1.B 2.A 3.C 【解析】 【原文】 W: “Sleep is of the dead.” “Sleep is a criminal waste of time.” That’s not me talking. That’s two famous people, Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Edison. But tonight, we have an equally well-known person, who disagrees with such ideas. He is Russell Foster. He is one of this country’s leading scientists in sleep studies and the freethinking lecturer of the year. Russell is a man who thinks deeply and sleeps deeply, and he wants us to stop seeing sleep as an inconvenience, something to be gotten through; a man who wants us to take sleep as the most important behavioral experience that we have. Russell has been doing this research for decades at the University of Virginia, Chicago and now at Oxford. But his work also takes him beyond the lab. Through videos and popular books, Russell has become a public speaker for sleep. And tonight’s lecture is about his research. Please welcome Russell Foster.
