Question

Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies in their bodies. At that time---about eight hours after you wake up, your body temperature goes down. This is what makes slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern(模式). They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world, people take naps(小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that _____________ are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from heart disease.
Many working people, unluckily, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers(雇主們) do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making use of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap--- even ten minutes sleep can be helpful.

試題分析：這篇短文主要講述了人們累了或者是在夏天的午后都會(huì)休息或睡覺，休息好對(duì)于人們的身體是有好處的。
小題1:回答問題。根據(jù)短文第一段However, the real reason lies in their bodies. At that time---about eight hours after you wake up, your body temperature goes down.。故答案是Because their body temperatures go down at that time (and that makes them （slow down and） feel sleepy).
小題2:補(bǔ)全單詞使句子完整理解題。根據(jù)上下文，可知小睡對(duì)人們的身體好。故填naps
小題3:英漢互譯題。Unluckily詞義是不幸的是，have no time to do表示沒有時(shí)間做某事。故答案是不幸的是很多勞動(dòng)者(工作的人們)沒有時(shí)間小睡
小題4:回答問題。根據(jù)文中At that time---about eight hours after you wake up, your body temperature goes down.可知如果你早上六點(diǎn)半起床，最好的小睡時(shí)間是14:30.。故填14:30.
小題5:標(biāo)題歸納題。keep+名詞+形容詞，通讀全文可知主要講述的是小睡對(duì)人們的身體有好處。故答案Naps are good for health./Naps are helpful to health. /Naps/All need a nap.。
