    For years scientists have been arguing about whether nature or nurture (后天) decides what people will be like. Is it nature— what people are 1 with— that decides what they will be like? 2 is it nurture —what3to people when they are born —that decides what they will be like?
    Scientists have been studying twins to 4 if they can find the answer, because twins start out with the 5DNA. Sometimes twins don't live together at birth and grow up in different 6and different places— so the nature is the same for both, but the nurture is different.
    When scientists7 these twins in their later life, they some times find some surprising 8.
Jim Springer and Jim Lewis were adopted(收养)by two different families at birth. They first met each other again thirty-nine years 9and discovered they had a lot in 10. Both had been 11twice. Their first wives were both named Linda and their second wives were both named Betty!
    Each twin had a son — one called his son James Alan and the 12 called his son James Alan, too. Their children each had a dog called “Toy”. They even arrived at their first 13in the same color of car.
    So far twin14seem to show that both nature and nurture are important. What we have from birth, and how and where we live help to build 15 we are.

    When US student Olivia Priedeman, 17, woke up one morning, she thought she had had a dream about making plans with a friend.

    But it wasn't a dream. Her phone showed that during the night, Priedeman had read a text message from her friend. She did it while she was fast asleep.

    Reading and sending text messages while asleep called─ "sleep texting"─ is an unusual sleep behaviour, similar to sleep walking. It's also a growing problem among doctors: young people can't live without their cell phones.

    One in three teenagers sends more than 100 text messages a day, according to the Pew Internet & American Life Project. And at least four out of five teenagers said they sleep with their phone on or near their bed.

    Elizabeth Dowdell, a professor at Villanova University in Pennsylvania, has studied sleep texting. She said that having a phone nearby all night is a big part of the problem.

    Andrew Stiehm, a sleep medicine researcher with Allina Health in Minnesota, agrees. It's possible for the part of the brain that controls skills to wake up, while the part of the brain that controls memory and judgment(判断) may be still asleep. That's why some people can perform basic movements-such as walking, talking, texting or even driving while they're sleeping. Some of Dowdell's students said that they're disturbed by their nighttime texting behaviour. But because sleep texting is unconscious, it's a difficult habit to break. Dowdell said she knows of some students who wear socks on their hands to keep themselves from texting.

    Marjorie Hogan, a doctor at Hennepin County Medical Centre in Minneapolis, Minnesota, suggests keeping all electronic products outside the bedroom.
