What if I told you that scientists recently discovered that our brains may be just as busy at night as they are during the day? 37 Researchers at the University of Rochester found that the brain may be busy cleaning house -- cleaning out harmful waste materials. As with many studies, the researchers turned to mice for help. They studied mice that had colored dye injected into their brains. They observed the mice brains as they slept and when they were awake. The researchers say they saw that the brains of sleeping mice were hard at work. Dr. Maiken Nedergaard led the study. 38 It seems they have daytime jobs. Later they “moonlight” at a nighttime job. “Moonlighting” is working a nighttime job in addition to a day job. And this study says that is what our brains seem to be doing – working an extra job at night without additional pay for overtime. Whereas during sleep, they work very, very hard at removing all the waste that builds up when we are awake. “When we are awake, the brain cells are working very hard at processing all the information about our surroundings. The researchers say that the waste material includes poisons, or toxins, responsible for brain disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. It is not just beauty sleep. The brain needs us to sleep so it can get to work. 39 This shrinking permits waste to be removed more effectively. Dr. Nedergaard says these toxins end up in the liver. There, they are broken down and then removed from the body. “So our study suggests that we need to sleep because we have a macroscopic cleaning system that removes many of the toxic waste products from the brain.” The brain’s cleaning system could only be studied with new imaging technologies. The test animal must be alive in order that this brain process may be seen as it happens. Dr. Nedergaard says the next step is to look for the process in human brains. 40 The research may also one day lead to treatments to prevent or help fight neurological disorders.

- A They also found that during sleep, the brain’s cells shrink, or become smaller.
- B While we sleep, our brains are doing much more than getting ready for the next day.
- C She said the results demonstrate just how important sleep is to health and fighting disease.
- D The brain expert says our brains perform two very different jobs.
思路引導 VIP
請觀察第 38 題空格後面的內容:文中提到了『日間工作』(daytime jobs) 以及用『兼差』(moonlighting) 來形容夜晚的工作。若要在這兩句話之前加上一個引導句,你認為這句話應該具備什麼樣的功能,才能讓讀者預期到接下來會討論『兩種不同性質』的活動呢?

⚔️ 嗯?你居然沒走錯路,還找到了正確答案!
哼,看來你這次沒有迷失方向,答對了這題,不錯。這證明你掌握了文章的承接邏輯跟那些彎彎繞繞的轉折銜接。來,讓我用三刀流給你剖析一下:
- 承上啟下…什麼來著?:前面那個人叫什麼 Dr. Nedergaard,後面就突然冒出「日間工作」(daytime jobs) 和「兼差」(moonlighting) 的比喻。這地方就該是個總結性觀念,把前面後面的東西都綁在一起,不是嗎?就好像要把幾把刀綁成一把一樣。
