Reading AVersion en ligne Identify the key words and main ideas in the text. Then answer the questions. par Deisy Rodríguez 1 What is the primary purpose of the passage? a To describe fictional depictions of hibernation in movies. b To argue that human hibernation is currently safe for medical use. c To explain how scientific research into hibernation might benefit both space exploration and medical treatment. d To detail the daily activities of hibernating animals. 2 How is the passage structured? a It starts with background information on animal hibernators, then moves to human application. b It begins with a scientific study, broadens to potential space applications, and finally explores medical and biological implications. c It compares fictional and real hibernation methods in parallel sections. d It lists challenges scientists face before summarizing a timeline. 3 According to the passage, what physiological response did researchers target to mimic hibernation in humans? a Increasing muscular activity to generate heat. b Lowering body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, and metabolism. c Enhancing insulin resistance to accumulate fat. d Amplifying blood clotting to prevent bleeding. 4 In the sentence, "Although significant hurdles remain—such as sedative tolerance in humans and the extreme cardiovascular responses triggered in trials—the scientific community is optimistic." What does SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY refer to in the context of the passage? a The volunteers in the human study. b The specialized hibernating animals like bears and squirrels. c The researchers conducting the studies. d The sedatives used in the trials. 5 The passage states: “This ‘twilight sleep’ mimics hibernation without immobilizing sedatives or ventilators…” What does the word MIMICS most likely mean in this sentence? a Prevents b Controls c Repeats d Immitates 6 The passage says: “Researchers are also studying how hibernators like bears and squirrels prevent muscle atrophy, switch insulin resistance on and off…” What does the word ATROPHY mean in this sentence? a Injury caused by overuse b Infection caused by bacteria c Wasting away or weakening of body tissue d Growth of new muscle tissue 7 The passage says: “Efforts are underway to find a central ‘torpor switch’ in the brain that could trigger these states…” What does the word TRIGGER mean in this context? a Avoid b Improve c Cause to happen d Delay 8 Which of the following would be the most suitable title for the provided text? a Exploring Human Torpor: From Space Travel to Medical Advances b The Scientific Hurdles of Inducing Twilight Sleep c The Ground Squirrel and the Bear: A Model for Human Medicine d The Benefits of Human Hibernation: Medicine and Space 9 According to the second paragraph, what is a reason for agencies like NASA and ESA to be interested in human torpor? a It promises to reduce consumption of resources and protect against radiation. b It is a new technology that could replace traditional sedatives and ventilators. c It can lower the risk of psychological distress on long-duration missions. d It enables astronauts to perform complex tasks in a state of 'twilight sleep.' 10 What is the main topic of the third paragraph? a The challenges researchers face in translating animal hibernation to human medicine. b How bears and squirrels prevent muscle atrophy and blood clotting. c The role of low body temperature in treating heart attacks and strokes. d The medical benefits of human torpor beyond space exploration. 11 According to the fourth paragraph, scientists hope to pharmacologically replicate adaptations seen in various rodents. Which of the following is an adaptation specifically mentioned? a A sudden drop in body temperature to near-freezing levels. b The ability to completely halt blood clotting and circulation. c Stalled epigenetic aging. d The ability to withstand complete oxygen deprivation. Feedback 5 The term mimics here refers to how the twilight sleep “copies” or “reproduces” the state of hibernation. 6 Atrophy refers to the reduction in size or strength of muscles due to lack of use—common in long-term immobility. 7 Trigger in this sentence means to initiate or activate the process of entering torpor.

What is the primary purpose of the passage?

How is the passage structured?

According to the passage, what physiological response did researchers target to mimic hibernation in humans?

In the sentence, "Although significant hurdles remain—such as sedative tolerance in humans and the extreme cardiovascular responses triggered in trials—the scientific community is optimistic." What does SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY refer to in the context of the passage?

The passage states: “This ‘twilight sleep’ mimics hibernation without immobilizing sedatives or ventilators…” What does the word MIMICS most likely mean in this sentence?

The passage says: “Researchers are also studying how hibernators like bears and squirrels prevent muscle atrophy, switch insulin resistance on and off…” What does the word ATROPHY mean in this sentence?

The passage says: “Efforts are underway to find a central ‘torpor switch’ in the brain that could trigger these states…” What does the word TRIGGER mean in this context?

Which of the following would be the most suitable title for the provided text?

According to the second paragraph, what is a reason for agencies like NASA and ESA to be interested in human torpor?

What is the main topic of the third paragraph?

According to the fourth paragraph, scientists hope to pharmacologically replicate adaptations seen in various rodents. Which of the following is an adaptation specifically mentioned?
