下面文章中有5處需要添加小標題。請從以下選項（A、B、C、D、E和F）中選出符合各段意思的小標題。選項中有一項是多余選項。

A. Kripke’s Research Tool

B. Dangers of Habitual Shortages of Sleep

C. Classification of Sleep Problems

D. A Way of Overcoming Insomnia

E. Sleep Problems of Long and Short Sleepers

F. Oversleeping — Too Much of a Good Thing

1. ______

Although the dangers of too little sleep are widely known, new research suggests that people who sleep too much may also suffer the consequences.

2. ______

Investigators at the University of California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep, as well as a number of other sleep problems, than people who sleep 8 hours a night. People who slept only 7 hours each night also said they had more trouble falling asleep and feeling refreshed after a night’s sleep than 8-hour sleepers.

3. ______

Previous studies have shown the potential dangers of chronic(慢性的) shortages of sleep — for instance, one report demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than people who sleep more.

4. ______

For the current report, Kripke reviewed the responses of 1,004 adults to sleep questionnaires, in which participants indicated how mush they slept during the week and whether they experienced any sleep problems. Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night, arising early in the morning and being unable to fall back to sleep, and having tiredness interfere with day-to-day functioning.

5. ______

Kripke found that people who slept between 9 and 10 hours each night were more likely to report experiencing each sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours. In an interview, Kripke noted that long sleepers may struggle to get rest at night simply because they spend too much time in bed. As evidence, he added that one way to help insomnia is to spend less time in bed. “It stands to reason that if a person spends too long a time in bed, then they’ll spend a higher percentage of time awake,” he said.

 根據句意，調查顯示一晚睡9-10個小時和睡7個小時的人均有一系列睡眠或其它問題較之睡8小時的人，故E符合。

 從信息詞the potential dangers of chronic(慢性的) shortages of sleep 可知選擇答案B

 從信息句Kripke reviewed the responses of 1,004 adults to sleep questionnaires,中的關鍵詞 sleep questionnaires可知是談論Kripke 的研究工具，故選A

 從信息句one way to help insomnia is to spend less time in bed 可知正確答案為D

考點：科普類文章。

點評：給科普類文章找小標題，也屬于主旨題型一類。其測試目的也是為了考查考生對文章主題的理解。但是，相對于主旨題而言，需要考生具備更強的概括能力。在處理這類題型的閱讀理解題時，考生也必須通讀全段，抓住或概括文段的信息句或信息詞，然后根據命題者所提供的選項，排除不合理選項（這些選項有時概括得過于寬泛，超出了文段的內容，有時又過于狹窄或過于偏頗。）然后比對選項，即可以找到對應的答案。
