The next time this happens to you,think back if you have had enough sleep over the last 3-5 days. Many adults and even teens have noticed that they crave"midnight snacks"when working or watching TV late. New research shows that lack of sleep could lead us to have an increased apperite )especially for the unhealthy kind. Recently,researchers at the University of Chicago carried out a study that clearly shows that a lack 第3页共8页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描App of sleep actually changes our brain chemistry!Studies were done on two control groups over four days. Both groups had their food and sleep strictly controlled.All of them received three meals.The only difference was that one group was allowed to sleep for 7.5 hours while the other group slept for a little more than four hours. During the following visit,their sleep patterns were exchanged.After the last night of the session, the volunteers were offered as much food as they wanted to eat.Researchers noticed that in both sessions,people who slept less ate on average 300 calories more than those who had slept more.This was much more calories than what their bodies would need to make up for the three fewer hours of sleep. The researchers then analyzed the chemicals in the blood of the people in the study.What they noticed was surprising.High levels of ghrelin(a chemical that makes us hungry)and lower levels of leptin(the chemical that tells the brain that it is satisfied)were found in the people with less sleep. Even more surprising was that this group had higher levels of endocannabinoidsthe same chemical that is caused by drugs.The endocannabinoid system causes a craving for sugar and fatty foods and leads to overeating even when the body is not hungry.This study suggests that sleep changes help produce chemicals in the body that are similar to taking drugs! Furthermore,researchers noticed that food cravings continued for a long period of time,well after the lack of sleep.This increases the risk of over-eating for longer periods,leading to obesity ) Your body needs 7-8 hours of sleep each night.So,the next time you reach for a bag of chips or a slice of decadent cake,think of the amount of sleep you have had recently!

They have more than one million listeners on Spotify every month.But it wasn't just the music that came from AI.The pictures of the band members and the stories about them were also made up by AI. 17When they found out,some thought the songs should have been clearly marked as AI-made. So,does it matter if music is created by AI? Yes,it should have a warning.18It's connected to human experiences and emotions, and often carries powerful messages.Music that has been created by a.computer just doesn't have the same depth,so listeners should be told if music is made by AI.19 Not giving the artists credit when their work has been used is really unfair.Also,AI changes very fast,so it's important to clearly mark AI-made music. No,it doesn't matter how music is made.20It's the end result that matters.If people can't tell that music has been made using Al,then surely it's just as good as the real thing.AI can also help musicians who don't have expensive tools.Technology has been used in music for many years. This is simply the next step.If AI music has a warning,should remakes of old songs have warnings too? A.At first,people didn't know this. B.AI can make life easier,but some people also worry about it. C.As long as people like the way music sounds,does it matter how it was made? D.Creating music with AI makes music more important to people. E.Some artists say their music is used to train AI without asking them first. F.Music is so much more than just a tune and lyrics. 第二部分语篇运用（共二节，满分25分) 第5页共8页 CS扫描全能王 同壁3亿人都在用的扫描App 第一节完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面语篇，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My mother used to ask me what is the most important part of the body.Through the years,I kept trying to give the correct answer.
