College Night Owls(晚睡的人)Have Lower Grades

College students who are morning people tend to get better grades than those who are night owls,
according to University of North Texas researchers.
They had 824 undergraduate(大学本科生的)students complete a health survey that included questiom
about sleep habits and daytime functioning,and found that students who are morning people had higher grade
point averages(GPAs)than those who are night people.
"The finding that college students who are evening types have lower GPAs is a very important finding,
sure to make its way into undergraduate psychology texts in the near future,along with the research showing
that memory is improved by sleep,"study co-author Daniel J.Taylor said in a prepared statement.
"Further,these results suggest that it might be possible to improve academic performance by using
chronotherapy(时间疗法)to help students retrieve their biological clock to become morning types, "Taylor
said.
The research was expected to be presented Monday at SLEEP,the annual meeting of the Associated
Professional Sleep Societies,in Baltimore.
In other findings expected to be heard at the meeting,University of Colorado researchers found a
significant association between insomnia(失眠)and a decline in college students' academic performance.
The study included 64 psychology,nursing and medical students,average age 27.4 years,who were
divided into two groups一low GPAs and high GPAs.
Among those with low GPAs ,69. 7 percent had trouble falling asleep ,53.1 percent experienced leg kicks or
twitches(痉挛)at night,65.6 percent reported waking at night and having trouble falling back to sleep,and
72.7 percent had difficulty concentrating during the day.
"In college students,the complaint of difficulty concentrating during the day continues to have a considerable
impact on their ability to succeed in the classroom,"study author Dr James F.Pagel said in a prepared
statement."This study showed that disordered sleep has significant harmful effects on a student's academic
performance,including GPAs."

According to Dr Pagel,the academic performance of a student will be affected__________.
A:if he or she is not motivated
B:if he or she is troubled by disordered sleep
C:if he or she is a morning type
D:if he or she is a lazy person
