Question

We all wish we could have just one more hour of sleep.

For lucky high school students in England, they’re now going to reset their alarm(鬧鐘) and get one more hour of sleep. Instead of starting school at 9 a.m., students will begin their school day at 10 a.m.

This is part of a huge study by Oxford University. The experiment( 實驗) will see if later classes can help them get good marks.

“We know that something funny happens when you’re a teenager, "a sleep researcher Colin Epsie told The Telegraph. “When you get bad marks, your parents think it is because you're lazy, and everything would be OK if you could get to sleep earlier. Science is telling us that teenagers need to sleep more in the mornings.”

In 2009, some scientists did other similar experiments. They found that 19% students got better marks in Maths and Science.

Is one more hour's sleep good for all students' studies? Yet we’ll have to wait until 2018 to find out these exciting results!
