New research shows a good night’s rest

isn’t a luxury–it’s critical for your brain and for your health As it is，sleep is so undervalued that getting by on fewer hours has become a badge of honor. Plus，we live in a culture that caters to the late-nighter，from 24-hour grocery stores to online shopping sites that never close. It’s no surprise，then，that more than half of American adults don’t get the 7 to 9 hours of shut-eye every night as recommended

by sleep experts.

Whether or not we can catch up on sleep–on the weekend，say–is a hotly debated topic among sleep researchers；the latest evidence suggests that while it isn’t ideal，it might help. When Liu，the UCLA sleep researcher and professor of medicine，brought chronically sleep-restricted people into the lab for a weekend of sleep during which they logged about 10 hours per night，they showed improvements in the ability of insulin to process blood sugar. That suggests that catch-up sleep may undo some but not all of the damage that sleep deprivation causes，which is encouraging given how many adults don’t get the hours they need each night. Still，Liu isn’t ready to endorse the habit of sleeping less and making up for it later.

Sleeping pills，while helpful for some，are not necessarily a silver bullet either. “A sleeping pill will target one area of the brain，but there’s never going to be a perfect sleeping pill，because you couldn’t really replicate the different chemicals moving in and out of different parts of the brain to go through the different stages of sleep，”says Dr. Nancy Collop，director of the Emory University Sleep Center.

36. B. caters 空格左是定语从句引导词that，并且that指代的是前面的a culture，所以空格内应该填一个第三人称单数形式的动词与介词to搭配.cater to表示“迎合”，原句译为：“另外，我们生活在一个迎合着晚睡者的文化里，从24小时营业的杂货店到线上售货店

都从不关门.”

37. M. recommended 空格左是as，右边是介词by，推测空格内应该填一个动词的过去分词形式，结合语义，7到9小时睡眠应该是专家XX的，所以选择“推荐”.

38. D. debated 空格左边有hotly，右边为topic，空格内应填一个形容词，理解为“热烈地xxx的话题”，结合语义，故选“被讨论的”

39. F. ideal 空格与左边的it isn’t共同构成主系表结构，空格内一般选择形容词或带冠词的名词，结合...while...might help. 理解为“尽管它是xxx的，它仍然是有用的”，所以选”理想的”，符合语境.

40. C. chronically brought为谓语，空格右边是形容词，空格内应该填副词修饰右边的形容词.结合语义，选“长期地”来修饰“失眠的人”.

41. G. improvements 空格左边直接就是谓语show，空格内极有可能是一个复数名词，而且“进步”也符合原意.

42. E. deprivation that引导一个定语从句修饰the damage，
