答案
From artificial lights to late-night TV and now our smartphones, / modern life is often blamed for ruining our sleep./ But a recent study in the United States suggests/ our ancestors didn’t get any more sleep than we do./ The researchers monitored societies where people lived like ancient hunter-gatherers. / They found they slept on average six and a half hours a night./ Surprisingly, natural light didn’t have as big an influence as was thought./ Most people fell asleep hours after sunset. / However, temperature was important and the morning’s coldest point / was when most people woke up.
解析
本文主题:现代人和古人的睡眠。因为是现代人与古人的对比,所以本文在时态上既有现在时也有过去时,听写时需要注意。第二句以But开头,可以作为一句独立句,也可以与第一句相连。注意以下词语的拼写和时态:artificial,smartphone,ruining,ancestors,monitored,average,influence,和temperature。Late-night和hunter-gatherer的连字符可以不要,smartphone也可写成两个单词。
