Passage One
Reducing the amount of sleep students get at night has a direct impact on their performance at school during the day. ____1____ This has been shown by Brown Medical School and Bradley Hospital research. In the study, teachers were not told the amount of sleep students received when completing weekly performance reports. Yet they rated the students who had received eight hours or less as having the most trouble recalling old material, learning new lessons, and completing high-quality work. Teachers also reported that these students had more difficulty paying attention. ____2____ “Just staying up late can cause increased academic difficulty and attention problems for otherwise healthy, well-functioning kids,” said Garharn Forllone, the study's lead author, “So the results provide professionals and parents with a clear message: ____3____” “If we don't ask about sleep and try to improve sleep patterns in kids' struggling academically, then we aren't doing our job,” Forllone said. “For parents,” he said, “the message is simple: Getting kids to bed on time is as important as getting them to school on time.”

Passage Two
Patricia Pania never wanted to be a national public figure. All she wanted to be was a mother and homemaker. ____4____ The impact killed her two-year-old daughter. Four months later, Pania reluctantly but courageously decided to try to educate the public and to fight for laws to ban drivers from using cell phones while a car is moving. She wanted to save other children from what happened to her daughter. In her first speech, Pania got off to a shaky start. ____5____ But as she got into her speech, a dramatic transformation took place. She stopped shaking and spoke with a strong voice. For the rest of her talk, she was a forceful and compelling speaker. She wanted everyone in the audience to know what she knew without having to learn it from a personal tragedy. Many in the audience were moved to tears, and to action. In subsequent presentations, Pania gained reputation as a highly effective speaker. Her appearance on a talk show was broadcast three times, transmitting her message to over 14 million people. ____6____
