Making Light of Sleep

All we have a clock located inside our brains. Similar to your bedside alarm clock, your intemal clock runs on a 24-hour cycle.-This cycle, called a circadian rhythm, helps control when you wake,when you eat and when you sleep.<br>

Somewhere around puberty, something happens in the timing of the biological clock. The clock pushes forward, so adolescents and teenagers are unable to fall asleep as early as they used to. When your mother tells you it&39;s time for bed, your body may be pushing you to stay up for several hours more.<br>

And the light coming from your computer screen or TV could be pushing you to stay up even later.<br>

This shift is natural for teenagers. But staying up very late and sleeping late can get your body&39;s clock out of sync with the cycle of light and dark. It can also make it hard to get out of bed in the morning and may bring other problems, too. Teenagers are put in a kind of a gray cloud when they don&39;t get enough sleep, says Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at BrownUniversity. It affects their mood and their ability to think and learn.<br>

But just like your alarm clock, your internal clock can be reset. In fact, it automatically resets itself every day. How? By using the light it gets through your eyes. Scientists have known for a long time that the light of day and the dark of night play important roles in setting our internal clocks. For years,researchers thought that the signals that synchronize the body&39;s clock were handled through the same pathways that we use to see.<br>

But recent discoveries show that the human eye has two separate light-sensing systems. One system allows us to see. The second system tells our body whether it&39;s day or night.

The clock located inside our brains is similar to our bedside alarm clock because __________. 查看材料

A.it controls when we wake, when we eat and when we sleep

B.it has a cycle of 24 hours

C.it is a cycle also called circadian rhythm

D.it can alarm any time during 24 hours

请根据短文的内容,回答题。

Gender Gap

The girls in this sixth grade class in East Palo Alto, California, all have the same access to computers as boys. But researchers say, by the time they get to high school, they are victims of what the researchers call a major new gender (性别) gap in technology. Janice Weinman of the American Association of University Women says, "Girls tend to be less comfortable than boys with the computer. They use it more for word processing rather than for problem solving, rather than to discover new ways in which to understand information."<br>

After re-examining a thousand studies, the American Association of University Women researchers found that girls make up only a small percentage of students in computer science classes. Girls consistently rate themselves significantly lower than boys in their ability and confidence in using computers. And they use computers less often than boys outside the classroom.<br>

An instructor of a computer lab says he&39;s already noticed some differences. Charles Cheadle of Cesar Chavez School says, "Boys are not so afraid they might do something that will harm the computer, whereas girls are afraid they might break it somehow."<br>

Six years ago, the software company Purple Moon noticed that girls&39; computer usage was falling behind boys. Karen Gould says, "The number one reason girls told us they don&39;t like computer games is not that they&39;re too violent, or too competitive. Girls just said they&39;re incredibly boring."<br>

Purple Moon says it found what girls want, characters they can relate to and story lines relative to what&39;s going on in their own lives. Karen Gould of Purple Moon Software says, "What we definitely found from girls is that there is no intrinsic ( 固有的 ) reason why they wouldn&39;t want to play on a computer; it was just a content thing."<br>

The sponsor of the study says it all boils down to this: the technology gender gap that separates the girls from the boys must be closed if women are to compete effectively with men in the 21 st century.

According to the passage, girls are victims of the gender gap in technology because__________. 查看材料

A.they can not discover new ways to use computers

B.they have the same access to computers as boys

C.they are likely to be less comfortable with computers

D.they can only use computers for word processing
