Ví dụ
It's a question that is illuminating (chiếu rọi, làm sáng tỏ) the sleep research that examines how wider societal factors (yếu tố xã hội) affect our forty—or thirty, or twenty—winks.

Twenty winks — the dream of many an overworked employee — could soon be extended to 40 if a bill presented by a private member receives Parliament’s nod (cái gật đầu, đồng ý của quốc hội).

If you ever find yourself struggling to catch twenty winks on a transatlantic flight (chuyến bay vượt Đại tây dương), Airsleep for iPhone might just come to the rescue. Airsleep serves up a number of ambient (bao quanh xung quanh) sounds to help cancel out cabin noise, and promises to guide you into the land of candy floss clouds for some slumber (giấc ngủ).
