As it is, sleep is so undervalued that getting by on fewer hours has become a badge of honor. Plus, we live in a culture that【C1】______to the late-nighter, from 24-hour grocery stores to online shopping sites that never close. It’s no surprise, then, that more than half of American adults don’t get the 7 to 9 hours of shut-eye every night as【C2】______by sleep experts.
Whether or not we can catch up on sleep—on the weekend, say—is a hotly【C3】______topic among sleep researchers. The latest evidence suggests that while it isn’t【C4】______, it might help. When Liu, the UCLA sleep researcher and professor of medicine, brought【C5】______sleep-restricted people into the lab for a weekend of sleep during which they logged about 10 hours per night, they showed【C6】______in the ability of insulin(胰岛素)to process blood sugar. That suggests that catch-up sleep may undo some but not all of the damage that sleep【C7】______causes, which is encouraging, given how many adults don’t get the hours they need each night. Still, Liu isn’t【C8】______to endorse the habit of sleeping less and making up for it later.
Sleeping pills, while helpful for some, are not【C9】______an effective remedy either. "A sleeping pill will【C10】______one area of the brain, but there’s never going to be a perfect sleeping pill, because you couldn’t really replicate(复制)the different chemicals moving in and out of different parts of the brain to go through the different stages of sleep," says Dr. Nancy Collop, director of the Emory University Sleep Center.
A)alternatively I)negotiated

选项
答案
L
解析
该空格位于系动词is之后,动词不定式to endorse之前,可填入形容词,综合上下文考虑,应选择ready,be ready to是固定搭配,意思是“乐意的,准备好的”。本句含义为“但是,刘教授并不愿意认可这种先是睡眠不足,然后再补觉的生活习惯”。备选项中只剩ready一个可选形容词。
