Different people need different amounts of sleep. Eight hours a night is considered the average amount of sleep. For teenagers， the least number of sleeping hours advised by doctors are： ten hours for primary school students， nine for junior high students and eight for senior high students.

Some people seem to get along just fine with very little sleep at night. Leading American scientist Thomas Edison said that sleep was a waste of time. He did， however take naps during the day. On the other hand， Albert Einstein， another great scientist， said he needed at least ten hours' sleep a night.
