The old traditional saying about sleeping with one eye open in an unfamiliar place may not be too far off the mar. Over the course of three eperiments on 35young and healthy volunteers, researchers in a new study measured brain activity during two continuous nights of sleep.
Sasai and colleagues performed a series of lab tests by stimulating the left and then the right hemisphere(大脑的半球)with sounds. On the second night, there wasn’t any difference in reactions to tests between the left and right hemispheres, even during deep sleep. This suggests that there is a first-night-only effect specifically in one hemisphere of the brain during deep sleep, the authors conclude. The way participants responded to the sleep lab tests points to the potential for the brain to be on high alert for danger during the first night in unfamiliar surroundings. While this may be bad news for business travelers who regularly mae brief overnight trips, it may not be as troublesome for people who go away for longer periods of time, Sasai added by email. “Frequent travel may lead to unrestful sleep,” Sasai said. “But if you stay for a few days at the same place, your sleep might catch up.”
Some birds have been found to actually sleep with one eye open and one side of the brain awae when they’re in a dangerous setting, and some marine mammals have similar abilities, the authors note. But the new study focuses on healthy volunteers but not people with insomnia or other sleep disorders, the authors note.
“The clinical implications haven’t been confirmed at the moment,” Finan, a psychiatry （精神医学）and behavioral health researcher said. “However, the level of specificity provided by these analyses could be an important first step in understanding what sleep disorders lie insomnia(失眠) arise from, which is thought to be driven in many patients by continuing having a lot of worries.”
33. What do the underlined words “may not be too far off the mar” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. May mae sense B. May be ridiculous.
C. May cause arguments D. May be disturbing.
34. What can we now from Paragraph 3?
A. People are used to waing up and going to bed early when travelling. B. Business travelers usually have a brief sleep at night.
C. It brings much trouble to those who stay far away from their homes. D. It taes time for people to adapt themselves to a new environment. 35. According to Finan, the study is helpful in ________. A. finding out the root cause of sleep disorders B. telling the effect of worries on sleep disorders
