42、上文提出问题，选项对问题进行回答，且so指代上文“喜欢在深夜学习”这种情况。故选B项。【12题详解】根据第三段中“the benefits of studying at night can be reduced by the drowsiness (昏昏欲睡) of missing sleep!（晚上学习的好处会因为缺少睡眠而降低!）”可知，本段说的是睡眠时间对学习效率的影响，选项G中“科学也指出睡眠时间的长短会影响学习成绩”符合第三段关于睡眠时间影响学习的主要内容。故选G项。【13题详解】选项F中“弄清楚你是一个早起的人还是一个夜猫子。”而空后的内容“Try getting up early
