The artists used real dinosaur bones to form the reproductions so they are extremely lifelike.Witte MuseumOriginally established in 1926, this museum offers guests a comprehensive look at a more than 3-century span(跨度) of history. Called the centre where nature, science and culture meet, the museum prides itself on providing guests with immersive(沉浸式的) experiences, such as being taken back to cowboy days in the Heritage Centre or digging through sand to find dinosaur bones.The best part? The museum is constantly switching some exhibits to better suit the season and provide guests with a different experience each time they visit.Museum of IllusionsStep inside a completely new world at Orlandos newest exhibitionthe Museum of Illusions!

Researchers have found that inadequate sleep and tiredness increase a persons risk of developing severe medical conditions, such as obesity, high blood sugar levels, and heart disease. Now, a new study has found that getting enough sleep is also the key to improving academic performance. Jeffrey Gross, the university science professor who led the research, was not trying to find the relationship between sleep and grades when he handed out smart watches to the 100 students in his chemistry class. Instead, the professor hoped the wrist-worn devices, which track a persons physical activity, would show a connection between exercise and the academic achievement. While Grosss data showed no relationship between these two factors, the study found something surprising. As the researchers were analysing their data, they noticed that there was a straight-line relationship between the average amount of sleep students got and their results in the courses 11 quizzes, three midterm tests, and the final exam. Even more interesting, it was not enough for students to just head to bed early the night before a test. Instead, it was the sleep you got during the days when learning was happening that mattered most.The time students went to bed each night was similarly important. Those who went to bed in early hours of the morning performed poorly, even if the total sleep time was the same as a higher-performing student. “When you go to bed matters,” Gross says, “If you go to bed at 10, or 12, or 1 at night, and sleep for seven hours, your performance is the same. But if you go to bed after 2, your performance starts to go down even if you get the same seven hours. So, quantity isnt everything.”Perhaps the most interesting was the huge effect that small differences in sleep patterns had on students grades. The entire course grades for students averaging six and a half hours of sleep each night were 25% lower than students who averaged just one hour more sleep. Similarly,students who changed their bedtime by even one hour each night had grades that dropped 45% below those with more regular bedtime.4.Based on his original goals, which word best describes Professor Grosss research findings?A.Complete.B.Accidental.C.Convincing.D.Doubtful.5.Who were the people taking part in the study?A.University student athletes.B.Professor Grosss own students.C.Middle school chemistry students.D.Volunteers from different universities.6.How did Professor Grosss team measure academic perf
