In 1971 there was a war in a part of Nigeria called Biafra, in western Africa. People were dying, children were hungry and there was a lot of disease. There were thousands of people who needed medical help—but there were no doctors or nurses to help them. Some doctors from France went to work there as volunteers, and some of them decided to start an organization to help the people in disasters all over the world. That was when Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) was born.
The organization's headquarter is in Geneva(日内瓦), Switzerland. It is nonpolitical, which means that no government controls it. About 90% of the money that MSF needs comes from personal donations. The rest comes from governments and business. MSF helps everyone. It doesn't matter what their race, religion or politics are. Since it started, MSF has helped people all over the world. The disaster might be war or an earthquake, anything that means people need medical help.
MSF has about 3，000 volunteer doctors in nearly 60 different countries. These__volunteers__not__only__give__people__treatment,__but__also__help__to__train__local__doctors__and__nurses.__MFS also sends engineers to poor countries to help people to do things like making wells, so they can have clean water.
In 1999, MSF won the Nobel Peace Prize. This was in recognition(认可) of the work that MSF has done, and of the courage of the men and women who work for the organization.

There are many ways to help improve your health like eating healthy food, taking exercise and getting medical help. But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. The general sleeping rule is that the younger you are, the longer sleep you need. But regardless of(不管) age, some people need to sleep more while for some a few hours is enough.
The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization, over half the people in the world may be sleepdeprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. In the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100，000 traffic accidents a year. Also sleep problems can cause medical problems such as high blood pressure(血压).
Why are so many people sleepdeprived? Part of the reasons may be cultural. In the American culture, people put a higher value on work than on sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are usually seen as “lazy”. Also, you can sometimes hear some people say proudly that they don't have much time to sleep, they only sleep four or five hours a night. It seems that the less you sleep, the more work you'll do.
How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep? Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr.James Maas, an expert(专家) in sleep. He says, “Sleep is like a credit(信用) card. When you sleep less, you are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back. The more hours you don't sleep, the more hours you should sleep to ‘pay back’ the hours on your ‘sleep credit card’.”
For those who value work more than sleep, they should listen to what a famous person once said, “Don't think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night. That is a foolish(愚蠢的) idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more.”
