Languages are considered to be endangered when parents are no longer teaching the language to their children and are not using it actively in ev

2、eryday life. A language is considered to nearly disappear when it is spoken by only a few elderly native speakers. The world faces enormous challenges in order to protect different kinds of languages. Of the more than 6,912 languages, half may be in danger of disappearing in the next several decades

3、. It is caused by many reasons: small numbers of speakers, the regular use of other languages, attitudes towards their languages, moving of the younger population, government policies, and languages used in education and so on. A language may lack important things such as a body of literature, and p

4、eople who read and write it. A language may also lack prestige (声望 ) and support of its speakers. The survival of a language is also threatened when speakers move to other areas where different languages are spoken, or when government policies improve the use of a specific language in school, offici

5、al business and the media. These situations encourage people to learn the wider-known language and may cause them, especially the young, to stop using their mothertongue. Often those speaking lesser-known languages will choose to learn a more prestigious language with the hope of greater economic op

To find the answer, sleep rese

11、archers at Massachusetts General Hospital conducted an unusual study of 12 self-described deep sleepers. After tests confirmed that the healthy volunteers were solid sleepers, they took part in a three-night study in the university s sleep laboratory. The participants spent the night in a big and co

12、mfortable room. But the room also included four 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 2 页，共 11 页speakers positioned near the top of the bed. During the night, the deep sleepers were subjected to 14 different recorded sounds, like street traffic, toilets flushing, and an airplane flying over

13、head. Next door, the researchers monitored their sleep patterns and brain waves. As expected, all of the participants slept relatively well, but there were differences in how they responded to the noisy interruptions. Some of the sleepers didn t wake up even when a sound was blasted at 70 decibels（分

14、贝）； others were awakened by sounds at 40 or 50 decibels. The researchers discovered that the difference in a sleeper s reaction to noise could be predicted by the level of brain activity called “ sleep spindles（纺锤体）” . A sleep spindle is a burst of high-frequency brain activity coming from deep insi

15、de the brain during sleep. The source of the spindles is the thalamus （丘脑）, a part of the brain that sends sensory information to the rest of the cortex（皮层） . Before the study, the Massachusetts researchers theorized that the spindles are the brain s way of preventing sensory information from passin

16、g through the thalamus and waking the rest of the brain during sleep. They found that sleepers who experienced the most sleep spindles during the night were also the soundest sleepers and were least likely to be awakened by noise. Scientists already know that most people become lighter sleepers with

17、 age, most likely because older people experience less “ slow wave sleep ” , which is the deepest stage of sleep. People also produce fewer sleep spindles as they age. But even when controlling for the stage of sleep a person was in, the number of sleep spindles still predicted their risk for awaken

18、ing because of noise. More research is needed, but the findings suggest that a better understanding of sleep spindles could lead to new behavioral or drug therapies for people with sleep disorders. For example, future studies may try to determine whether diet, exercise or other behaviors may influen

19、ce the number of sleep spindles a person produces during the night. 71. Some participants can sleep well through loud noises mainly because _. A. their brains don t respond to outside noises. B. their brains react differently to noises. C. they adapt too the environment quickly. D. they don t pay at
