College Night Owls Have Lower Grades
College students who are morning people tend to get better grades than those who are night owls (晚睡的人), according to University of North Texas researchers.
They had 824 undergraduate (大学本科生的) students complete a health survey that included questions about sleep habits and daytime functioning, and found that students who are morning people had higher grade point averages (GPAs) than those who are night people.
"The finding that college students who are evening types have lower GPAs is a very important finding, sure to make its way into undergraduate psychology texts in the near future, along with the research showing that memory is improved by sleep," study co-author Daniel J. Taylor said in a prepared statement.
"Further, these results suggest that it might be possible to improve academic performance by using chronotherapy (时间疗法) to help students retrain their biological clock to become more morning types," Taylor said.
The research was expected to be presented Monday at SLEEP, the annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies, in Baltimore.
In other findings expected to be heard at the meeting, University of Colorado researchers found a significant association between insomnia (失眠) and a decline in college students&39; academic performance.
The study included 64 psychology, nursing and medical students, average age 27.4 years, who were divided into two groups--low GPAs and high GPAs.
Among those with low GPAs,69.7 percent had trouble falling asleep,53.1 percent experienced leg kicks or twitches (痉挛) at night,65.6 percent reported waking at night and having trouble falling back to sleep, and 72.7 percent had difficulty concentrating during the day.
"In college students, the complaint of difficulty concentrating during the day continues to have a considerable impact on their ability to succeed in the classroom," study author Dr. James F. Pagel said in a prepared statement. "This study showed that disordered sleep has significant harmful effects on a student&39;s academic performance, including GPAs."
In the first study, students who stay up late 查看材料
A.had lower GPAs
B.had higher GPAs
C.performed equally well in their studies
D.had little difficulty concentrating during the day

What about using a paragraph? "Just a paragraph?" he said. "Taking a paragraph and changing words,I&39;ve done that before;it wasn&39;t a big deal,"he decided finally. "As long as I can manipulate it to be my words,change a few,it&39;s not cheating."
Under the honour code he signed when he entered Duke University last year,it is. But for many college students,the once-clear lines that define cheating have faded. Some colleges and universities have resorted to sophisticated search engines to ferret out cheats. But an increasing number is turning to something decidedly more low-tech: their honour codes. Some campuses are adopting codes for the first time. Others,among them Duke,acknowledging that their codes have existed mostly in name only,are rewriting and more aggressively enforcing them.
Cheating has become so common,experts say,that it often goes unreported and unpunished. Surveys show not only that there is more cheating these days but also that students and teachers alike have become more accepting of some practices once considered out of bounds. One such survey was performed for the Centre for Academic Integrity,an organization based at Duke that helps create honour codes. In that survey,27 per cent of students questioned during the 2001-2 academic year said that falsifying laboratory data happened "often or very often" on campus.
The new honour codes aim to punish more while also forcing students and faculty members to think about the kinds of offenses that constitute cheating. At large universities and small liberal arts colleges alike,educators talk about restoring a "culture of honour."
"It&39;s a psychological effect: if people expect you to be honourable,you are more likely to respond with honourable behavior,"said Nannerl O.Keohane,the president of Duke.
At Duke,a new "community standard" for academic integrity will take effect next fall.
Under it,the faculty will no longer have to proctor exams,but students will face punishment if they see cheating and do not report it. Faculty members will have greater power to discipline first-time cheats,authority that the university hopes will encourage them to confront offenders.
Questions:
1. How to find student cheats?
2. It can be inferred from the passage that one of the students&39; honour codes might be "__________".
3. The phrase "out of bounds" probably means __________ .
4. What is the main idea of the passage?
