The 'Acronym', our student newspaper, reports that the average student goes to sleep at 1:30 am.   1   that's an exaggeration (夸张), it's too close to the truth. Scientists say teens should sleep nine hours each night. But that's   2   to do.
Some even "pull all-nighters". These are lazy students who have homework due (到期) the next day that they haven't done. In the morning they don't look   3   and you can tell who's been doing it.
Maybe our lack of sleep is   4   laziness - I think I'm a fairly lazy student - or maybe it's because we have too much to do in American high schools.
I   5   go to bed around midnight. If I stayed up past 1:30 am, I wouldn't get any work done. I'd be   6   at my computer. My classes begin at 7:30. I'm   7   awake in my first class. By the second, I'm slightly drowsy. By my third class, I'm sleepy. By midday I'm finally   8   awake. But by 3:00 pm, I'm slowing down again. Yet I get more sleep than the Acronym's "average student".
