『答案』8.D9.C10.B11.C

『分析』这是一篇说明文。

文章介绍了发表在《当代生物学》杂志上的一项研究表明，周末睡懒觉的习惯并不能弥补工作日睡眠不足造成的损害。

更糟糕的是，它可能会损害你的健康。

『详解』8.细节理解题。

根据第三段中“Thefirstgroupwereaskedtosleepninehoursanightandthesecondgroupfivehoursanight.Themembersofthethirdgroupsleptforfivehoursonweekdaysbutrestedaslongastheywantedontheweekend.”可知，第一组每晚睡9个小时，第二组每晚睡5个小时。

第三组的成员在工作日睡5个小时，但是在周末想睡多久就睡多久。

所以参与的三组人员的睡眠要求不一样。

选项D与文意相符。

故选D。

9.词句猜测题。

根据下文中“changestocertainbodyhormones,especiallyhungerhormones.”可知，某些身体荷尔蒙的变化，尤其是饥饿荷尔蒙。

结合and，可以推测，此处与下文在意义上为并列关系，画线词应与changes意思相近，所以此处指生物钟的改变。

选项C符合题意。

故选C。

10.细节理解题。

根据倒数第三段最后一句“Sleepshortagecausesleptintodropandghrelintorise,soyou’rehungryandeatmore.”可知，睡眠不足导致瘦素
