But that same state is responsible for your morning sleepiness. To get your body going, Vanderkam recommends doing some stretches, drinking some water or taking a shower right after your alarm goes off.NIGHT OWLS GET A BADRAP, so lets get one thing out of the way: there is nothing wrong with staying up late as long as youre getting a good amount of sleep every night. Similarly, early risers have no special biological advantage: recent research has upset the long-held belief that morning people are healthier than late risers. What research has not disproved, however, is that morning people tend to get more done.The productivity expert Laura Vanderkam argues that people should consider switching their schedule not because its necessarily better but because its practical.“People find morning hours useful because its time you have to yourself before everybody else wants a piece of you,”Vanderkam says. Waking up earlier to work out, make headway on a creative project or enjoy a stress-free cup of coffee (without a smartphone in your hand) can help make it easier to accomplish more without sacrificing time for yourself.Here, some advice from the expert on how to pull it off.MIND YOUR EXPOSUREMorning light exposure can help adjust your internal clock and regulate your levels of the sleep hormone melatonin (褪黑激素),making you less out of it when you rise. “Getting morning light immediately sends your body a wake-up signal,” says Vanderkam.REWARD YOURSELFHumans do not naturally avoid punishment, so if your morning routine feels like one, its time to change how you start your day. Instead of warring with the snooze button, motivate yourself with a reward. Vanderkam suggests you treat yourself to something-a fried egg, a fancy coffee-that will get you moving.DO SOMETHING OTHER THAN WORKSome of the most successful larks Vanderkam has interviewed say they start the day doing something they truly enjoy. So instead of reading the news on your tablet, consider meeting a friend for a jog or writing in a journal. “Its a lot easier to get up and do something you want to do than something you dont says Vanderkam.56. According to Laura Vanderkam, morning people_.A. are healthier than late risersB. are more efficient than late risersC. have to share others1 responsibilitiesD. complete creative tasks on the smartphone57. Vanderkam advises early risers to_in the morning.A. draw the curtain asideB. turn to the tablet for newsC. cook breakfast on their ownD. fall back asleep in minutesBThe rate of deaths related to Alzheimers (阿尔茨海默)disease jumped by 54.5 percent over 15 years, according to a new report from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).The disease currently affects an estimated 5.5 million people in the U.S. but that number is expected to rise dramatically in people over the age of 65 to 13.8 million in 2050. The researchers examined death certificate data from the National Vital Statistics System to reach their findings.Keith Fargo, director of the scientific program at the Alzheimers Association, said that the study highlights the need for support and research into treatment of Alzheimers disease.“Its the only cause of death in the top 10 that does not have a way to prevent it or stop it” Fargo told ABC News.CDC researchers did not study why there was an increase but reported the result of the phenomenon may be that more people were surviving to old age. They found from 1999 to 2005 the greatest increase in death rate related to Alzheimers disease was in people over the age of 85.Fargo said he was discouraged to see in the report that 24.9 percent of people with Alzheimers disease were dying at home rather than in a medical facility.“Before you die people become completely bed bound,” said Fargo. “It requires an intense level of caregiving to the end.”Fargo said the fact that more people were dying at home indicated that people did not have the resources to get appropriate help at long-term care facilities like nursing homes. Fargo said providing that level of care can burden the caregivers both emotionally and physically. The CDC estimates caregivers provided 18.2 billion hours of unpaid care to dementia (痴呆)patients in 2015.“The caregivers for Alzheimers disease have $9 billion more in Medicare claims of their own,” in addition to the claims of their loved ones Fargo said. Caregiving is “so stressful it causes a lot of physical suffering.”The CDC researchers point out that increasing rates of Alzheimers disease will mean more people need support to care and treat these patients.“Until Alzheimers can be prevented, slowed, or stopped, caregiving for persons with advanced Alzheimers will remain a demanding task,” the authors wrote. “An increasing number of Alzheimers deaths coupled with an increasing number of patients dying at home suggests that there is an increasing number of caregivers of persons with Alzheimers. It is likely that these caregivers might benefit from interventions such as education, and case management that can reduce the potential burden of caregiving.58. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?A. There exist ways to prevent or stop Alzheimers disease.B. Alzheimers disease affects a total of 13.8 million Americans.C. Not all Alzheimers patients can afford to live in care facilities.D. People under the age of 65 will not devel
