Passage 1 = Qn8Y`U
The first navigational lights in the NewWorld were probably lanterns hung at harbor entrances. The fast lighthouse wasput tip by Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1716 on Little Brewster Island at theentrance to Boston Harbor. Paid forand maintained by "light dues"levied on ships, the original beacon was blown up in 1776. By then there wereonly a dozen or so true lighthouses in the colonic. Little over a century later,there were 700 lighthouses. BC85#sbl
The first eight erected on the West Coast inthe 1850's featured the same basic New England design: a Cape Cod dwelling withthe tower rising from the center or standing close by. In New England andelsewhere, though., lighthouses reflected a Variety of architectural styles.Since most stations in the Northeast were built.on rocky eminences, enormoustowers were not the rule. Some were made of stone and brick, others "ofwood or metal. Some stood on pilings or stilts: some were fastened to rock withiron rods. "Farther south, from Marylandthreugh the Florida Keys, thecoastwas low and sandy. It was often necessary to戀甀椀氀搀 tall towers there -- massive structures like the majestic CapeHatteras. North Carolina. lighthouse, which was lit in 1870. At 190 feet it isthe tallest brick lighthouse in the country. o{' JO3
NOt withstanding differences in appearanceand construction, mostAmerican lighthouses shared several features: a light,living quarters, and sometimes a bell ( or, later; a foghorn). They alsohad something else in common: a keeperand, usually, the keeper's family. Thekeeper's essential task was trimming the lantern wick in order to maintain asteady, bright flame. The earliestkeepers came from every walk of life --- they were seamen, farmers, mechanics,rough mill hands -- and appoint ments were often handed out by local customscommissioners as political plums. After the administration of lighthouses wastaken over in 1852 by the United States Lighthouse Board, an agency of. theTreasury Department, the keeper corps gradually became highly professional.

Passage 2 /b{Ufo3v
Every living thing has an inner biologicalclock that controls behavior. The clock works all the time even when there areno outside signs to mark the passing of time. The biological dock _2<k,Dl;RY
tells plants whento form flowers and when the flowers should open. It tells insects when to WWA!_
leave theprotective cocoon and fly away. And it tells animals when to eat, sleep andwake. It ab5i7@Ed
controls bodytemperature, the release of some hormones and even dreams.these natural daily 7':<I-Fm
events arecircadian rhythms. 8yGo\\=T
Man has known about them for thousands ofyears. But the first scientific observation of )7F$:*e
Circadian rhythmswas not made until 1729. In that year French astronomer. Jean-Jacques 0[s<!k9=
d'Ortous de Mairan,noted that one of his plants opened its leaves at the same time every FFc?Av?_
morning, and closedthem at the same time every night. The plant did this even when he kept zQtx
!k=
it in a dark placeall the time. Later scientists wondered about circadian rhythms .in humans. l 4cTN
@E
They learned thatman's biological clock actually keeps time with-a day of-a litde less than 25 P'k`H
hours instead ofthe 24 hours On a man-made clock. About four years ago an American doctor, (PnrY~9
Eliot. Weitzman,established a laboratory to study how our biological clock works. The people in 5{#y

his experiments areshut off from the outside world. They are free to listen to and live by their gjy:o5{vA*
circadian rhythms.Dr. Weitzman hopes his research will lead to effective treatments for -axmfE?g0
common sleepproblems and sleep disorders caused by aging and mental illness. The laboratoryis H.TPKdVX
in the MontefloreHospital in New York City. It has two living areas with three small rooms in T( bFn?
each. The windowsare covered, so no sunlight or moonlight comes in. There are no radios or V7>{,
televisionreceivers. There is a control room between the living areas. It contains computers, Oc^bbC
one-way cameras andother electronic devices for observing the person in the living area; The .w~zW*M0
instruments measureheartbeat, body temperature, hormones in the blood, other substances in K-7i4

the urine and brainwaves during sleep. A doctor or medical technician is on duty in the control y7#vH<
room 24 hours a dayduring an experiment They do not work the same time each day and are not s KOy6v
permitted to wearwatches, so the person in the laboratory has no idea what time it is. In the a EqDxr6
first four years ofresearch, Dr Weitzman and his assistant have observed 16 men between the 96CC5
ages of 21 and 80.The men remained in the laboratory for as long as six months. Last month, 4 Yl:1rz
a science reporterfor The New York Times newspaper, Dava Sobol, became the first woman to T8J[B( )L
