Studies have shown that a good night’s rest helps us stay healthy, Researchers say sleep is probably the best tool we have for memory and learning.
"Getting a good night's sleep is important for the learning and memory process. It's important because it stores(储存) the training and learning exercises into our memory forever while we're sleeping 7-8 hours in bed, And then the next morning when we wake up, our mind is better prepared to act on that information, "Twery, an expert on the science of sleep said.
But what about getting rest during the middle of the day? Past studies have shown that napping can help babies and young children lean better. In fact, napping can help older adults with their brain performance and may also help this group of people fight off age-related(年龄相关) memory loss.
The researchers studied 3,00 people and found that those who look an hour-long map did much better on mental (智力的)) tests, The hour-long nappers also did better on the tests than those who napped for shorter and longer periods. But researchers note that these findings are for those over 65, and for young healthy adults, an hour-long nap may be too long.
“At present, we’re suggesting that we try to nap for about 30 minutes or less. Thirty minutes is enough to remove (消除) the pressure and will help us feel more awake. If we nap longer, we will get trapped into(陷入) the deep sleep, which can be hard to get out of"Twery said. This feeling is called sleep inertia (迟钝)-the period when you awake from a very deep sleep. For a time, you are unable to think clearly.
( )61, From Paragraph 1, a good night's sleep_____________.
A. is usually 7-8 hours B. makes people become smarter
C. makes people wake up early in the morning D helps with people's learning and memory
( )62. The underlined word"napping"in Paragraph 3 means”____________”.
A. a short sleep during the day B. a good sleep during the day
C. a deep sleep at night D a long sleep at night
( )63. What does the result of the study show?
A. The time of napping should be controlled. B. The hour-long nappers are much smarter.
C. Young adults need more napping time D. The deeper you sleep, the longer you'll sleep
( )64. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How does napping influence people's health? B Napping may improve learning and memory
C. The importance of having a good nights sleep D, How long should people take a nap during the day?
( )65 In which part of a newspaper can we find the passage
A NATURE B SPORTS C HEALTH D CULTURE
