Part D Reading & Your Opinion

D_1

Next, let’s read about animal sleep patterns.

D_2

Different Animal Sleep Patterns

Animals show a wide range of sleeping styles, and their habits depend on their environments and diets. Koalas sleep for many hours because they eat eucalyptus leaves that contain toxins, and they must usea lot of energy to get rid of them. In contrast to koalas, giraffes rest only for short periods since they have to eat large amounts of food each day. Other large grazing animals also sleep briefly because they need to stay alert to avoid danger. Meat-eating animals sleep longer because their food provides enough nutrition, so they spend less time finding meals. Some marine animals, such as whales and dolphins, cannot stop moving because they need to breathe at the surface. Dolphins show a special sleeping behavior by resting one side of their brain at a time. These differences show how animals adapt to survive.

D_3

Now, please answer the questions based on the passage.

D_4

1. Why do koalas need to expend so much energy in order to sleep safely?

Answer: ________________________________________.

2. How do dolphins continue to breathe while they are sleeping?

Answer: ________________________________________.

3. Which animals sleep only for short periods to avoid danger from predators?

Answer: ________________________________________.

D_5

Let’s express your opinions on today’s topic. Give at least one reason or example to support your opinion. You have one minute to prepare.

D_6

Topic 1: Diet and Productivity

In the reading, we learned that koalas sleep to digest food. Humans also experience the “afternoon slump” (feeling tired after eating).

Question 1:

Just like the koala, do you find that your brain slows down or you feel sleepy after lunch? Does it depend on what or how much you eat?

Answer:

⭕Yes, I get sleepy when I eat __________________________.

❌Not really. I usually have ___________ for lunch, and I stay alert in the afternoon.

Question 2:

Unlike koalas, we cannot sleep during class. Do you have a special way to wake yourself up? If yes, tell me about it. If not, please think of a way you could try.

Answer:

⭕Yes, when I feel sleepy, I try to [action] __________________________ to wake myself up.

Also, to avoid feeling sleepy, I choose [food️] ____________.

❌No, I don’t currently have one.
But I think I should try to __________________________.

Hint: eating less lunch, stretching, using eye drops, or fixing your posture

D_7

That’s a valuable point. Wonderful job!

D_8

Topic 2: Staying Up Late vs. Sleeping Early

Giraffes sleep very little because they prioritize eating and safety over sleeping. They have a necessary reason to stay awake. How do you usually spend your time at night?

Question 1:

First, tell me about your typical night.
What time do you usually go to bed, and what are you usually doing right before you sleep?
(e.g., studying, using your phone, or playing a game)

Answer:

I usually go to bed around [time⏰] ______.
Before sleeping, I usually [action] ___________________.

Question 2:

Now, evaluate your answer in Step 1.
Is that activity “productive” (a necessary reason to stay awake), or are you just “wasting time”? Please tell me the reason why you think so.

Answer:

⭕I think this time is necessary for me.
Because ________________.

Hint: …it is the only time I can relax. / …I need to focus on my hobbies. / …I have to study for exams.

❌I think this time is just wasting time for me.
Because ________________.

Hint: …I just use my phone without thinking. / …I do it just out of habit. / …I feel tired the next morning.

D_9

That’s a very thoughtful answer. Thank you for sharing.

D_10

Topic 3: Sleep and Busy Schedules

When we are very busy, our sleep habits often change. Some people sleep less, while others try to keep a stable routine.

Question:

Think about a busy time, like “exam weeks.” Do you usually sleep less during these times?
If yes, what keeps you awake?
If no, how do you keep your sleep schedule?

Answer: Choose specific reasons from the hints below.

⭕Yes, I do. During exam weeks, I sleep less because __________________________.

[Hints for Reason]
…I stay up late to study / memorize words. (Studying)
🛌…I feel anxious and can’t fall asleep. (Stress)
…I watch videos to relax from studying. (Escape)

❌No, I don’t. Even during exam weeks, I sleep well because __________________________.

[Hints for Method]
⏰✍️…I decide to stop studying at 11 PM. (My Rule)
🧠…my brain works better if I sleep. (Health)
🛌…I give up and go to bed! (Giving up)

D_11

Great! Thank you for sharing your idea.

Part E Koala vs. Giraffe—Which One Are You?

E_1

Next, let’s compare two very different animal sleep styles: koalas and giraffes.
Let’s enjoy thinking creatively!

E_2

STEP 1: Check the Sleep Styles
First, let’s review the sleep styles of koalas and giraffes.

E_3

Question 1:How many hours do koalas and giraffes sleep?

Answer:

Koalas need ______________________.

🦒 Giraffes need ______________________.

Question 2: What do they do when they are awake?

Answer:

Koalas ______________________.

🦒 Giraffes ______________________.

E_4

Good job! Let’s see the next questions.

E_5

STEP 2: If You Had Their Schedule…
Now, let’s imagine you live like these animals. Please imagine their schedule and tell me how you would feel.

E_6

Case 1: The “Koala Style” Life

(You sleep 20 hours a day. You have only 4 hours of free time.)

Question: If you had only 4 hours to be awake, how would you feel? Would you feel happy to sleep a lot, or stressed about having no time?

Answer:

I would feel ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ because ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿.

Case 2: The “Giraffe Style” Life

(You sleep only 2 hours a day. You have 22 hours of free time!)

Question: If you had 22 hours of free time but only 2 hours of sleep, how would you feel? Would you feel excited to play, or sick from lack of sleep?

Answer:

I would feel ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ because ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿.

E_7

Thank you for sharing your ideas.

E_8

STEP 3: Which One Would You Choose?
Finally, please make your choice. Remember the difference:

E_9

Koala Style: You value “Sleep” more. (Sleep 20h > Active 4h)

🦒 Giraffe Style: You value “Active Time” more. (Active 22h > Sleep 2h)

Question: Which sleep style fits your personality better—Koala or Giraffe? Please tell me your reason.

Answer:

I would choose [ Koala / Giraffe ] style.

Because I prioritize sleep. If I don’t sleep enough, I can’t [ study / play with my friends, etc.].

🦒 Because I prioritize free time. I want more time to ___________ [hint: do my hobbies / play with friends, etc.].

E_10

Excellent! You used your imagination very well.

Part D Reading & Comprehension Check

D_1

Let’s start by reading through today’s passage.

D_2

Secrets of Long Life

Researchers study why some people live longer than others, and they often find similar lifestyle habits. Many seniors stay close to family, which helps reduce stress and supports longevity. When people feel supported, they are less likely to suffer from serious problems. Regular movement also matters. Walking, gardening, or simple daily work can lead to better physical and mental health. Some older people look after plants or small gardens, which gives them purpose and keeps them active. Friends and local groups also help. They often encourage older adults to meet others, talk, and enjoy life. These habits may look small, but they can have an extraordinarily positive effect on life.

D_3

Now, please answer the questions based on the passage.

D_4

1. Who helps reduce stress for many seniors?

Answer:
Hint: Think about the people who stay close to them.

2. What activity can lead to better health?

Answer:
Hint: Look for an action that uses your body.

3. Why do older people look after plants?

Answer:
Hint: It gives them something important in their daily life.
