There are new findings that not enough sleep may cause people to gain weight.Researchers say a lack of sleep can produce hormonal changes that increase feelings of hunger.

In one study,researchers in the United States examined information on more than 1000 people.The people had taken part in a long-term study of sleep disorders.

Some people slept less than five hours a night.They had 15 percent higher blood levels of a hormone called ghrelin than people who slept eight hours.And they had 15 percent less of the hormone leptin.Experts say ghrelin helps make people feel hungry;leptin makes you feel full.

The scientists say these hormonal changes may be a cause of obesity in Western societies.They note the combination that limitation is common and is widely available.

The results were not affected by how much people exercised.People who are awake longer have more time to burn energy.But the researchers say loss of sleep may increase hunger especially  for high-calorie foods,so people gain weight.It seems that,for survival,the body may be designed to store more fat during times with less sleep.

Researchers from Stanford University in California and the University of Wisconsin did the study.They found that the best amount of sleep for weight control is 7.7 hours a night.

The Public Library of Science published the findings in its journal Medicine.Internet users can read the full study,free of charge,at plos.org.

Which of the following shows the right way in which lack of sleep causes weight gain?

A.more ghrelin and less leptin→feeling hungry→eating more

B.feeling hungry→eating more→more ghrelin and less leptin

C.burning more energy→feeling hungry→eating more

“Seven out of ten people have tried to learn a language at some point in their life and most wish they could speak one more fluently,” a survey found. “And nine out of ten people want their children to learn foreign languages at primary school,” said the poll for the OCR Examing Board (牛津劍橋皇家考試委員會).Languages are no longer compulsory(義務(wù)的)for pupils aged 14 and over. But the government wants all primary school pupils in England to learn a language by the end of the decade.

A survey of 1000 people was carried out, which is organised by the National Centre of Language .The study suggested people in London were the most likely(78%) to have studied another language, Scots were next at 74%, followed by the northeast of England (71%).In the west of England, more than six in ten have knowledge of another language.

Barrie Hunt from OCR said, “People are often very negative about Britain，s grasp of foreign languages but in reality the number of people who can speak a second language is impressive. The great joke is that many of these people will have no formal qualification to show their family, friends and employers what they can do. Whether they are fluent or just able to hold a short conversation in another language is unknown.”

He said OCR had set a new language scheme called Asset Languages to encourage people of all ages to learn languages in bite-sized amounts and get a qualification.

The scheme also provides assessment for community languages spoken at home, such as Chinese, Urdu and Punjabi.

Isabella Moore from the National Centre of Languages said, “Employers want evidence of good communication skills, confidence and outward-looking attitudes, so a language qualification is an important addition to anyone，s resume.”

It can be inferred that___________________________ .

A. foreign language study is popular in UK

B. foreign language study is a must for people of all ages

C. it is especially easy for British people to study foreign languages

D. students of over 14 no longer study foreign languages

Which of the following has the most to have studied a foreign language?

A. People from Scotland.              B. People from the northeast of England.

C. People in London.                 D. People from the west of England.

Which statement is true according to the text?

A. A language qualification is the only evidence of a high-quality employee.

B. Speaking foreign languages is the most important skill required in employment among all.

C. A language qualification is very difficult to get in UK.

D. Many people in UK don，t have a qualification although they can speak foreign languages.

What’s the best title for the text?

A. An Interesting Survey                 B. UK Loves After All

C. Language Teaching in UK              D. Better to Get a Language Qualification
