Question number 4 to 6 are based on the
following text.
Sleepiness after eating is a response of the
body to chemical changes during the digestion
process. This is normal and it happens to
everybody. However, if sleepiness occurs every
time after eating and obstructs your ability to
function, this may be a concern. Sleepiness
after eating is caused by many factors, such as
the type of food you consume, messy sleeping
habits, your health condition and so forth. The
body requires energy to function and this
energy is obtained through food. Post-eating,
the body releases hormones such as amylin,
glucagon and cholecystokinin. These hormones
increase blood sugar levels, creating a feeling
of fullness and producing insulin that will be
streamed through cell tissues and provide
energy for them. At the same time, the brain
releases serotonin that causes drowsiness.
Moreover, food also influences melatonin
production in the brain. This is the hormone
that is responsible for sleepiness post-meal.
Some foods that are rich in protein, such as
meat, poultry, eggs, fish, spinach, tofu, cheese
and soybeans can trigger more drowsiness
than others. Additionally, foods containing
carbohydrates also help produce serotonin and
tryptophan amino acids found in the brain. This
is the reason why you feel sleepy after eating
carbohydrate-rich foods.
PTS GANJIL-SMA LOGOS-T.P 2021-2022
Overeating can also cause sleepiness. Post-
meal, the body streams more blood to the
digestive system to better digest foods in
massive amounts. This causes a temporary
blood and nutrients shortage in the brain. To
prevent post-meal drowsiness, it’s better to eat
a balanced diet containing vegetables, grains
and good fats to provide continuous energy.
Drink lots of water and limit your sugar intake.
Bad sleeping patterns can also cause sleepiness
after eating. After a meal, the body feels full
and relaxed, making the body feel like it is
resting, resulting in a feeling of sleepiness,
particularly if you didn’t get a good night’s
sleep the night before. To avoid this, improve
your sleeping habits to prevent stress.
Engaging in regular physical exercise can help
you get a good night’s sleep. It is
recommended that you avoid napping if you
are having trouble sleeping at night.

of sleepiness after eating

meat, eggs, fish, tofu, cheese and
soybeans can generate more drowsiness
B. overeating protein and carbohydrate-
rich foods obstructs your brain’s ability
to function well

Question number 7 to 11 are based on the
following text.
Scientists have discovered the bones of what
may be the largest meat-eating dinosaur ever
to walk the earth. The discovery was made by a
team of researchers from Argentina and South
America in Patagonia, a dessert on the eastern
slopes of the Andes in South America. Besides
the interesting fact that the dinosaur was huge
and horrifying, it is even more astounding that
the bones of a number of the dinosaurs were
found together. This discovery challenges the
prior theory that the biggest meat-eaters lives
as loners and instead indicates that they may
have lived and hunted in packs. The
Tyrannosaurus Rex, lived in North America and
was believed to hunt and live alone.
The newly discovered meat-eater appears to be
related to the Giganotosaurus family, being as
closely related to it as a fox would be a dog. It
is actually not of the same family at all as the
Tyrannosaurus Rex, being as different from it as
a cat is from a dog.
The fossilized remains indicate that the animals
live about 100 million years ago. With needle-
shaped nose and razor sharp teeth, they were
larger that the Tyrannosaurus Rex, although
their legs were slightly shorter, and their jaws
were designed to be better able to cut body of
their prey into pieces quickly and precisely.
