21、 It's no surprise that a night without enough sleep can lead to a bad morning.Does it also do harm to our bodies?
According to US sleep researcher David Dinges, not getting enough sleep can have serious side effects on our minds and bodies.
For the study, Dinges divided some people into three groups.The first group was allowed eight hours of sleep for two weeks;the second group was given six hours;the third group got four hours of sleep.
Dinges found that the people in the first group stayed normal while the people in the last two groups showed tiredness and negative feelings.
"When people don't have enough sleep,it’s hard to sense their happiness,"Dinges said."Also,they are less able to sense others' good feelings."
But if not having enough sleep can harm our health,can we get better later on?
“People think that sleep is like the bank that you can pay off your debt (债务)*at a later point in time,Us Sleep Scientist Matthew Walker told popular Science."But we now know that sleep is not like that.
According to Live Science,humans are the only animal species that don't have sleep storage (储存)systems,our brains(大脑)*cannot get back what we have lost.
So Scientists suggest that no matter how busy people are,they should always try to get enough sleep.
Here's the recommended*(建设)hours of sleep by age.Preschoolers(3 to 5 years):10 to 13 hours.School—age children(6 to 13 years):9 to 11 hours .Teenagers(14 to 17 years):8 to 10 hours.Adults(18 to 64 years):7 to 9 hours.Older adults(over 65 years):7 to 8 hours.

A.9:00 p.m. B.9:30 p.m. C.10:00 p.m. D.10:30 p.m.

It was more difficult to get away from the party than I expected.I said that the children were tired and needed to get to bed.It was partly true.But the main reason for leaving was that I wanted to complete my plan.
First I had to get the kids to sleep.That was never easy at any time and tonight it was even more difficult.The eldest one wanted to know why we left the party early.I told him 10:30 pm was not early.As usual,I read them a bedtime story,but I had to stop myself reading too quickly or they would learn my secret.
Silence finally came,and feeling like a thief in the night,I went out of the house and into the garage.Taking one end,I dragged the bag out from its hiding place and took it into the garden.I was worried that my neighbours might see me and call the police.
It was already eleven o’clock.By the light of the moon I started working,trying to make as little noise as possible.And that was not easy with a saw(锯子)and a hammer.
After much effort,my work was finally completed.I looked down at my watch.It was exactly 4:00 am.Then I went inside to have a shower and get a few hours of sleep.It wouldn’t be long now before the kids would rush into my room and wake me up to tell me about the new tree house Father Christmas had brought them this year.

25、Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺,每空格限填一次,首字母已给)
Have you ever experienced the feeling of falling as you start to fall asleep? Sometimes you may wake up to this feeling. If so, don’t worry. Many people have felt the same thing.
In fact, these muscle twitches(肌肉抽搐)in the arms, legs or other parts of the body are called hypnic jerks(入嚼抽动)or sleep starts. And they are very c【1】 . Up to 70 percent of people experience them sometimes, Huffington Post reported. But what causes it?
There are some theories(理念). Some scientists believe that the feeling of falling comes from the body relaxing itself, especially if the person is anxious or unable to get comfortable. A【2】 you’re going to sleep, your muscles become relaxed. But your brain s【3】 awake. It misunderstands the relaxing of your muscles as a sign that you’re falling. The brain then jerks the body awake as if it’s trying to protect you.
Other scientists believe that different phases of sleep might cause the hypnic jerks. When we sleep, we experience two phases non-rapid eye movement (NREM,非快速眼动睡眠期) and rapid eye movement (REM,快速眼动睡眠期). During REM, our heart rate, breathing and nervous s【4】 can fact irregularly. If the body experiences flashes(一瞬间)of REM while entering sleep, these irregularities could cause twitches.
If you don’t want to experience hypnic jerks, scientists have some suggestions. When you become r【5】 relaxed, you can learn how to reconnect slowly by moving your fingers and toes a little bit. Then start to move your head and open your eyes, while being aware of yourself as you get out of the relaxed state.
But experts agree that hypnic jerks, though sometimes scary, are homeless. If it wakes you up, simply roll over and go back to sleep,. But keep in mind: a caffeinated(含咖啡因的) drink, e【6】 evening activities or stress may make hypnic jerks happen more often.
