Newborn babies, unlike adults, cannot recognize day and night and will take time to adjust to the
24-hour clock. Therefore, the first few weeks of the baby's life go in sleeping for the most of the time in
the day and at night as well. Though infant sleep patterns will be different for each baby, there is a
common pattern that one can observe in the sleeping pattern of little children.
The infant sleeping patterns can be divided into active sleep and deep sleep. When the baby is put to
sleep, she remains in the active sleep mode for a long time where you can see her frequent body
movements, irregular breathing as well as brief cries. At this stage, the baby can easily wake up as she
isn't fully asleep. However, if she isn't disturbed at this stage, she'll quickly pass into the deep sleep stage. On the other hand, in case of infants, they spend more time in the active stage than in the deep sleep
stage, so they wake up within a short time after going to sleep.
Babies wake up during the active stage mainly due to hunger. Infants have little tummies (胃) and the
milk they drink gets digested very quickly and therefore, they start feeling hungry within a short period
of time. In addition, they wake up in the sleep because they need warmth or possibly don't receive
sufficient air to breathe.
Some sleep researchers associate night waking with the infant's survival instincts
(本能). A baby who has learned to sleep in the deep sleep stage for a long time may not be able to
wake up, if she's hungry or even when she's getting suffocated(使窒息). This can be dangerous for the
infant's life, so it can be said that the active sleep stage actually protects the baby.
Besides, research has found the blood flow to the brain actually doubles up during the active stage
and that the brain is in the act of processing the information it receives during the time when the baby is
awake. Therefore, it can be said that active sleep is important for making the baby's brain develop more
rapidly.

考点
据考高分专家说，试题“任务型阅读。 请认真阅读下列.....”主要考查你对 [日常生活类阅读 ]考点的理解。日常生活类阅读
日常生活类阅读的概念：
日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作，生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时，最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容，时间和地点。
日常生活类阅读题答题技巧：
【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
