七年级下 Unit 1—Unit 4

一、阅读理解

When you are busy with your schoolwork, you might find it hard to get enough sleep. We all know that not getting enough sleep is bad for our health. But it has been found that less sleep could even cause you to have fewer friends, The Guardian reported.

According to researchers from the University of California, people who don't get enough sleep are less willing to socialize with others. They are simply too tired to go out.

The researchers did a small study. They tested 18 young people who just had a good night's sleep and tested them again after a sleepless night. The participants watched videos of people with neutral expressions walking toward them. When the person in the video got too "close" to them, they pushed a button to stop the video.

The results showed that people kept the person at a distance of 60 percent further if they hadn't gotten enough sleep. They felt that their personal space was being invaded. But when the participants got a good night's sleep, they allowed the person to get much closer to them.

According to the lead researcher Matthew Walker, the less sleep you get, the less you want to socialize with others. In turn, other people may think you are strange and stay away from you. This can make you feel lonely and cause you to sleep even less. It becomes a vicious cycle.

So if you want to be a more sociable and popular person, sleeping well might help. "One night of

good sleep makes you feel more outgoing and socially confident," Walker told the Daily Mail.
