29、 study more，get up early and study in the morning instead.”可知，经常发现青少年熬夜学习。研究表明睡眠有助于你理解和记住信息。如果你认为自己迫切需要多学习，那就早起，在早上学习。所以空处在文中要起到承上启下的作用。故F选项“这就是为什么青少年经常在睡眠不足时成绩很差的原因”符合句意。故F选项切题。2B由“Sleeping with your smartphone nearby results in 21 minutes less sleep each night.

30、 probably end up using it when you should be dreaming.”可知，每天晚上在手机旁睡觉的人每天会少睡21分钟。如果你的手机很容易拿到，那么你很可能在做梦的时候就会用上它。所以本段主要在说明睡觉时手机在旁边所带来的害处，意在告诉我们睡觉时不要把手机放在身旁。也就是本段的标题所要表达的内容。故B选项“睡觉时不要把手机放在身旁”符合句意。故B选项切题。3E由本段标题“Turn your phone on airplane mode”可知，将你的手机切换为飞行模式。所以空处要说明手机飞行模式所能够起到的作用。故E选项“直到你早上关掉飞行模式，你的短信才
31、会出现”符合题意。故E选项切题。4A由“Create a bedtime routine”中的“Having a bedtime routine will cause your body to prepare for sleep around that time each night. Set a time you think is proper and stick to it.”可知，每天晚上有规律的睡觉时间会让你的身体为睡觉做好准备。设定一个你认为合适的时间并坚持下去。故A选项“睡觉的时间不只是为婴儿设定的”符合句意。故A选项切题。5D由“Use your desk for working and your bed for sleeping”中的“Getting into bed to do homework，read，or check your phone may make you feel good”可知，躺在床上做作业、阅读或查看手机可能会让你感觉良好。所以空处要与前一句话表示转折关系，才能够说明本段的主题。通过对比选项，只有D选项中有转折连词but。故D选项“但是上床睡觉应该是睡觉的信号，而不是要做其他活动的信号”符合句意。故D选项切题。
