"It hurts me more than you,""This is for your own good,"... These are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Lat?in* clean my room, stay home and do homework.

That was before we entered the permissive(自由的)period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy on us. They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vaca?tions.

Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we've made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who says of her students "so passive" and wonders what happened. Nothing was demanded of them,she believes. Television, says Klompus, contributes to children's passivity. " We're not training kids to work any more," says Klompus. "We're talking about a gen?eration of kids who've never been hurt or hungry. They have learned some?body will always do it for them. Instead of saying ' go and look it up, , you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid.,,

Yes. It does. It takes energy and it takes work. It's time for parents to end their vacations and come back to work. It's time to take the car away,to turn TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it's for their own good. It's time to start telling them no again.

C

Students who stay up late to prepare for a test or finish a project have lower comprehension and worse performance in the classroom, research shows. The old saying "you snooze, you lose" doesn't apply to students who stay up late to prepare for a test or finish a class project.

The UCLA team found that a student who gives up sleep for extra study time will have trouble the next day understanding material in class and be more likely to struggle with an assignment or a test―the opposite of the student's intent.

The researchers didn't quantify(量化)the increased risk for academic problems following a longer-than-usual study session, but they said the number of problems was surprisingly greater.

When she stayed up late to study, Kai Daniels had more trouble ab?sorbing material in class. "I'd have to re-teach myself at night,"she said. The finding makes a lot of sense, and several new studies are showing that the quantity and the quality of sleep are important for remembering new infor?mation and consolidating(巩固)learning.

Students who get too little sleep don't have enough time to process what they study; even just one night of sleep deprivation(剥夺)can have a negative effect. Parents should do what they can to make sure their children have enough sleep. Most adolescents need just over nine hours of sleep a night,which 9% of high school students actually get, according to the Na?tional Sleep Foundation. "Though a regular sleep time is necessary, it's hard for those students who are racing to enter college to put it into prac?tice," the researchers wrote.

8. New research shows that giving away sleep for school work .
A. is a good trade                   B.is a special trade

C. is a common trade             D is a bad trade

9. Students give up their sleep just_ __ .

  A. to understand material in class

B. to get more time to play

C.to get more time to study |

D. to struggle with a test

10 What does the example of Kai Daniels prove in Paragraph 4? „

A.The importance of staying up late to study.         

B.The importance of the quantity and the quality of sleep.

C The importance of remembering new information.

D. The importance of consolidating learning.

11.Why can't most students in high school get enough sleep?

A. Because they should obey school rules.

B. Because their parents force them to stay up late.

C.Because they obey the rules of the National Sleep Foundation.

D.Because they face great pressure to go to college.
