“The Secret Truth about Napping” By Maria Allegra Lexile Level: 980 | Word Count: 1085 Napping: Only for Kids?

In general, Americans regard napping as an unproductive habit. They think that only little children should take naps. However, there is evidence that napping can benefit people of all ages.

Famous Nappers

Many famous historical figures have been nappers. American presidents John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, and Bill Clinton all took frequent naps to help them deal with the pressures of leading a powerful nation. Napoleon Bonaparte, a French emperor, often gave rousing speeches at a moment's notice. Perhaps this was due to his habit of taking frequent naps. Winston Churchill, who helped lead the Allied Powers to victory during World War II, slept for at least an hour every afternoon. He stated that a nap could renew a person's energy.

Other famous historical nappers include the brilliant scientist Albert Einstein and the world-changing inventor Thomas Edison. The amazing artist Leonardo Da Vinci also took naps. They all had unusual sleep patterns that allowed them to work in a focused and creative way. Maybe if Edison had skipped his naps, he would never have invented the light bulb. Maybe Leonardo would have been too sleepy to paint the Mona Lisa.

Naps for Certain Careers

Scientific studies show the benefits that naps can provide for individuals with unusual work schedules. Examples include astronauts and certain medical personnel. The human body operates according to an internal clock. This clock operates in relation to the Earth's pattern of darkness at night and bright light during the day. When a person's internal clock is in sync with her or his habits, the person can most likely sleep well at night and remain awake and alert all day. But if the person's job makes for interrupted sleep—or sleep at odd hours—the internal clock can become confused. Then the person has trouble getting enough sleep.

Astronauts traveling in space are not exposed to regular patterns of light and darkness. As a result, astronauts average two hours less sleep than usual during every night they spend in space. They often have trouble concentrating. They also become grumpy. NASA decided to study whether astronauts should take naps. They did research with volunteers. The researchers found that napping improved memory, but not alertness. NASA researchers also concluded that longer naps worked better than shorter ones. Mark Rosekind of NASA, who conducted the research, stated that even a 26-minute nap boosted a pilot's mental performance by 34%. A 45-minute nap gave roughly the same mental boost but the boost lasted more than 6 hours.

Doctors in training, known as residents, work very long hours. As a result, they are often sleep-deprived. Emergency-room doctors working at night also have problems sleeping. Sleep experts recommend that these health workers take short naps on the job. A team of researchers led by David F. Dinges, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, found that letting subjects nap for as little as 24 minutes improved their mental performance. So even short naps can reduce the number of mistakes a tired person makes.

The main takeaway seems to be that a deep sleep, whether it is nighttime sleep or a daytime nap, primes the brain to function at a higher level, allowing us to come up with better ideas, find solutions to puzzles more quickly, identify patterns faster, and recall information more accurately.

Siesta Tradition

There is a word in the Spanish language to describe the habit of taking a nap in the mid-afternoon: siesta. However, taking a midday nap is common not only in Spain, but it is also common in Greece, where people traditionally take a break in the middle of the day. They eat a large meal and then take a nap.

It is not the big noontime meal that makes Greeks sleepy. Evidence suggests that people, in general, become drowsy between 2:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. In fast-paced America, workers and students usually fight to stay awake during this so-called "nap zone."

After a nap, people tend to be happier and more alert. They do better work and avoid mistakes. Nappers may even have better long-term health than non-

nappers. In 2007, a study by the Harvard School of Public Health discovered that people who took 30 minute naps at least three times a week were 37% less likely to die of heart disease. Furthermore, the study found that even people who napped for less than 30 minutes or napped only one or two times per week were 12% less likely to die from heart disease. In a 2011 study, researchers at Allegheny College found that napping was a factor in lowering blood pressure after mental stress. The people in the study who took a daily 45 minute nap on average had lower blood pressure after taking a mental stress test than those who didn't have a nap.

Finding Time to Sleep

But finding time to sleep—or to nap—can be challenging. Students involved in sports or other extracurricular activities after school aren't often able to find time to nap before evening sleep time. And finding places to nap during the day at school is challenging. However, Anton Anderson, an English teacher at Greenwich (Connecticut) High School, decided to do something to help the waves of weary teens he was seeing every day. In 1998,he founded the Power Napping Club, which allows students to nap for about 20 minutes at the end of the day before going on to extracurricular activities. Its motto: Veni, Vidi, Dormici (Latin for “I came, I saw, I slept”).

The Power Napping Club co-president emphasizes the boost that naps provide. "Obviously, it's no substitute for sleep, but I definitely feel more relaxed afterward," she says.

“The Alligator’s Super Sense” By Ana Marie Rodriguez Lexile Level: 960 | Word Count: 756

1 Dr. Daphne Soares was sitting on the back of an alligator tied up in the bed of a pickup truck.

2 The gator had moved into an area where a lot of people live. Dr. Soares and her coworkers had caught the gator and were taking it away. Why would she sit on an alligator? “I had no other place to sit!” she said.

3 Dr. Soares is a scientist. Naturally curious, she spent the ride looking at the reptile beneath her. She noticed many small black bumps on the animal’s face, especially along the jaws. “What are those little spots for?” she wondered.

4 She asked other researchers about the black bumps. No one knew what they were.

5 Dr. Soares began to study them herself. Through her experiments, she learned what the bumps do, and much more. In fact, she discovered one of the alligator’s secrets of survival.

The Alligator Hunts

6 The alligator is a master hunter. It lies just under the water with its eyes, nose, and mouth at the surface. When a bird, mammal, or fish passes by, the reptile turns and snaps its huge jaws. It has taken another meal.

7 Dr. Soares thought the black bumps might help the alligator sense its prey...but how?

8 To find out, she collected about 30 alligator eggs and took them to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts. After the eggs hatched, she set up experiments to find out what type of sensors the black bumps were. Did they respond to light or electrical currents or even stinky things?

9 Dr. Soares knew how to find the answer. Humans and other animals have many kinds of sensors, such as the ones in the tongue for tasting, in the eye for seeing, and in the skin for feeling. When a sensor is activated, nerves carry electrical signals from the sensor to the brain. For instance, when you put a piece of

chocolate into your mouth, sensors in your tongue (taste buds) send signals to the brain. Then you know how sweet the chocolate is.

10 Dr. Soares wanted to watch the electrical activity of the sensors’ nerves to see what triggered a signal.

11 She prepared the baby alligators one by one. First, she gave an alligator a drug to make it sleep. Second, she connected tiny electrodes to the sensor nerves. Third, she connected the electrodes to a computer that would show any nerve activity. Then she placed the sleeping gator into a water tank. She was ready to start the experiment.

No Response!

12 Dr. Soares shone a light on the little black bumps. The computer showed no nerve activity. Next, she exposed the bumps to small electrical currents and then to smelly odors. None of these things activated the nerves.

13 The bumps did not sense light or electricity or odors. What could they detect?

14 Dr. Soares found the answer by chance. She accidentally created ripples in the water. At this moment, the computer buzzed, showing signals from the nerves. The sensors had detected the ripples!

15 At first, Dr. Soares didn’t believe what she had discovered. But after many experiments, she was convinced that the bumps were pressure sensors that detected small changes in pressure as ripples hit them.

Chomping in the Dark

16 Dr. Soares wanted to know how well the alligator could use its pressure sensors. To find out, she blocked the reptile’s other senses. She used petroleum jelly to block the ears, and she turned off the lights. (She used special equipment that let her watch the alligator in the dark.)

17 Finally, she dropped a single drop of water in the tank. The reptile snapped at the water drop!

18 Since those experiments, Dr. Soares has also found pressure sensors in crocodiles, which are relatives of the alligator. She also looked for clues to the sensors in fossils of extinct crocodiles. In fossilized jaw bones, she found little

holes where nerves once carried signals from pressure sensors to the brain. The holes are just like the ones in modern alligator jaws.

19 The modern alligator’s little black bumps were once a mystery. Now we know that they tell the alligator and its relatives just where and when to chomp. And those little pressure sensors have played that role for a long, long time.

1. In “The Alligator’s Super Sense,” Dr. Soares is described as “naturally curious.” Which paragraph provides evidence to support this claim?

a. Paragraph 2

b. Paragraph 6

c. Paragraph 11

d. Paragraph 16

2. In the section titled, “Chomping in the Dark,” the author explains how Dr. Soares discovered that alligators can chomp at their prey even if they can’t see it. Which set of paragraphs in that section support this claim?

a. Paragraphs 16 and 17

b. Paragraphs 18 and 19

c. Paragraphs 16 and 18

d. Paragraphs 17 and 1

3. In paragraph 6 of “The Alligator’s Super Sense” the author states, “The alligator is a master hunter” and then supports this claim by describing how an alligator waits just under the water to snap at its prey. How else does the author support this claim? Write your answer in 2-3 sentences, and use evidence from the article in your response.

4. Part 1 Which section from the article “The Alligator’s Super Sense” provides the most relevant evidence to support the claim that the pressure sensors on an alligator are very sensitive?

a. The Introduction (paragraphs 1-5)

b. The Alligator Hunts (paragraphs 6-11)

c. No Response! (paragraphs 12-15)

d. Chomping in the Dark (paragraphs 16-19)

Part 2 Which specific paragraph from the section you identified in Part 1 provides the best evidence in support of the claim? Write the paragraph number on the line below.

______________________________________________________________

5. In “The Alligator’s Super Sense,” the author claims that the black bumps found on an alligator’s jaw are its secret to survival. Does the author provide sufficient support of this claim? Why or why not? Explain your response in a paragraph, using evidence from the text to support your answer.

***Bonus Question: In “The Alligator’s Super Sense,” you learn about the experiments Dr. Soares conducted to discover the purpose of the black bumps on an alligator’s jaw. Other animals have unique features, too. For example, butterflies use their feet to taste potential food sources. Design an experiment, similar to the experiments Dr. Soares conducted, that would show that butterflies taste with their feet, not with their mouths.

The Ride of the Future?

Before Reading Poll

Only in the last 50 years have engineers known enough science to build complex transportation systems.

Agree Disagree

Explain why you voted the way you did.

The Ride of the Future? PART 1 LOS ANGELES, California. Planning a long trip? Imagine if you could reach your destination by

zipping through giant tubes at close to the speed of sound. Such a voyage might sound like it was ripped

from a science fiction novel—but in the mind of one man, it's the way of the future. In 2013, inventor

Elon Musk unveiled a sketch of the "Hyperloop," a futuristic transportation system that would use car-

sized capsules to catapult passengers through large tubes at lightning-fast speeds. Musk envisions the

Hyperloop connecting major metropolitan areas in California. Some experts, however, doubt that the

complex system could ever become a reality.

According to Musk, the Hyperloop concept could revolutionize travel in the U.S. Here's how his system

would work:

Hyperloop passengers would recline inside sleek aluminum capsules. Each capsule would float on a

cushion of air inside the tube—similar to the way a puck moves along an air hockey table. A compressor

would move air from the front of the capsule to the rear to minimize friction, while motors that rely in

part on solar power would propel the capsule forward. The proposed route would run above ground

following Interstate 5, which links major cities in northern and southern California.

Musk says that traveling on the Hyperloop would be much smoother—and faster—than most

conventional modes of transportation. The air cushion created below each capsule would make for a

frictionless and turbulence-free ride. Because the capsules would move inside tubes, they wouldn't

experience wind resistance, which slows down objects in motion. Musk claims the Hyperloop capsules

would be able to reach speeds of more than 700 miles per hour (more than 1,100 kilometers per hour).

That's fast enough to make the nearly 400-mile (640-kilometer) trek from Los Angeles to San Francisco

in 30 minutes, roughly half the time it takes an airplane.

"The only option for super-fast travel is to build a tube over or under the ground that contains a special

environment," Musk wrote in an online statement.

For now, the Hyperloop is still being conceptualized. Musk believes it could take 10 years before the

system could be fully operational. He's estimated the price tag at around $6 billion—about one-tenth

the projected cost of a high-speed railroad system that California is currently planning to build. Musk

has said the Hyperloop would be more reliable and safer than other methods of travel. He says the self-

contained structure could never crash and would be immune to bad weather.

Despite the potential benefits, Musk's proposal didn't take long to attract skepticism from leaders in the

transportation industry. For some, the $6 billion projected price tag was way too low. Some suggested

that the timeframe of a decade to completion was naïve. In order to begin construction, Musk would

need to obtain political support, environmental clearances, and the land to build the tubes on, all of

which would be hugely time-consuming endeavors.

Dan Richard, chair of the California High-Speed Rail Authority, suggested that Musk was underestimating

the challenges involved when constructing a mass transit system in the state.

"If and when Mr. Musk pursues his Hyperloop technology, we'll be happy to share our experience about

what it really takes to build a project in California, across seismic zones, minimizing impacts on farms,

businesses, and communities and protecting sensitive environmental areas and species," Richard said.

James E. Moore II is director of the transportation engineering program at the University of Southern

California. He called Musk's idea novel, but not a breakthrough. Moore said that the undertaking would

require Musk to overcome considerable barriers such as cost and building through mountain ranges

along the proposed route.

"I don't think it will provide the alternative that [Musk is] looking for," Moore said.

Despite the naysayers, Musk is optimistic that the Hyperloop project will move forward. He says he's too

busy with other projects to lead construction on a working model, but he has given permission for other

scientists and engineers to tinker with his design. He's hoping that another innovator will find a way to

bring the Hyperloop to life.

The Associated Press contributed to this story. PART 2 Dig Deeper Think about these amazing

engineering feats. In 100 CE, a 75-meter (246-foot) stepped pyramid was built. In 1863, a 400-kilometer

(250-mile) railway was constructed below London. In 2008, over 210 million cubic meters (about 275

million cubic yards) of sand and rock from 16 quarries were moved to build a series of artificial islands in

the shape of a palm tree in Dubai. That was enough material to build a wall that would encircle Earth

three times! These structures would not have been built if the engineers of the day hadn't been able to

communicate the solutions they envisioned.

When engineers identify a solution to a design problem, they engage in argument based on evidence to

communicate their ideas and gain the support of their peers and the populace of their community.

Engineers use argument to propose, support, and defend their positions, conclusions, or designs to their

peers. When scientists or engineers don't agree, they challenge ideas, asking questions in order to

better understand them. They might present evidence to argue, or dispute, the ideas. Explanations and

argumentations are related practices. They complement each other because the process of developing,

evaluating, and revising explanations occurs through the practice of argumentation.

Elon Musk and his supporters know that the Hyperloop won't be accepted by skeptics if they simply

express opinions. They understand that claims made in their explanations or solutions must be

supported by reliable evidence and reasoning. They might create their argument using the same three

basic components that scientists and engineers have always used:

-Claim—A statement that answers a scientific question or identifies a solution to a design problem. A

claim answers the question, "What is the best explanation or solution?"

- Evidence—Data, observations, and information that support the claim. Evidence answers the question,

"How do I know my claim is true?"

-Reasoning—A justification that tells how the evidence supports the claim (using major science

concepts, laws, or theories or test data). Reasoning answers the question, "Why do I think this?"

Supporters of the Hyperloop might create an argument from evidence. If so, it should:

- Make a claim that is supported by strong evidence.

-Identify patterns or other relationships among variables to help justify the claims and evidence.

-Explain why the constraints and criteria in support of the claim are justified.

-Organize the evidence into meaningful points and explain it in a way that others can understand how

the evidence supports and advances the claim.

- Explain how the evidence supports what is already known about the phenomenon. Defend the findings

by giving details of what the data say or imply.

Skeptics of the Hyperloop might critique Musk's argument from evidence. If so, they might:

-Identify which parts of the evidence support or refute the argument.

-Ask questions about the data, claim, and conclusions of others.

-Recognize any weaknesses or limitations in the data, claim, or conclusions. They might offer a different

interpretation or disagree with the person making the argument.

-Weigh the strength of evidence that supports the claim.

-Determine whether that claim and evidence relate to the initial science question or design problem. –

-Look for supporting data, logical reasoning, and strong evidence that give credibility to or refutes the

argument.
