• 3．Not getting enough or the right kind .of sleep is bad for health.But according to researchers from the University of California，people who don't get enough sleep are less willing to socialize（社交） with others.They are simply too tired to go out.
     The researchers did a small study.They tested 18 young people who had just had a good night's sleep---as well as tested them again after a sleepless night.The participants watched videos of people walking towards them.When the person on the video got too"close"to them，they pushed a button（按鈕） to stop the video，which recorded how close they allowed the person to get.
     The results showed that the participants kept the person at a distance（距離） of 60% further back if they hadn't got enough sleep.They felt that their personal space was being invaded（侵犯）.But when the participants got a good night's sleep，they allowed the person to get much closer to them.
     According to lead researcher Matthew Walker，the less sleep you get，the less you want to socialize with others.In turn，other people may think you are strange and stay away from you.This can make you feel lonely and cause you to sleep even less.It becomes a vicious cycle（惡性循環(huán)）.
     So if you want to be a more sociable and popular person，sleeping well might help. "One night of good sleep makes you feel more outgoing and socially confident（自信的），"said Walker.
  
  （1）Researchers from the University of California believe that less sleep

  .
  A．makes school life busy and hard
  B．makes people less sociable
  C．isn't bad for old people
  D．causes people to become excited
  （2）The underlined word "participants" in the passage probably means

  B．研究者
  C．參與者
  D．旁觀者
  （3）What can be inferred（推斷） from Paragraph 3？

  
  A．The proper distance to keep from others is 60 cm.
  B．People don't like sharing their personal space.
  C．Don't get too close to sleepless people.
  D．People are smarter after having a good sleep.
  （4）Matthew Walker would agree that
