Peple may set an alarm n the phne r clck that sunds like this: beep beep beep. That hard, unpleasant sund may be making it harder t shake ff the sleepy feeling in the mrning knwn as grgginess. S, is there a better way t wake up? A recent study says yes. The answer is music.
The study, carried utby researchers in Australia, invlved50peple. The researchers fund that peple wh wake up t musical alarms reprted feeling mre awake and alert. Stuart McFarlane, a lead writer f the study stated, “We are very surprised by these findings as ne might expect a harsh beeping sund t be mre successful at waking up a persn.”
Sleep inertia（睡眠惯性）is anther term fr grgginess. It means a persn has a heavy feeling when waking up, and has truble getting mving again after sleeping. McFarlane said peple need t better understand sleep inertia’s harmful effects n human perfrmance later in the day.
“Nt everyne will experience the full effect. But fr thse wh need t perfrm well during this time, care shuld be taken when perfrming their duties,” he said. “This includes dangerus tasks like driving r riding ur bikes shrtly after waking up. The same is true fr peple wh wrk in dangerus situatins shrtly after they wake, including firefighters and pilts.”
S, what makes musical alarms better fr waking up? The researchers think the music may be mre successful in reducing sleep inertia because it has several tnes, cmpared t the single tne f a “beeping” alarm. McFarlane said that the changes ver time between the music tnes may help increase a persn’s attentin when waking frm sleep.
And is there a kind f music that is best t wake up t? There maybe, McFarlane said. “We culd suggest alarm sunds that are tune full and easy t sing alng with. The current sunds I have been using include ‘Clse t me’ by the Cure and ‘Brderline’ by Madnna.”
N matter hw yu wake up, experts say, the amunt f sleep yu get als matters a lt.

A team f researchers at ETH Zurich has the perfect lng-lasting slutin t ur fg prblem. They have develped a very thin and gld-based transparent cating（涂层）that can cnvert sunlight int heat, which can be applied t glass and ther surfaces t prevent them frm fgging.
The special cating is develped using titanium xide and gld particles. It selectively absrbs infrared radiatins（红外线辐射）frm the sunlight and creates a heating effect that is pwerful enugh t keep fg away frm the surface f an bject. The cating basically emplys heat t stp fgging. The cating absrbs a large part f the infrared radiatin, which causes it t heat up-by up t 8℃.
Previusly, prducts like anti-fgging sprays（喷雾）create a very thin film f water n the surface t remve fg. The prblem with such surfaces is pllutin. Alng with water, the sprays als attract dirt, dust, il, and varius ther dirty substances, and just a little dirt n the surface makes it useless. Hwever, the new cating repels（排斥）water. Furthermre, the cating is significantly thinner, which makes it mre transparent as well as flexible. It is heated passively and requires, during daytime, n additinal energy surce.
Gld might be expensive, but the researchers stress that their cating requires s little that the material csts remain lw. Their cating is prduced with standardized and readily scalable methds, all cst-effectively. Hwever, althugh this prduct can wrk at very lw levels f slar radiatin, it des rely n a certain amunt f light.
The researchers will develp the cating further fr ther applicatins. In the prcess, they will examine whether ther metals wrk just as well as gld. There is n need t fear. Hwever, this wuld cause a car r a building t heat up mre in the summer. The researchers have already filed a patent. Hpefully, this grundbreaking prduct will sn be available n the market.
32. Hw des the new cating wrk t remve fg?
A. By reflecting part f sunlight selectively.
B. By keeping cl air away frm the bject.
C. By creating a thin film f water n the surface.
D. By absrbing infrared radiatins t heat the cating.
33. Why des the authr mentin previus anti-fgging prducts?
A. T stress the advantages f the new cating.
B. T intrduce the inspiratin behind the new cating.
C. T prve the difficulty f creating anti-fgging prducts.
D. T explain the reasn fr the anti-fgging cating being ppular.
34. What is the limitatin f the new cating?
A. It is cnsiderably expensive.B. It depends n sunlight t wrk.
C. It takes t much time t prduce. D. It is difficult t clean and maintain.
35. What d the researchers plan t d next?
A. Apply fr a patent fr the inventin.
B. Develp the prduct fr mre practical uses.
C. Explre the envirnmental impact f the cating.
D. Seek a mre envirnmentally friendly material t replace gld.
