22、Aside from exercising and staying outside, light lamp therapy can be used to treat seasonal affective disorder(SAD) in people who must remain indoors for work. There is nothing wrong with acknowledging that one has seasonal affective disorder. It is a simple confusion in the brain arising from changes in seasons and can affect anyone.
Boston University claims 10 million Americans are in low spirits in the winter months, when, across a large part of the continental U. S. , the sun sets at about 5:30 pm. All kinds of small problems can occur if someone stays inside all day. Research on office workers shows that there are changes in mood, dietary preferences, vitamin D deficiencies(缺乏), and more, and winter has people staying indoors more than they would be in summer.
Often, one of the reasons why SAD can affect people so strongly in the wintertime is that the sky is more often cloudy. Cells in our eyes known as melanopsin(黑视蛋白) detect light spectrums(光谱) to determine what time of day it is, and a sky that is cloudy all day can disturb their calculations.
One method for treating this is to, so to speak, get an artificial sun—one that can shine right into your home or office. When the brain senses that the light from the sun is gone, it signals the creation of melatonin(黑色素). Of course, at 5:00 pm, few people in the modern world are ready for bed. Some people use light lamps to trick their brains into thinking it's still daytime. However, it's not only the detection of falling sunlight that determines melatonin production. It's also the presence of sunlight during the day that helps produce melatonin at night.
One needs a strong lamp to copy the kind of sunlight exposure examined in this study. If one were to combine the use of a light lamp during the daylight hours with use of blue-light filters(过滤器) to remove the sunlight spectrum from devices and computers around the time that the sun would go down in summer, for example around 8:30 pm, the positive effect could be stronger.
Katie Sharkey at Brown University told a news website the pros and cons of using a light lamp, namely that they truly work for treating SAD, but that one has to be careful about using it at the right moment of the day. If used too early in the day you'll find yourself becoming tired before your normal bedtime, while using it too late can prevent you from falling asleep.
Despite this, a therapy lamp is definitely an option, like vitamin D or exercise, for treating SAD, and while Sharkey warns they can cause side effects like headache or interference with some medicines, it's a cheap treatment option that can be discussed with mental health professionals.
【1】Which is one of the characteristics of SAD?
A．It occurs in people who work outdoors.
B．It pushes people to stay inside all day.
C．Its effect on people is much worse in winter.
D．It causes complex confusion in the human brain.
【2】What is the function of melanopsin sensors?
A．They make objects visible even in the dark.
B．They help the brain feel the changes in seasons.
C．They change people's mood and dietary preferences.
D．They help people judge the time through light spectrums.
【3】Why is a light lamp able to treat SAD?
A．It disturbs the creation of melatonin and tricks the brain.
B．It makes people believe that the sun is still shining in the sky.
C．It prevents people from going to bed too early in the evening.
D．It makes people feel tired when it is the normal time to go to bed.
【4】What does Katie Sharkey suggest people pay attention to?
A．Light lamps may be not a treatment option for SAD.
B．Taking medicine when using light lamps is strictly prohibited.
C．Light lamps should be used at proper times when treating SAD.
D．A therapy lamp might be more than people are able to afford.
23、Find it hard to get started? Try these suggestions to help you rise and shine — and be effective from morning till night.
Get up earlier
Sleeping in can be a hard habit to break. 【1】 That is, you need to go to bed earlier and get up earlier. Start off by going to bed 15 minutes before your usual turn-in time and setting your alarm the same number of minutes earlier the next day. Gradually reset your sleep cycle until you get to your desired wake-up time.
Have a good stretch in bed
Before you even open your eyes, stretch every extremity for 15 seconds. Lift your arm and begin by stretching each fingers, next your hand, and then your arm. 【2】 End with a neck and back stretch that gets you out of bed. By doing this, you will increase the flow of blood through your system, providing your tissues with extra oxygen.
【3】
The fewer choices you have to make first thing, the better. Before going to bed, decide what you’re going to wear, work out which route you’ll take to work and pack your bag.
Check your morning calendar
Hang a large whiteboard in your kitchen. On it, write down all you need to know for that particular day, from doctor appointments to what you’re doing with your friends. Check it carefully while you sip your first cup of coffee or tea. 【4】
Get moving
