With summer in full swing and daily schedules changing, teenagers may be rolling
out of bed closer to lunchtime than breakfast. And while the occasional late night is fun,
research suggests that poor sleep habits are linked to a host of health problems such as
obesity, depression, anxiety, and learning disorders. A recent study from BYU found that the
activities teens do before bed significantly impact the quantity of their sleep.
The study, recently published in the Journal of Research on Adolescence, found that
certain activities — spending time with friends, hanging out in public places, and low-effort
entertainment such as viewing social media, snacking, or watching TV — reduce teens’ sleep
duration when done late in the evening. If the activities teenagers are doing in the evening
shift bedtimes later, they get less sleep, and that can be harmful for them. Conversely,
activities that require mental or physical effort earlier in the evening, such as homework,
interacting with parents, or participating in sports, are associated with earlier sleep times and
potentially longer sleep duration.
While some teens may attempt to compensate for weekday sleep deficits by sleeping
in on weekends, the study highlights that this strategy isn't effective in fully replenishing lost
sleep.“There is no replacement for missed weekday sleep,” said BYU professor of
developmental psychology Blake Jones, who co-authored the study. “You cannot effectively
catch up on insufficient weekday sleep by just sleeping in on the weekend.”

A. spend time with friends late in the evening.

Question 34. Why is it important to establish regular evening routines to help teenagers
maintain adequate sleep patterns?
A. They can spend more time playing video games.
B. They can sleep late in the evening more frequently.
C. They will be able to get rid of poor health conditions.
D. They can sleep in on weekends to refill lost sleep.

A. The Impact of Evening Activities on Adolescent.
B. Sleeping Habit of Teenagers.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
 Violent online content is now “unavoidable” for children in the UK, with many first
exposed to it when they are still in primary school, research from the media watchdog has
found. Every single British child interviewed for the Ofcom study had watched violent
material on the internet, ranging from videos of local school and street fights shared in group
chats, to explicit and extreme graphic violence, including gang-related content. Children were
aware that even more extreme material was available in the deeper recesses of the web, but
had not sought it out themselves, the report concluded.
The findings prompted the NSPCC to accuse tech platforms of sitting back and
“ignoring their duty of care to young users”. Rani Govender, a senior policy officer for child
safety online, said: “It is deeply concerning that children are telling us that being
unintentionally exposed to violent content has become a normal part of their online lives”
“It is unacceptable that algorithms are continuing to push out harmful content that we
know can have devastating mental and emotional consequences for young people.”
