一去二三里,烟村四五家。

亭台六七座,八九十枝花。

Two to three miles away,

there are four to five villages,

Scattered six or seven pavilions,

with eight to ten flowers blooming.

The idea of aligning waking hours to daylingt hours to conserve candles was first proposed in 1784 by US polymath Benjamin Franklin. In a satirical letter to the editor of The Journal of Paris, Franklin suggested that waking up earlier in the summer would economize candle usage and calculated considerable savings.

为了节省蜡烛而统一设定起床时间的想法,最初是由美国博学家本杰明富兰克林提出来的。在给巴黎期刊编辑的举荐信中,富兰克林建议夏天早起会经济蜡烛使用并节省很多钱。
