PASSAGE 2
Have you ever woken up just as you were about to fall
asleep? Did you wake up with a jerk, or the feeling of
falling? This is called hypnic jerks, hypnagogic jerks, or
sleep starts. Hypnic jerks are quite common, and the
condition isn’t serious. Hypnic jerks are strong,
involuntary contractions that usually happen just when
you’re drifting into sleep. This jolt in the body can startle
you awake when you’re in the period between being awake
and being asleep. Lots of people experience hypnic jerks
from time to time, and researchers think that around 70%
of people will experience hypnic jerks.
One theory is that the brain misunderstands what's going
on as our muscles relax before sleep. It's normal for the
muscles to relax, of course, but the brain gets confused.
For a minute, it thinks you're falling. In response, the
brain causes your muscles to tense as a way to «catch
yourself» before falling down — and that makes your body
jerk.
These body jerks can wake you up with a start — but
they're nothing to worry about. Lots of people fall right
back asleep afterward.

PASSAGE 3
Perceived obsolescence occurs when a customer is
convinced that they need an updated product, even if their
current product works well. It is often based on style
rather than functionality. Manufacturers constantly use
advertising to persuade potential customers that their
current product is obsolete and lacks style. The key to
successful perceived obsolescence is customer
perception.
For example, a simple cell phone, with keys and buttons,
may be perfect for most customers. However, with the
advent of touchscreen phones, phone manufacturers have
had to convince users that their old phones are outdated.
Another good example of perceived obsolescence is a
soccer jersey, for a fan. Professional soccer clubs subtly
change the design of their kits for the new season even
though the color scheme remains the same.
This puts pressure on many fans, as they do not want to be PRÁCTICA DOMICILIARIA

is that a fan in the old jersey is a les committed fan than
