初中英语判断推理试题

Have you ever had trouble sleeping in a new place？

Lots of people do．And now researchers from Brown University in Rhode Island think they know why．They found that one﹣half of the brain"remains more awake"than the otherhalf when people are trying to sleep in a new place．

The sleep findings were reported in Current Biology by Brown University．In their report，the researchers said many people report they have a harder time sleeping the first night at a hotel or other places outside their home．They call it"first﹣night influence"．"In Japan they say，"If you change your bed，you can't sleep，'"said Yuka Sasaki，one of the report's writers．"You don't sleep very well in a new place．We all know about it．"

The researchers measured brain waves （测量脑波） for 35volunteers over two nights in a laboratory．The two nights were a week apart （间隔）．They found during the first night the left half of the brain was more active than the right half．This was during the first deep﹣sleep period，the researchers said．

Sasaki said a lot of questions remain．

Researchers did not keep measuring brain waves all night long．So，they don't know if the left half keeps"watch"all night，or whether it"works in shifts （轮换） with the right half later in the night"．They also do not know why the brain activity，at least during the first period of deep sleep，is always on the left half．

For some，this research may be calming．It is good to know that our brain is"looking out for us"in a new place．But it may not help with sleep．That brain activity，at least according to this new research，makes it harder to get the sleep people need to wake up well rested in the morning．

D．	It is unnecessary to worry about terrible weather．

Teens and kids are reading a lot less for fun， according to a recent report．

Although the decline （下降） in the past ten years is very surprising for teen readers， some data（数据） in the report shows that reading is still a big part of many children's lives．

According to the report， the number of teens who hardly read has gone up from 8 percent to 25 percent today． The report data shows that kids' reading ability remains almost the same． However， the amount of reading time has fallen， from about an hour every day to half an hour．

As for children's e﹣reading， the report mentions little about its effects． But it says that many parents choose to control the time spent on e﹣books， mainly because they are worried about the increased screen time． After all， it is important to protect their kids' eyes．

The most helpful part in the report is parents' effects on their children． It shows that parents are examples and important guides for them in reading． If parents read more and find more time to read with their children， it turns out that their children actually read more often．

As summer vacation arrives， parents might take this chance to step in， make a reading list and enjoy the pleasant family reading time．
