17.A high school in England has found a new solution to allow students to sleep longer in the morning.The$25,000-a-year Hampton Court House School is starting a 1:30to 7:00pm timetable in September.It will become the only school in Britain that starts lessons in the afternoon.Head teacher Guy Holloway said the changed hours should help students get higher grades.He said research on human brains shows students can do better if they can sleep longer in the morning.Mr.Holloway said:"We want to get students into an environment where they can get quality sleep and their bodies are working well in correct ways."He added:"It's about what works in our neighborhood."The aftermoon start is supported by research by Oxford University.Researcher Dr.Paul Kelley said:"You can't train yourselves to get up at a practical time."He said we are not in control of choosing the best time to work because it's biological(生物钟)-our nature,just like we have no control over our heartbeat or how our ears do their work.Dr.Kelley added:"Anything you do to change the timing of your body means different parts of your body will not be able to work together at the same time to keep you going and this is where people get ill….It is no fixing it by giving someone an alarm clock."A student at the school,Gabriel Purcell-Davis,15,is in support of the idea.He said students are tired all day now,"…as soon as 10o'clock hits,that's when we…do all our work".
