第二節 (共5小題;每小題2分，滿分10分)

　　下面材料是某購物網上提供的一些跟睡眠有關的新產品的介紹。請仔細閱讀材料，從所給的六個選項(A、B、C、D、E和F)中，選出符合61—65各小題要求的最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。選項中有一項為多余選項。

　　A. Pillow Tie

　　Tried taking a snooze with the help of your tie? The Pillow Tie, which looks just like a normal tie when worn with a suit, comes with a larger knot (結) and holds a discreet air bag in the back side with a small mouthpiece hidden behind its ‘arrow end’ to blow up. The wearer simply has to lift the tie to their mouth, inflate (使膨脹) it and lay their head and ‘pillow’ on a desk.

　　The tie is perfect for the office, especially after lunch time, but more practically it is perfect for the early morning public transport journey as it can be inflated in seconds and make the journey more comfortable.

　　It is being sold through Amazon.com for $49.99.

　　B. LightSleeper

　　Millions of people have trouble falling asleep each night, which is why LightSleeper was created. Developed in the United Kingdom, LightSleeper can help a person fall asleep and also help a person fall back to sleep after waking in the middle of the night.

　　LightSleeper works by projecting a soothing light onto the ceiling while the person is lying down. The idea is to watch the light, because the circular motion of the light has a relaxing effect.

　　It has gone on sale this month at a price of $200.

　　C. Snore Stopper

　　No one likes being the one no one wants to sleep around.

　　Here’s a new product designed to slow down the frequency and level of your snoring (打鼾). The Snore Stopper has a sensitive micro-sound detector that will detect when you’re snoring. Once it does that, it will send a very mild electronic signal to your wrist. This consequently changes your sleeping position to stop you from snoring. This product won’t cause any damage to your body.

　　You can purchase it now for $36 from Amazon.com.

　　D. Zeo Personal Sleep Coach

　　Introduced by Zeo, this smart headband seems to be an ideal solution for your sleepless nights. It not only helps you sleep well but also is capable of giving you the information on how much, how well and how deep you are sleeping during the night. The information will be shown on your Zeo’s digital bedside display.

　　Zeo headband is light weight so you will not experience difficulties sleeping with it. You can pick up the Sleep Coach for $399.

　　E. SleepTrek3

　　For those poor souls who really have suffered years of abnormal sleeping patterns, the latest medical kit is the SleepTrek3. It is a small lightweight physiological data recorder specifically designed to assist the clinician in the diagnosis (診斷) of sleep-disordered breathing.

　　SleepTrek3, Type III Sleep Screener, uses sensors to record oxygen saturation, pulse rate, airflow, snoring, respiratory (呼吸的) effort and body position. The screener is able to record 12+ hours of patient data using a single 3.6-volt Lithium battery and a CompactFlashCard.

　　Sleep Trek3 is available on Amazon.com for $4,000.

　　F. Dreamate Sleep Inducer

　　This gadget (小器械) looks like a watch in general. It is worn in your wrist because it works on the “sleeping golden triangle” which is located on your left wrist. This gadget uses acupressure techniques to gently massage (按摩) that spot. It doesn’t only help you to relax and then fall asleep but also is able to retune and reset the biological clock of your body. All you need to do is just wearing it for 30 minutes before bedtime.

　　With the price $79.99, it sounds worth to try because it is said to be able to lower stress level and improve sleep quality.
