二、听力原文

Passage 1
A report on sleep and nutrition released this month found that people who consistently went to bed earlier than 11 p. m. took in fewer calories and ate more healthy food.
In contrast, "night owls" who go to bed between 11 p. m. and 3 a. m. tend to consume more coffee, alcohol, refined sugars, and processed meats than early risers.
This report corresponds with the existing scientific literature on bedtime and wellness.
The relationship between getting more sleep and making better food choices is well-documented.
A study published last year in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that people who sleep more tend to eat less unhealthy food than their peers who don't get as much rest.
And a 2015 study from the University of California, Berkeley, found that teens who go to bed late are more likely to gain weight over a five-year period.
As a group, "night owl" types tend to eat less healthy food and take in more calories overall than early risers.
The later one goes to bed, the more calories one records the next day.
It's as yet a challenge to explain the cause-and-effect relationship between sleep and nutrition.
There may be a third factor that impacts both of them, or the relationship could be reversed, that is, people who eat less fall asleep earlier.
Still, if late sleepers want to lose a few pounds, they can go to bed earlier than they usually do, thereby reducing their chances of taking snacks before bedtime.

9. What do we learn about the report released this month?
10. What does the study from the University of California, Berkeley, find about teens who go to bed late?
11. What should "night owls" do to reduce their consumption of unhealthy food?

三、答案

9. B
10. C
11. D

【翻译】

本月发表了一篇有关睡眠和营养的报告，发现保持晚上11点前睡觉的人摄入更少卡路里，更多吃食健康食物。

与此相反，晚上11点到凌晨3点才睡觉的"夜猫子"会比早起者消耗更多咖啡、酒精、精制糖和加工肉。

关于就寝时间和健康已有的科学文献与该报告相一致。

更多睡眠与更好的食物选择之间的关系有充分的证据。

去年《美国临床营养学期刊》发表了一篇研究，发现较于睡眠较少的同龄人，睡眠多的人更少吃不健康食物。

2015年加州大学伯克利分校发表了一篇研究，发现晚睡的青少年在研究的五年中更可能长胖。

总体来讲，夜猫子比早起者更少吃健康食物，还会摄入更多卡路里。

睡得越晚，第二天记录摄入的卡路里就越多。

至今仍很难解释睡眠和营养间的因果关系。

可能存在第三个因素影响这两者，或者关系可能倒过来，也就是吃得少的人睡得早。

不过，如果迟睡者想减肥，可以比平时早点睡，从而减少睡前吃零食的可能性。

请根据你刚刚听到的对话回答问题9至问题11。

问题9：有关本月发表的报告我们知道些什么？

问题10：加州大学伯克利分校的研究有关迟睡的青少年发现了什么？

问题11：夜猫子应当做什么来减少不健康食物的食用？
