     [1]It seems parents have long been right. Going to bed early is key to getting enough sleep and helping
adolescents feel on top of the world, a new study reported.
     [2]A lack of sleep among youngsters may trigger depression and suicidal thoughts, according to the
study by the Columbia University Medical Center.
     [3]"Our results are consistent with the theory that inadequate sleep is a risk factor for depression, working
with other risk and protective factors through multiple possible causal ways to the development of this mood
disorder," said lead author James Gangwisch.
     [4]"Adequate quality sleep could therefore be a preventative measure against depression and a treatment
for depression," he added in the study published in the Friday issue of Sleep magazine.
     [5]The study followed the nightly habits of some 15,659 college and high-school students, and found those
who consistently turned in after midnight had a 24 percent higher risk of depression than those who _______ 
before 10:00 pm. Night owls also ran a 20 percent higher risk of battling suicidal thoughts, the study added.
     [6]The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends that adolescents should sleep at least nine hours
or more a night. Those who were tucked in before 10:00 pm reported they slept on average about eight hours
and 10 minutes. But that amount of sleep dropped significantly for those in bed after midnight.
     [7]And adolescents who slept five hours or less a night were 71 percent more likely to suffer depression
and 48 percent more at risk of becoming suicidal, the study said.
     [8]"It is a common perception and societal expectation that adolescents do not need as much sleep as pre-
adolescents. Yet studies suggest that adolescents may actually require more sleep." said Gangwisch.
     [9]"Studies have found that adolescents do not go to bed early enough to make up for earlier school start
time
. And transitions to earlier school start times have been shown to be associated with significant sleep
deprivation."

请阅读下面某高三学生写给编辑的一封短信,然后根据要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Dear editor.

  I used to imagine the beautiful school life without any pressure, in the beautiful camps like heaven; we experienced lots of new things and enjoyed our youth.At that time I was really happy, even though what we did every day was just sinking ourselves in the boring books.

  But, I knew I was totally wrong after I came to senior three.We were overloaded with various assignments; we had to memorize a lot of difficult English words so as to achieve higher scores on the exams.In addition, for the sake of our future, we had to take the coursed not only in our own major but also in some related fields.We felt that once we slowed down, we might fall into a low position in class.Too much pressure has injured our mental and physical health as we suffer from nervousness, tiredness, sleeplessness and depression.Many of us have tried very hard at school but they failed in certain examinations and have disappointed their parents.Such students feel that they are less important than everyone else they meet and leave school before they have finished their study.I am just very upset with the present situation and I don’t know what I should do.

Yours sincerely
