A private sixth form is set to move lessons to start at 1.30pm every day because the school's teacher thinks his teenage pupils will study better after a morning lie in. 英国一家私立中学计划将学生的上课时间定为每天下午1:30，因为校长认为小学生早上睡好觉的话学习效果更好。 Instead of rising early for a 9am start, pupils at the £15,000-a-year Hampton Court House, in East Molesey, Surrey, will get to enjoy a lie in and work from 1.30pm until 7pm. 这就是英国萨里郡的汉普顿皇家学校，学费每年15000英镑，那儿的学生们不用早早起床9点去上课了。 Head teacher Guy Holloway says the move for all sixth form pupils, set to kick in from September, has been made in light of research by neuroscientists. 校长盖伊·霍洛威称这项计划将会在9月实施，计划是根据神经科学家们的研究制定的。 He predicts that not only will his students aged 16 and upwards get a quality night's sleep, but their cognition and productivity will also be improved. 他预测16岁及16岁以上的学生不但能睡个好觉，他们的认知能力和效率也会提高。 The co-educational school will have the latest start time in the UK, and will be the only one to begin lessons in the afternoon. 这所男女同校的中学将会是英国所有学校中上课时间最迟的，也是唯一一所只在下午上课的学校。 |
