题文

Are morning people born or made? In my ca it was definitely made．In my early 20s, I rarely went to bed before midnight, and I would almost always get up late the next morning．But after a while I couldn’t ignore the high relationship between success and rising early．On tho rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity was almost always higher．So I t out to become a habitual early rir．But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noi and go back to sleep．Eventually some sleep rearch showed me that I was using the wrong strategy．The most common wrong strategy is this: You assume that if you’re going to get up earlier, you’d better go to bed earlier．It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail.There are two main schools(流派) of thought on sleep patterns．One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day．The cond school says you should go to bed when you’re tired and get up when you naturally wake up．However, I have found both of them are wrong if you care about productivity．If you sleep at t hours, you’ll sometimes go to bed when you aren’t sleepy enough．You’re wasting time lying in bed awake and not being asleep.If your sleep is bad on what your body tells you, you’ll probably be sleeping more than you need．Also, your mornings may be less predictable if you’re getting up at different times．The solution for me has been to combine both methods．I go to bed when I’m sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time．So I always get up at the same time (in my ca 5 am), but I go to bed at different times every night — sometimes at 9:30pm, and other times at midnight．Most of the time I go to bed between 10-11 pm．However, going to bed only when I’m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning is my way．If you want to become an early rir, you can try your own.小题1:According to the passage, the underlined phra refers to ____.A．people who stay up until the next morning.B．people who get up early in the morning.C．people who feel sleepy in the morning.D．people who productivity is the highest in the morning.小题2:Why did the author want to become a habitual early rir?A．Becau he / she wanted to form the habit of going to bed early and getting up early.B．Becau he / she had found that his / her productivity was higher when he / she got up early.C．Becau he / she wanted to e which of the two main schools of thought on sleep patterns was right.D．Becau he / she was told the high relationship between success and rising early.小题3:The author experienced all the following EXCEPT ____.A．going to bed after midnight．B．getting up early occasionally.C．pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping.D．asking scholars for advice on sleeping habits.小题4:The passage is mainly about ____。A．how to become an early rir．B．how to have good sleep.C．wrong strategies for getting up early.D．main schools of thought on sleep patterns. 题型：未知难度：其他题型
