furthermore, teens circadian rhythms (i.e., processes that occur once a day) mean that young people would rather stay up past midnight and rise after 9 a.m. the result? many teens stay up late, drag themselves out of bed early for school and try to make up the sleep debt on the weekends-or in class!“theres a biological reason why teens stay up late and want to sleep late,” says dr. stan kutcher, the sun life chair of adolescent mental health at dalhousie university in halifax. “their natural sleep-wake cycle changes as part of the maturation process. and because of changes in their social activities, recovering from sleep debt is more problematic.”teens need extra sleep for several reasons. first, their brains are changing. “the brain is reorganizing itself, laying down new pathways. what were seeing is a relationship between brain redevelopment and an increased need for sleep,” says kutcher. as well, growth hormones are released during sleep, so adequate sleep is crucial for adolescents physical development. in addition, everything adolescents have learned in school that day is being processed and locked into long-term memory during sleep. sufficient sleep also plays a key role in overall physical health. the immune system, for example, needs deep sleep to become and remain robust(healthy).staying up late on school nights means that, on average, teens get between six and a half and seven hours of sleep a night-about two hours less than they need. as a result, many either doze off in class or have trouble concentrating. some of the behavioural problems and irritability in teens can be linked directly to sleep deprivation(损失), kutcher says. then theres the breakfast issue. dr. carlyle smith, a sleep researcher and a psychology professor at trent university in peterborough, ont., adds that many teens simply cannot tolerate food when they first wake up, so skipping breakfast becomes another factor in reduced alertness in class. the most obvious solution to the teen sleep problem is to have school start later in the day, but initiatives(积极性) toward this across the country have gone nowhere, smith says, mainly because of costs and resistance from school boards and teachers. 41. the word “zzzs” (paragraph 1) most probably means _. a. foodb. sleepc. energyd. blame42. what causes teenagers to be less sleepy late at night and more sleepy early in the morning? a. caffeinated drinks. b. too much family activities. c. circadian rhythms. d. too much homework.43. how many reason why teens need extra sleep are mentioned in paragraph 4? a. three.b. four.c. five.d. six.44. one of the reasons why many teenagers fail to have better performances in class is that _. a. teenagers go to bed early and sleep late b. teenagers stay up late and get up late c. teenagers participate in too many social activities at night d. teenagers skip breakfast because of sleeping in 45. the author wrote this article to _. a. advise parents to let sleeping teenagers lie b. explain why teenagers often sleep late c. state schools should start late in the day d. warn teenagers not to drink coffee before bedbbelow is a passages adapted from a website.tayka hotel de salwhere: tahua, bolivia how much: about $95 a nightwhy its cool: youve stayed at hotels made of brick or wood, but salt? thats something few can claim. tayka hotel de sal is made totally of salt-including the beds (though youll sleep on regular mattresses (床垫) and blankets). the hotel sits on the salar de uyuni, a prehistoric dried-up lake thats the worlds biggest salt flat. builders use the salt from the 4,633-square-mile flat to make the bricks, and glue them together with a paste of wet salt that hardens when it dries. when rain starts to dissolve the hotel, the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.-green magic nature resortwhere: vythiri, india how much: about $240 a nightwhy its cool: taking a pulley(滑轮)-operated lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure. as you look out of your open window-there is no glass!-you watch monkeys and birds in the rain forest canopy(罩蓬). later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel, or just sit on your bamboo bed and read. you dont even have to come down for breakfast-the hotel will send it up on the pulley-drawn “elevator”.-dog bark park inn b&bwhere: cottonwood, idaho how much: $92 a nightwhy its cool: this doghouse isnt just for the family pet. sweet willy is a 30-foot-tall dog with guest rooms in his belly. climb the wooden stairs beside his hind leg to enter the door in his sideyou can relax in the main bedroom, go up a few steps of the loft(阁楼）in willys head, or hang out inside his nose. although you have a full private bathroom in your quarters, there is also a toilet in the 12-foot-tall fire hydrant (消防栓）outside.-gamirasu cave hotelwhere: ayvali, turkey how much: between $130 and $475 a night.why its cool: this is caveman cool! experience what it was like 5,000 years ago, when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash. but your stay will be much more modern. bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel, and the white volcanic ash, called tufa, keeps the rooms cool, about 65in summer. (dont worry-there is heat in winter.)-treebones resortwhere: california, america how much: $100 a nightwhy its cool: you can sleep in a “room” any night, but how often do you get the chance to sleep in a yurt. whats a yurt? good question. yurts are the name given to guest rooms at the treebones resort. these spaces provide all of the accessibility to nature youd enjoy in a tent, but with all the comforts of a cabin. in one of sixteen yurts, you will doze off(打盹儿) while gazing at the stars that can be seen through a sky dome.46. what is the main purpose of this passage? a. to sell the hotels. b. to attract guests. c. to offer good service. d. to get popular.47. if you want to experience a thrilling life, youd better go to _. a. treebones resortb. gamirasu cave hotel c. dog bark park inn b&bd. green magic nature resort48. sweet willy is the name of _. a. a doghouse for the family pet b. a thirty-foot-tall family dog c. the building of dog bark park inn b&b d. the guest rooms in dog bark park inn b&b49. which of the following words can best describe all the five hotels in the passage? a. unique.b. ordinary.c. costly.d. natural.cwashington-think youre savvy about food safety? that you wash your hands well, scrub away germs, cook your meat properly? guess again. scientists put cameras in the kitchens of 100 families in logan, utah. what was caught on tape in this middle-class, well-educated college town suggests why food poisoning hits so many americans. people skipped soap when hand-washing. used the same towel to wipe up raw meat juice as to dry their hands. made a salad without washing the lettuce. undercooked the meat loaf. one even tasted the marinade in which bacteria-ridden raw fish had soaked. not to mention the mom who handled raw chicken and then fixed her infant a bottle without washing her hands. or another mom who merely rinsed(冲洗) her babys juice bottle after it fell into raw eggs-no soap against the salmonella(沙门氏菌) that can lurk(潜伏) in eggs.“shocking,” was utah state university nutritionist janet andersons reaction.specialists call this typical of the average u.s. household: everybody commits at least some safety sins(罪恶) when they are hurried, distracted by fussy children or ringing phones, simply not thinking about germs. even anderson made changes in her kitchen after watching the tapes.the food and drug administration funded andersons $50,000 study to detect how cooks slip up. the goal is to improve consumers knowledge of how to protect themselves from the food poisoning that strikes 76 million americans each year.“one of the great barriers in getting people to change is they think theyre doing such a good job already,” said fda consumer research chief alan levy. surveys show most americans blame restaurants for food-borne illnesses. asked if they follow basic bacteria-fighting tips-listed on the internet at -most insist theyre careful in their kitchens. levy says most food poisonings probably occur at home. the videotapes suggest why. people have no idea that theyre messing up, anderson said. “you just go in the kitchen, and its something you dont think about.” she described preliminary(初步的) study results at a food meeting last week. having promised the families anonymity, she didnt show the tapes. for $50 and free groceries, families agreed to be filmed. their kitchens looked clean and presumably(perhaps) they were on their best behavior, but they didnt know it was a safety study. hoping to see real-life hygiene, scientists called the experiment “market research” on how people cooked a special recipe. scientists bought ingredients for a salad plus either mexican meat loaf, marinaded halibut or herb-breaded chicken breasts with mustard sauce-recipes designed to catch safety slip-ups.cameras started rolling as the cooks put away the groceries. there was mistake no. 1: only a quarter stored raw meat and seafood on the refrigerators bottom shelf so other foods dont get contaminated(污染) by dripping juices. mistake no. 2: before starting to cook, only 45 percent washed their hands. of those, 16 percent didnt use soap. youre supposed to wash hands often while cooking, especially after handling raw meat. but on average, each cook skipped seven times that anderson said they should have washed. only a third consistently used soap-many just rinsed and wiped their hands on a dish towel. that dish towel became andersons nightmare. using paper towels to clean
