Night Time Late Sleep Bed Day Evening I

The English word "night" refers to the period of the day between sunset and sunrise when it is dark and people usually sleep. It can also refer to the time spent relaxing before bed or a specific evening event like a show. The word is also used in phrases such as "at night" (during the evening or night), "day and night" (continuously), and "an early/late night" (going to bed early or late).

英语词汇 "night" 指的是一天中日落后到天亮前的一段时间,也是人们通常睡觉的时间。它还可以指就寝前放松的那段时间,或是特定活动(如演出)发生的晚上。此外,“night” 还用于一些短语,如 "at night"(在晚上)、"day and night"(昼夜不停)和 "an early/late night"(早睡/晚睡)。
