　　When people don’t know the language, the most common way to communicate is through gestures．However, many gestures have different meanings, or no meaning at all, in different part of the world．

　　In the United States, for example, nodding your head up and down means “yes”．In some parts of Greece and Turkey, however, this motion can mean “no”．In Southeast Asia, nodding your head is a polite way of saying “I heard you”．

　　In ancient Rome, when the emperor wanted to spare someone’s life, he would put his thumb up．Today in the United States, when someone puts his/her thumb up, it means “Everything is all right”．However, in Sardinia and Greece, the gesture is insulting and should not be used there．

　　In the United States, raising your clasped hands above your head means “I’m the champion．” or “I’m the winner”．It is the sign fighters make when they win a fight．When a leading Russian Statesman made this gesture after a White House meeting, Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner．In Russia, however, it is a sign of friendship．

　　In the United States, holding your hand up with the thumb and index finger in a circle and the other three fingers spread out means “Everything is O．K．” and is frequently used by astronauts and politicians．In France and Belgium, it can mean “You’re worth nothing．”

ALBANY，New York—Students who rely on working at night to improve their

grades might want to sleep on that strategy: A new survey in the US says those who never study all night have slightly higher grades than those who do.

A survey of 120 students at St.Lawrence University found that students who had never pulled an all??nighter on average had higher grades than those who had. The survey found those who did not study through the night had a grade point average of 3.2 compared to 2.95 for those who did.

The study, by assistant professor of psychology Pamela Thacher, is to be included in the January issue of Behavioral Sleep Medicine.

“It's not a big difference，but it's pretty striking, ” Thacher said, “I am primarily a sleep researcher and I know nobody thinks clearly at 4∶00 in the morning. You think you can do，but you can't.”

Many college students, of course, have inadequate or irregular sleep, for reasons ranging from excessive caffeine to poor time management.

“A lot of students were under the impression that all??nighters were a very useful tool for accomplishing work, and that caffeine intake was very useful in meeting deadlines and stuff like that, ”said Mr Chatani, who had a 3.4 grade point average last term.

Dr Howard Weiss, a physician at St.Peter's Sleep Center in Albany, said the study results made sense.

“Certainly that data is out there showing that short sleep duration absolutely interferes with concentration and performance on objective testing, ”he said.

“Some night owls do get good grades, of course，which may be explained by circadian (昼夜节律的，生理节奏的) rhythms, ”Weiss said, “Some people have different 24??hour body clocks from others, and may do better depending on classes and testing time.”

The purpose of the passage is to tell us 　　　　

A. the bad effects of pulling an all??nighter

B. pulling an all??nighter leads to sleep problems

C. Thacher's doubt about all??nighters

D. all??nighters influence students' grades

According to Thacher's study，around 4 o'clock in the morning is a time when 　　　　.

A. one can think more clearly

B. one has his/her best memory

C. one can't learn efficiently

D. one's brain falls into a period of deep sleep

What can we know from Dr Howard Weiss' words？

A. Thacher's study is not convincing enough.

B. He believes in Thacher's study.

C. Thacher's study makes no sense.

D. Thacher should take exceptions into consideration.
