Apparently，at times in the past，peasants in France liked a semistate of human hibernation.So writes Graham Robb，a British scholar who has studied the sleeping habits of the French peasants.As soon as the weather turned cold，people all over the France shut themselves away and practiced the forgotten art of doing nothing at all for months on end. In line with this，Jeff Warren，a producer at CBC Radios The Current，tells us that the way we sleep has changed fundamentally since the invention of artificial(人造的)lightning and the electric bulb. When historians began studying texts of the Middle Ages，they noticed something referred to as “first sleep”，which was not clarified，though.Now scientists are telling us our ancestors most likely slept in separate periods.The business of eight hours uninterrupted sleep is a modern invention. In the past，without the artificial light of the city to bathe in，humans went to sleep when it became dark and then woke themselves around midnight.The late night period was known as“The Watch”It was when people actually kept watch against wild animals，although many of them simply moved around or visited family and neighbours. According to some sleep researchers，a short of period of insomnia(失眠)at midnight is not a disorder.It is normal.Humans can experience another state of consciousness around their sleeping，which occurs in the brief period before we fall asleep or wake ourselves in the morning.This period can be an extraordinarily creative time for some people.The impressive inventor，Thomas Edison，used this state to hit upon many of his new ideas. Playing with your sleep rhythms can be adventurous，as anxiety may set in.Medical science doesnt help much in this case.It offers us medicines for a full nights continuous sleep，which sounds natural；however，according to Warrens theory，it is really the opposite of what we need.1The example of the French peasants shows the fact that _.Apeople might become lazy as a result of too much sleepBthere were signs of hibernation in human sleeping habitsCpeople tended to sleep more peacefully in cold weatherDwinter was a season for people to sleep for months on end解析推理判断题。根据第二段内容可推断，在人类睡眠的习惯中也有冬眠的迹象。其他三项的表述与文章内容不符。答案B2The late night was called“The Watch”because it was a time for people _.Ato set traps to catch animals Bto wake up their family and neighboursCto remind others of the time Dto guard against possible dangers解析细节理解题。根据倒数第三段最后一句可知，这段时间被称为“The Watch”是因为人们在这段时间内站岗放哨，预防可能发生的危险。答案D3What does the author advise people to do?ASleep in the way animals do. BConsult a doctor if they cant sleep.CFollow their natural sleep rhythm.DKeep to the eighthour sleep pattern.解析细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句可知，作者建议人们遵循自然的睡眠规律，否则会产生焦虑等问题。其他三项表述与文章内容不符。答案C4What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?ATo give a prescription for insomnia.BTo urge people to sleep less.CTo analyze the sleep pattern of modern people.DTo throw new light on human sleep.解析主旨大意题。通读全文可知，作者写这篇文章的主要目的是从不同的角度对人类的睡眠进行全新的阐释。答案D.短文填句(2010北京崇文期末)There was a legend about one small thing changing the world history.Sir Alexander Fleming was a Scottish biologist.
