Read the following passage and choose the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the following questions.
We live in a world of tired, sleep deprived people. In his book Counting Sheep, Paul Martin – a
behavioural biologist – describes a society which is just too busy to sleep and which does not give
sleeping the importance it deserves.
Modern society has invented reasons not to sleep. We are now a 24/7 society where shops and
services must be available all hours. We spend longer hours at work than we used to, and more time
getting to work. Mobile phones and email allow us to stay in touch round the clock and late-night TV
and the Internet tempt us away from our beds. When we need more time for work or pleasure, the easy
solution is to sleep less. The average adult sleeps only 6.2 hours a night during the week, whereas
research shows that most people need eight or even eight and a half hours’ sleep to feel at their best.
Nowadays, many people have got used to sleeping less than they need and they live in an almost
permanent state of “sleep debt”.

Trang 10
 Until the invention of the electric light in 1879 our daily cycle of sleep used to depend on the hours
of daylight. People would get up with the sun and go to bed at nightfall. But nowadays our hours of sleep
are mainly determined by our working hours (or our social life) and most people are woken up
arti>icially by an alarm clock. During the day caffeine, the world’s most popular drug, helps to keep us
awake. 75% of the world’s population habitually consume caffeine, which up to a point masks the
symptoms of sleep deprivation.
What does a chronic lack of sleep do to us? As well as making us irritable and unhappy as humans, it
also reduces our motivation and ability to work. This has serious implications for society in general.
Doctors, for example, are often chronically sleep deprived, especially when they are on “night call” and
may get less than three hours’ sleep. Lack of sleep can seriously impair their mood, judgment, and ability
to take decisions. Tired engineers, in the early hours of the morning, made a series of mistakes with
catastrophic results. On our roads and motorways lack of sleep kills thousands of people every year.
Tests show that a tired driver can be just as dangerous as a drunken driver. However, driving when
drunk is against the law but driving when exhausted isn’t. As Paul Martin says, it is very ironic that we
admire people who function on very little sleep instead of criticizing them for being irresponsible. Our
world would be a much safer, happier place if everyone, whatever their job, slept eight hours a night.
Question 1: Which of the following could best serve as the title of the passage?
A. Accident Prevention: Urgent! B. Sleep Deprivation: Causes and Effects
C. A Society of Sleepless People D. A 24/7 Society and “Sleep Debt”

A. Our social life has no in>luence on our hours of sleep.
B. The sun obviously determined our daily routines.
C. The electric light was invented in the 19th century.
