【解析】

試題分析：這篇短文主要介紹了中國孩子的睡眠問題，并針對這一現象提出了合理的建議。

1.聯系上下文可知大部分中國學生得不到足夠的睡眠。結合首字母可知填enough，足夠的。

2.聯系下文可知父母喜歡看到孩子睡得很晚，結合首字母可知填sleep，睡覺。

3.聯系下文可知是一位母親告訴我們，結合語境可知本句描述的是過去的動作，結合首字母可知填故去時態動詞told，告訴。

4.聯系下文可知句意為：當他的眼睛仍舊閉著時，結合首字母可知填when當……時。

5.聯系上下文可知他不得不在六點以前起床，結合首字母可知填before在……以前。

6.聯系上下文可知句意為：一個報告顯示，根據語境可知本句敘述的是客觀性動作，主語為單數第三人稱，謂語動詞用單數形式。結合首字母可知填shows，顯示。

7.聯系上文be weaker 可知后面為比較對象，結合首字母可知填than，比……。

8.考察定語從句。根據先行詞the only reason 可知引導詞用why，為什么。

9.聯系上文可知這同樣也是一個原因，結合首字母可知填also，也。

10.結合語境可知句意為：因此一些聰明的學生從來不學習到很晚，結合首字母可知填never，從來不。

考點：短文中詞匯短語的運用能力

點評：首字母一直是英語考試中的難點，得分率比較低。解答此類題型的方法一般就是根據文章前后句子之間意思推斷出詞義，并結合首字母推斷出所缺單詞，然后根據該單詞在句子中的句子成分，所起作用，確定單詞詞形，進行適當詞形變化。
