Bedwetting

Millions of kids and teenagers from every part of the world wet the bed every single night. It’s so common that there are probably other kids in your class who do it. Most kids don’t tell their friends, so it’s easy to feel kind of1 alone, like you might be the only one on the whole planet who wets the bed. 1

The fancy name for bedwetting is nocturnal enuresis. Enuresis runs in families.2 This means that if you urinate, or pee, while you are asleep, there’s a good chance that a close relative also did it when he or she was a kid. 2

The most important thing to remember is that no one wets the bed on purpose4. It doesn’t mean that you’re lazy or a slob. 3 For some reason, kids who wet the bed are not able to feel that their bladder is full and don’t wake up to pee in the toilet. Sometimes a kid who wets the bed will have a realistic dream that he’s in the bathroom peeing — only to wake up later and discover he’s all wet6. Many kids who wet the bed are very deep sleepers. 4

Some kids who wet the bed do it every single night. Others wet some nights and are dry on others. A lot of kids say that they seem to be drier when they sleep at a friend’s or a relative’s house. 5 So the brain may be thinking, "Hey, you! Don’t wet someone else’s bed!" This can help you stay dry even if you’re not aware of it.

答案與題解：

1.F文章第一段主要講全世界每晚尿床的孩子不計其數(shù),但大多數(shù)孩子對自己尿床的事兒都閉口不言。因此你要是尿床的話,很容易感到你是獨(dú)自一人,好像全世界只有你一個人尿床,但事實(shí)并非如此。

2.D此段主要講尿床在家族中遺傳,也就是說,如果你有尿床的毛病,很可能你的近親中有人小的時候也尿床。因此說尿床是遺傳所致。

3. C此句之前的兩句話已經(jīng)說明沒有人會故意尿床,可見這是一件身不由己的事情。

4.B前一句講,許多尿床的孩子都睡得很沉,因此接下來自然要說想叫醒愛尿床的孩子是件很難的事。

5.E前一講,許多尿床的孩子說,在朋友或者親戚家中過夜時,他們似乎不會尿床,接下來就應(yīng)該講明其原因。

譯文：尿床

每天晚上全世界會有數(shù)百萬的孩子尿床。尿床現(xiàn)象如此普遍，以至于你們班里也可能有別的孩子也尿床。大多數(shù)孩子不會把自己尿床的事告訴朋友，因此很容易感到你是獨(dú)自一人，好像全世界只有你一個人尿床。但你并不是一個人。

尿床的學(xué)名是夜間遺尿。遺尿在家族中代代相傳.也就是說，如果你有尿床的毛病，很可能你的近親小的時候也尿床：正如你的那雙藍(lán)眼睛可能遺傳白你母親，或者你的兩條長腿遺傳自你的叔叔，你尿床也可能是遺傳所致。

很重要的一點(diǎn)是沒有人會故意尿床。尿床并不意味著你懶惰或是粗俗。這是件身不由己的事。因?yàn)槟承┰�因，尿床的孩子感覺不到他膀胱已滿而起來去上廁所。有時尿床的孩子會夢見自己真的在衛(wèi)生間撒尿.只是等醒來時才發(fā)現(xiàn)自己已經(jīng)濕透了。許多尿床的孩子都睡得很沉，想要叫醒一個尿床的孩子就像要叫醒一根木頭——他就是醒不過來。

有些孩子們每個晚上都尿床，另一些孩子則有時尿有時不尿。很多小孩說，他們在親戚或朋友家過夜時好像就不會尿床。這是因?yàn)樗麄円驌?dān)心尿床而睡得不多或是睡得不熟.他們的大腦可能在想：“嗨，可不能尿濕了別人的床!”盡管你自己并未意識到這一點(diǎn)，這種想法卻能幫助你抑制尿床。
