36、e, it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes; it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pyjamas（睡衣）.Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule
37、.All human beings possess a body clock. Along with other alerting（警报）systems, this governs the sleep/ wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour. Typically, the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents, which leads to many students not feeling slee
38、py until much later in the evenings. This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the “night owl” schedule of sleep.This is opposed to the “early bird” schedule, and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight.

39、p in the mornings. Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night.

40、ddle.

43、talk about?A. Functions of the body clock.B. The “night owl” phenomenon.C. Human beings sleep behaviour.D. The school schedule of “early bird”.EWomen are friendly. But men are more competitive, Why? Researchers have found its all down to the hormone oxytocin(荷尔蒙催生素). Although known as the love hormo
44、ne, it affects the sexes differently.“Women tend to be social in their behavior. They often share with others, But men tend to be competitive, They are trying to improve their social status,” said Professor Ryan.Generally, people believe that the hormone exytocin is let out in our body in various so
45、cial situations and our body creates a large amount of it during positive social interaction（互动）such as falling in love or giving birth.But in a previous experiment Professor Ryan found that the hormone is also let out in our body during negative social interactions such as envy.Further researches s
46、howed that in men the hormone oxytocin improves the ability to recognize competitive relationships, but in women it raises the ability to recognize friendship.Professor Ryans recent experiment used 62 men and women aged 20 to 37.Half of the participants（参与者）received oxytocin. The other half received
47、 placebo（安慰剂）.After a week, the two groups switched with participants. They went through the same procedure with the other material.Following each treatment, they were shown some video pictures with different social interactions. Then they were asked to analyze the relationships by answering some qu
48、estions. The questions were about telling friendship from competition. And their answers should be based on gestures, body language and facial expressions.The results indicated that, after treatment with oxytocin, mens ability to correctly recognize competitive relationships improved, but in women i
49、t was the ability to correctly recognize friendship that got better.Professor Ryan thus concluded: “ Our experiment proves that the hormone oxytocin can raise peoples abilities to better distinguish different social interactions. And the behavior differences between men and women are caused by biolo
50、gical factor（因素）that are mainly hormonal.”47. What causes men and women to behave differently according to the text?A. Placebo. B. Oxytocin. C. The gesture. D. The social status.48. What can we learn from Professor Ryans previous experiment?A. Oxytocin affects our behavior in a different way.B. Our
51、body lets out oxytocin when we are deep in love.C. Our body produces oxytocin when we feel unhappy about others success.D. Oxytocin improves our abilities to understand peoples behavior differences.49. Why did Professor Ryan conduct the recent experiment?A. To test the effect of oxytocin on the abil
52、ity to recognize social interactions.B. To know the differences between friendship and competition.C. To know peoples different abilities to answer questions.D.
