What is sleep? Sleep is the body's natural 'pause button ',


During sleep, the muscles relax, Breathing gets slow,
The heartbeat gets slow, The brain works differently too,
Why do we sleep? Scientists aren't sure, But they are sure
that sleep is very important for the brain and the body,

The different stages 01 sleep - Human [35-vear-old]


Read the text, Write the stages of sleep in the correct place on the graph,
Humans sleep in cycles
of about 90-120 minutes,
There are two types of
sleep: non-REM (four
stages) and REM sleep,

Stage one
During this stage of sleep,
you are not really asleep .
The body slows, the
muscles relax. It is easy .
to wake up from this type
of sleep.

REM sleep
REM means 'rapid eye movement'. This is because the eyes
move very quickly.

The first rapid eye movement (REM) phase starts about 70 to


90 minutes after a person falls asleep. People have between
three and five REM phases a night. They are not awake but the
brain is awake and active. People dream during REM sleep but
the body cannot move. That stops peop le 'acting' their dreams.

Sleep Stage ----')

1.=="'-'

Stage two
After ten minutes of light
sleep, you start 'true
sleep' This lasts about
20 minutes. People
breathe more slowly, the
heart beats more slowly.
Most sleep in the night is
'true sleep'.

Stage three
Breathing and heartbeat
are very slow now.

Hour I

Stage four
Breathing is rhythmic.
There is some muscle
activity. It is difficult to
wake up from this sleep.

Answer the questions,


1
2
3
4

How many non -REM stages of sleep are there?


When is the heartbeat at its slowest?
How many sleep cyc les do people have each night?
What part of th e body moves when a perso n dreams?

You sleep about 8-10 hours.


Human babies sleep about
16 hours a day.
Old people sleep only 5-6
hours a night.
Some animals sleep during
the day. They are active
dUring the night.
Other animals (like the
hedgehog) 'hibernate' - they
sleep for 3-4 months during
the winter.

How animals sleep


~t5

Most animals sleep in cycles of non-REM and REM sleep. But not all animals
sleep the same number of hours. What is important for animals is how safe
they are when they are asleep, If an animal is in danger (for example, if other
animals hunt it to eat) then it will sleep fewer hours.

I
Ie

Read the texts below and match them to the correct photo. Write the correct letter
in each photo.

a leopard s often sleep in trees . There they are safe from lions.
b Bats sleep for nearl y 20 hours a day. Nearl y four hours is REM sleep.
c Giraffes sleep about 4.5 hours a day. They have about 30 minutes of REM sleep a night
d l ions sleep about 13.5 hours a day. They only get up to drink. They hunt duri ng the night
e Dolphins sleep for 10 hours a day. but on ly half of their bra in is asleep. About 15 minutes
is REM sleep

Mini-project
Keep a sleep diary for a week. Make a note of:

what time yo u go to bed


what time you wake up
if you dream

how many times you wake up during the night


if you sleep during the day (a siesta)
how many hour s you sleep a day in total

After a week, compare your sleep diaries in class.

In London today, Bhangra is very popular.


Bhangra is a new trend in dance music but
it is originally a folk dance from Punjab in
India. Modern Bhangra is a mixture of hip
hop, reggae, house, and drumandbass. My
favourite artists are Missy Elliot, Jay Sean
and Panjabi MG.

Turkish pop music is big in the Turkish


commu nity here. It has got a different sound
from other European pop music. It's a mixture
of Eastern and Western music. My favourite pop
singer is Tarkan. He's very goodlooking ' Rafet

are good singers too.

pay fo r something. But in the past, money was also something used in traditional and
re ligious ceremonies, such as wedd ings. We often think of money as coi ns or notes (cas h)
but in the past peop le used many different things as 'money'.
Many people in t he world today keep t heir money in banks. What most people don't know

The sculpture was an old jacket over a computer

Over many years, a lot of


ships and planes that went
into the Bermuda Triangle
did not come out again
- they just disappeared.
A famous incident was
'Flight 19' in 1945.
On 5th December, at
1.30 pm, five American
Navy planes - 'Avengers'
- left Florida and flew
into the triangle. The
pilots were experienced
students. The weather was
good. At about 3 pm, one
of the pilots talked to the
control tower: 'We're lost.
Everything looks wrong.'

For

l'llJ W".~

At 5 pm, the weather


started to get bad. The
pilots were still lost and
they asked for help. At
7 pm in the evening. the
can trol tower heard the
pilots of the planes for the
last time. No one ever saw
the pilots or the planes
again. The US Navy sent
planes and ships to look
for them , but they did not
find anything to explain
what happened to the
planes.
