problem in rich countries, with sleep experts linking it to the use of mobile phones and computers in bedrooms late at night. sleep deprivation is such a serious problem that lessons have to be dragged down to a lower level to suit sleep-deprived learners, the study found. the international comparison, carried out by boston college, found the united states to have the highest number of sleep-deprived students, with 73% of 9 and 10-year-olds and 80% of 13 and 14-year-olds identified by their teachers as being negatively affected.in literacy tests (讀寫檢測(cè)) there were 76% of 9 and 10-year-olds lacking sleep. this was much higher than the international average of 47% of primary pupils needing more sleep and 57% among the secondary age group. other countries with sleep-deprived youngsters were new zealand, saudi arabia, australia, england, ireland and france. high-performing finland is also among the most lacking in sleep.the analysis was part of the huge data-gathering process for global education rankings，the trends in international mathematics and science study (timss) and progress in international reading literacy study (pirls).“i think we underestimate the impact of sleep. our data show that across countries internationally, on average, children who have more sleep achieve higher in maths, science and reading. that is exactly what our data show,” says chad minnich, of the timss and pirls international study center.“its the same link for children who are lacking basic nutrition,” says mr minnich, based at the lynch school of education, boston college. “if you are unable to concentrate, to attend mentally, you are unable to achieve at your best level, because your mind and body are in need of something more basic. sleep is a fundamental need for all children. if teachers report such large proportions of children suffering from lack of sleep, its having a significant impact. but worse than that, teachers are having to adjust their instruction based on those children who are suffering from a lack of sleep. the children who are suffering from a lack of sleep are driving down instruction.” that means that even the children who are getting enough sleep are also suffering from sleep deprivation.59. the research conducted by boston college is to show _.a. the reason for childrens lack of sleepb. the hours children can sleep every nightc. the link between sleep deprivation and healthd. the relationship between sleep and test results60. according to the passage, many children suffer from sleep deprivation because_.a. their homework occupies too much of their timeb. their parents and teachers put great pressure on themc. they are too concerned about performances in their studiesd. they spend too much time in using mobile phones and computers61. which of the following countries has the most sleep-deprived students?a. new zealand b. finland c. america d. australia62. why are children who get enough sleep also suffering from sleep deprivation?a. because teaching is driven down by sleep-deprived students.b. because they are seriously disturbed by sleep-deprived students.c. because they have to spend time helping sleep-deprived students.d. because the teachers waste time disciplining sleep-deprived students.chigh-tech glasses developed at washington university school of medicine may help surgeons visualize（可視化）cancer cells, which glow blue when viewed through the glasses.the wearable technology, so new its yet unnamed, was used during surgery for the first time today at alvin j. siteman cancer center at barnes-jewish hospital and washington university school of medicine.cancer cells are difficult to see, even under high-powered magnification. the glasses are designed to make it easier for surgeons to tell cancer cells from healthy cells, helping to ensure that no tumor（腫瘤）cells are left behind during surgery.“were in the early stages of this technology, and more development and testing will be done, but were certainly encouraged by the potential benefits to patients,” said breast surgeon julie margenthaler, an associate professor of surgery at washington university, who performed todays operation. “imagine what it would mean if these glasses removed the need for follow-up surgery and the associated pain, inconvenience and anxiety.” current standard of care requires surgeons to remove the tumor and some neighboring tissue that may or may not include cancer cells. if cancer cells are found in neighboring tissue, a second surgery often is recommended to remove additional tissue that also is checked for the presence of cancer.the glasses could reduce the need for additional surgical procedures and subsequent stress on patients, as well as time and expense.margenthaler said about 20 to 25 percent of breast cancer patients who have lumps removed require a second surgery because current technology doesnt adequately show the extent of the disease during the first operation.“our hope is that this new technology will reduce or ideally remove the need for a second surgery,” she said.ryan fields, a washington university assistant professor of surgery and siteman surgeon, plans to wear the glasses later this month when he operates to remove a melanoma（黑素瘤）from a patient. he said he welcomes the new technology, which theoretically could be used to visualize any type of cancer.“a limitation of surgery is that its not always clear to the naked eye the distinction between normal tissue and cancerous tissue,” fields said. “with the glasses developed by dr. achilefu, we can better identify the tissue that must be removed.”“this technology has great potential for patients and health-care professionals,”said achilefu, who also is co-leader of the oncologic imaging program at siteman cancer center, “our goal is to make sure no cancer is left behind.”the research is funded by the national cancer institute (r01ca171651) at the national institutes of health (nih).63. when viewed through the glasses, cancer cells will _.a. be accessible b. glow blue c. become big d. become small64. the underlined word “magnification” in the third paragraph can be replaced by _.a. prevention b. accuracy c. symptom d. enlargement65. from the fourth paragraph we can learn that _.a. julie margenthaler is in favor of the new technology b. current standard of care should be abandoned because of its limitationc. the high-tech glasses have brought benefits to patients as well as doctorsd. more testing on the high-tech glasses will be unnecessary though they are new66. wide application of the high-tech glasses can _.a. help surgeons find cancer cells easilyb. take the place of the current standard of care c. prevent the extent of cancer cells during the first operationd. relieve the pains of those who have problems with their eyesdfor my dads 60th birthday, iwanted to do something really fun. my dad and italked a lot about the past. inspired byjordan ferneys postcard birthday poster,i thought of an idea: what if i could get everyone from my dads past to contribute a memory they had of him? what if i had all those people send their memories to me, and then iput each one into an envelope sixty total, of course and had him open them, one by one, on his birthday?that would be a lot of memories, right?so i wrote an e-mail. isent it to family, to friends, to aunties and uncles wed grown up calling aunties and uncles even though they werent related by blood. this is what isaid:hello everyone!if youre receiving this email, you probably know that our dad, patrick burns, is turning 60 next month (much as he would hate us to be reminding everyone, im sure.) to celebrate his birthday, wed like to put together a little surprise to let him know that his nearest and dearest are thinking of him. were going to try and create “60 years of memories” by filling 60 envelopes with a memory his friends and family have of him.we do appreciate you taking a few minutes to do this; it will be so worth it when he reads all the memories people have of him! (please dont forget to keep it a surprise until then, though!)-holly, tom, luke, and susieso isent the e-mail and then iwaited. and then the replies started coming in and iwas shocked. there were so many memories, and they were all so lovely. they came from the 50s, the 60s, the 70s, from every decade between now and the day my dad was born. they came from my mother, my siblings, my grandma, my dads friends from high school, his sister, an old girlfriend, my mothers old boyfriend, my dads first boss, a colleague at his first job, from people who remembered people no longer with us, from people who hadnt seen my dad in forty years, from people ihadnt evencontactedoriginally but who had been told about the project by someone else. they typed them and handwrote them. they mailed them and e-mailed them. icollected them for two weeks, my heart pinging with excitement each time a new one arrived.the night before his birthday, my sister and i stayed up late, putting everything together. and then, on the morning of his birthday, after breakfast and presents and cake, we gave them to him. “just one more thing for you,” we said.it took him a really, really, really long time to open them. each one was a brief ticket to another time, a leap backwards over years and decades into the past. there was a
