Colleges are starting to wake up to how sleep deprivation（剥夺） cuts into the academic and athletic performance of their students. All-nighters have become a habit in higher education, but a handful of small new studies help document the consequences.
A study at St. Lawrence University in Canton, N.Y., showed what may seem obvious to most of the all-nighters was not an effective way to succeed in school.
“You can’t do your best work when you’re sleep-deprived,” says psychology professor Pamela Thacher, who wrote the study. Thacher studied the sleeping patterns and grades of 111 students to see the relationship between sleep and their GPAs.
Two-thirds of the students reported that they had pulled at least one all-nighter during a semester. Many students believe that it’s a “rite of passage”（标志） to stay up all night during college and that “it’s kind of fun,” Thacher says.
But “if you use all-nighters, your GPA is slightly lower on average,” Thacher says.
Short-term side effects of sleep deprivation include delayed reactions and tendencies to make mistakes.
A Stanford University study may help persuade at least student athletes to make more time for bed. Cheri Mah, a graduate researcher at Stanford, worked with six basketball players, who all ran faster and made more shots over a period in which they slept at least 10 hours a night.
“Athletes who get an extra amount of sleep are more likely to improve their performance in a game,” says Mah, who released results from an ongoing study in June. “It’s not common knowledge, because if people understood how much of a difference getting more sleep could make athletically, they’d apply it more to their lives and not focus solely on nutrition and exercise. ”

A．one can reach his potential by staying up late

2. The underlined word “document” in the first paragraph probably means ______.

3．According to Cheri Mah, _______.
A．athletes improve their performance only by means of nutrition and exercise
B．it is known to all that those who get extra sleep perform better
C．people don’t understand getting more sleep can make a difference
D．athletes should sleep as much as possible to run faster
4．What is this passage mainly concerned about?
A．A study on all-nighters at St. Lawrence University.
B．College students’ performance suffering from lack of sleep.
C．Short-term side effects of sleep deprivation.
