Everybody does it, from fruit flies to Homo sapiens. Yet 31 its clear necessity and lots of investigation,scientists still do not know precisely what sleep is for.Is it to refresh the body? Not really. Researchers have 32 to find any vital biological function that sleep restores.As far as anyone can tell, muscles do not need sleep, just intermittent periods of relaxation.

The teacher students hand in the assignment before they left the classroom. (A)did (B)made (C)told (D)talked請依下文回答第38 題至第42 題What to write about is the first problem of a student who must periodically submit a theme or an essay. This questionarises not from actual lack of material but from 38 to take the right view of the material one has. A short reflectionshould convince the student that he or she thinks about many things; and a solution to the problem will be found partly atleast in an examination of what he or she already has in mind. One of the great 39 of education comes when weperceive that there is no such thing as a naturally uninteresting subject. Anything can be interesting if one knows enoughabout it. A certain amount of imagination is required and a certain focusing of the view, of course, but there is no reasonwhy a small thing should be of small interest, or why a familiar one should be 40 rich possibilities. The automobileis an exceedingly commonplace object in American life, yet with the right approach it becomes a subject of commandinginterest to the economist, to the engineer, or to the prospective vacationer. Perhaps few things arouse so little thought asthe table salt, yet when salt is considered in relation to living organisms, in connection with certain historical movements,or with regard to its industrial uses, it is 41 transformed into a subject of extraordinary interest. These are examplesof ordinary objects capable of 42 treatment, and it is precisely this kind of connection that the student must makebetween his stock of knowledge and its opportunities for development and interpretation.

So it is with the truism with which webegin: all educational practice implies a theoretical stance on the educator’s part. This stance in turn implies—sometimesmore, sometimes less explicitly—an interpretation of man and the world. It could not be otherwise. The process of men’sorientation in the world involves not just the association of sense and images, as for animals. It involves, above all,thought-language; that is, the possibility of the act of knowing through his praxis, by which man transforms reality. Forman, this process of orientation in the world can be understood neither as a purely subjective event, nor as an objective ormechanistic one, but only as an event in which subjectivity and objectivity are united. Orientation in the world, sounderstood, places the question of the purposes of action at the level of critical perception of reality.If, for animals, orientation in the world means adaptation to the world, for man it means humanizing the world bytransforming it. For animals there is no historical sense, no options or values in their orientation in the world; for manthere is both a historical and a value dimension. Men have the sense of “project,” in contrast to the instinctive routines ofanimals.

(C)Women are able to rid themselves of wrinkles and unwelcome folds around the chin if they are successful in life. (D)Women should make efforts to avoid wrinkles and unwelcome folds around the chin when they become aged.

And Spaniards most especially do it—every day, in broad daylight. They nap. 47 Fromone or two o’clock to 4:30 or so every afternoon, Spain stops the world for a stroll home, a leisurely meal, and a few z’s.Common Market technocrats have informed the Spanish that this is not the way things will get done in a unified Europe.At a time when productivity is the world’s largest religion, the siesta tradition lives on. 48 No task is so criticalthat it cannot wait a couple of hours while you attend to more important matters like eating, relaxing, or catching up onsleep. When the midday break hits, offices empty and streets clear. Befuddled foreigners quickly learn that they haveentered a new circadian order.Taking a long break in the middle of the day is not only healthier than the conventional lunch; it is apparently morenatural. 49 Studies suggest that humans are “biphasic” creatures, requiring days broken up by two periods of sleepinstead of one “monophasic” shift. The drowsiness you feel after lunch comes not from the food but from the time of theday.“All animals, including humans, have a biological rhythm,” explains Claudio Stampi, director of the Chrono BiologyResearch Institute in Newton, Massachusetts. “One is a 24-hour rhythm—we get tired by the end of the day and go tosleep—and there is a second peak of sleepiness and a decrease in alertness in the early afternoon. 50 For others it isless difficult, but it is there. So there is a biological reason for siestas.”
