You might think that most of the patients at sleep clinic are being treated for sleeplessness, commonly referred to as insomnia, but that is not the case. The majority of sleep-clinic patients suffer from disorders of excessive sleep—or hypersomnia. While most insomniacs somehow manage to drag themselves through the day and function at acceptable, although not optimal levels, this is not so for people who suffer from hypersomnia.
They are incapacitated by irresistible urges to sleep during the day, often in inappropriate situations—at business meetings, in supermarkets, or at parties. Even more dangerous is their failure to remain awake when driving or operating machinery. Falling asleep in such situations could obviously be life-threatening.
Many hypersomniacs suffer from narcolepsy, for which the primary symptom is excessive daytime sleepiness. Though not apparent in childhood, this symptom most often appears for the first time during the teen years and continues throughout a person’s life. The sleep attacks may occur as many as fifteen to twenty times during the course of the day and last for periods from fifteen minutes up to two hours.
What can be done to help those suffering from narcolepsy? There are certain drugs that can help, and specialists suggest voluntary napping to decrease the frequency of such sleep attacks.
9. What is "hypersomnia"?
10. What does the speaker say about sleep-clinic patients?
11. When does narcolepsy usually first become apparent?
12. What can a narcoleptic do to prevent sleep attacks?
选项
A、Difficulty filling asleep.
B、Excessive sleepiness.
C、Frequent nightmares.
D、Voluntary napping.
答案
B
解析
说话者在一开始就对人们的一种认识进行了否定,即治疗睡眠问题的诊所里的大多数病人并非患有失眠症(insomnia),而是相反的情况:“excessive sleep”,也就是“hypersomnia”(嗜睡)。一般有比较难的生僻词出现的时候,其前面或后面都会有解释的语句,因此看到关于生僻词的题目,就要注意听这个词第一次出现时它前后的内容。因此选B。
