>Song a better way to wake up 动听乐曲叫早效果更佳

Waking up to a catchy pop song rather than a beeping alarm can stop drowsiness, scientists claim. 科学家称，用朗朗上口的流行歌曲叫早比哔哔作响的闹钟能更有效地帮人赶走睡意。

Melodic songs such as the Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations" and The Cure's "Close to Me" can drive away morning sluggishness, say researchers. 研究人员称，"海滩男孩"乐队的《美好感受》和"治疗"乐队的《靠近我》等动听的歌曲还能使人摆脱晨醒迟缓。

Classical music, such as "Fur Elise" by Beethoven and "the Four Seasons" by Antonio Vivaldi, are also widely considered to be highly melodic by listeners and could also help reduce morning grogginess. 听众普遍认为贝多芬的《致爱丽丝》和维瓦尔第的《四季》等旋律鲜明的古典音乐也对减轻晨醒迟钝有效。

Researchers found that while sound is generally good at attracting human attention, melodic music may be better at holding it for longer and help get the brain going in the morning. 研究人员发现，虽然声音在吸引注意力方面通常都很奏效，但旋律性较强的音乐也许能让人注意力保持更长的时间，从而帮助大脑在早上能尽快运转起来。

>More than 300 dead in blasts 斯里兰卡进入紧急状态 连环爆炸逾300人丧生

Sri Lanka began a day of national mourning Tuesday with three minutes of silence to honor more than 300 people killed in suicide bomb blasts that have been blamed on a local Islamist group. Police said that 40 people were now under arrest over the suicide bomb attacks - the worst atrocity since Sri Lanka's civil war ended a decade ago. 斯里兰卡将23日定为全国哀悼日，民众静默三分钟，沉痛悼念自杀式连环爆炸案遇难者。斯里兰卡政府称，这一系列袭击案系当地伊斯兰激进组织策划实施，目前已导致超过300人丧生，是该国自10年前内战结束以来最严重的暴力事件。警方表示目前已逮捕了40名炸弹袭击事件嫌疑人。

Investigators are now hunting for clues on whether the local Islamist group named as the chief suspect - National Thowheeth Jama'ath (NTJ) - received "international support", said government spokesman Rajitha Senaratne. 政府发言人塞纳拉特纳表示，当地伊斯兰激进组织NTJ乃爆炸案主要黑手，但调查人员正在寻找线索，以查明该组织是否获得了"国际援助"。

The spokesman added that it was not possible for such "a small organization" to carry out such well coordinated suicide strikes. 该发言人表示，NTJ这个小型组织不可能实施一系列如此高度协同的自杀式袭击。

The state of emergency, which gave police and the military special powers to counter militant strikes, came into force at midnight Monday. Suspects can be detained without a court order. 自22日午夜开始，斯里兰卡进入国家紧急状态，警方和军队被授予打击恐怖犯罪的特别权力，他们可以在无逮捕令的情况下逮捕嫌疑犯。
