钟依然很恐怖。 我起床后在后院喝咖啡,在阴沉的冬日黎明中瑟瑟发抖。 但我的情况逐渐有所改善。 我的过度痉挛–失眠症患者在从清醒状态转入睡眠状态时经常出现的肌肉不自主收缩–开始减轻。 我失眠的次数也减少了。 最大的改善是我的睡眠变得更加平整–半夜醒来的次数减少了–这就是为什么这种疗法被称为睡眠巩固疗法。
