Judging from recent surveys, most experts in sleep behavior agree that there is virtually an epidemic of sleepiness in the nation. "I can’t think of a single study that hasn’t found Americans getting less sleep than they ought to." says Dr. David.
The beginning of our sleep deficit crisis can be【C1】______ to the invention of the light bulb a century ago. From diary entries and other personal【C2】______ from the 18th and 19th centuries, sleep scientists have reached the conclusion that the average person used to sleep about 9.5 hours a night. By the 1950s and 1960s, that sleep schedule had been reduced【C3】______ to between 7.5 and 8 hours, and most people had to wake to an alarm clock. "People cheat on their sleep, and they don’t even【C4】______ they’re doing it," says Dr. David. "They think they’re okay because they can get by on 6.5 hours, when they really need 7.5, 8 or even more to feel ideally【C5】______
Perhaps the most merciless robber of sleep, researchers say, is the【C6】______ of the day. Whenever pressures from work, family, friends and community mount, many people consider sleep the least【C7】______ item on the agenda. "In our society, you’re considered dynamic if you say you only need 5.5 hours’ sleep. If you say you’ve got to get 8.5 hours, people think you lack【C8】______ and ambition."
To assess the【C9】______ of sleep deficit, researchers have put subjects through a set of psychological and performance tests. "We’ve found that if you’re sleep-deprived, performance【C10】______ says Dr. David. "Short-term memory is impaired, as are abilities to make decisions and to concentrate."
A) consequences B) complexity C) ingenious D) dramatically
E) suffers F) tracked G) realize H) expensive
I) slightly J) traced K) detaches L) vigorous
M) inspiration N) accounts O) drive
【C10】
选项
答案
E
解析
此处需填入谓语动词,由主语performance可知是第三人称单数形式。根据后文提到的Short-term memory is impaired(短期记忆受损)等,可知在sleep-deprived(睡眠不足)的情况下,行为应该会受到不良影响,故suffers“受损害”符合语境。
