　　答案速查：C – A – G – E – D

　　题目解析：

　　1. C.根据第一段准备看小说，但是才读了三页，眼皮就打架了。第二段接着说，三分钟之前你可是一点都不困，并且这个侦探小说刚刚又有了一个新线索，采用这种对比的方式，是为了提出问题，那就是C. So, what has gone wrong?本来是正是精彩之处，本来正是你该兴奋的时刻，你却眼皮打架困了，哪里出错了？这个题目需要你看清第一段和第二段的这个对比。

　　2. 在第二段末尾承上启下提出问题之后，作者开始解释为什么读者会困的原因。第三段讲述了第一个原因：安静舒适的环境不但有利于读书，其实也是睡觉的良好条件。然后第四段其实还是在解释第一个原因。For many people, reading can be relaxing and enjoyable.（对于很多人来说，阅读是一种放松和享受）A. As a result, your mind and body are put in the appropriate mindset or mood to go to sleep. 那么因此，可以看出这个两个句子的因果关系。尤其是As a result，这种逻辑关系明显的词在提示，这个空不难做对。

　　3. 在3，4段解释完第一个原因之后，如果你仔细阅读，你发现到第五段作者开始讲第二个原因。This is especially true if your chosen book is really thick. And reading line after line of anything can make you feel like giving your eyes a break.从后推前面的句子，你选择的书尤其厚，一行一行的读下去，你的眼睛受不了，只想休息一下。可见这个是两个例证前面主题句的，因此主题句要与累，放松相关。G. The concentration required to process every word can be pretty exhausting, too. 这个选项就显得非常合适了。这里说出了睡前读书让人困的第二个原因，劳累了一天集中注意力读书的话会让人感觉非常疲惫，那么自然想睡觉了。

　　4. 第五段开头空+but转折句。这个就是最大的提示。But后面说你不想睡着的话，可以怎样怎样。看来是说另外一回事了。那么前面就应该还是说睡觉的事情。E. These factors all make reading a great activity to add to your pre-sleep routine if you're looking for ways to fall asleep faster.正好是对上面两个原因的总结，these factors 正好对应两个原因。到此为止，作者解释完了睡前看书困的原因，那么还提出了一些建议，如果你真想看书，那么建议你换个地方，换个时间或者换个方式，第五个空是对前面话所举出的一个具体例子。D. Reading in a public place like a coffee shop or park can also discourage dozing.很容易就找到了。

　　5. D如上所述。

　　You’ve finally tucked yourself into bed and cracked open the detective novel you’ve been waiting all day to get back to. Three pages later, you’re fighting a losing battle against two suddenly very heavy eyelids.

　　You were wide awake mere minutes ago, and the protagonist just uncovered a promising new lead in the case. So, what gives?

　　As the BBC’s Science Focus explains, the coziness of your covers could be working against you. People usually try to read in a quiet, comfortable atmosphere, and those conditions happen to be ideal for sleep. Reading also eases your mind and draws its focus away from whatever preoccupations might otherwise keep you awake.

　　“For many [people], reading can be relaxing and enjoyable, which can put your mind and body in the appropriate mindset or mood to go to sleep,” Dr. Raman Malhotra, a neurologist and member of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine’s board of directors, told Refinery29. “The main reason reading may help some fall asleep is that it allows your mind some time to rest and relax before turning out the lights to fall asleep.”

　　The concentration required to process every word can be pretty exhausting, too, especially if your chosen tome is dense. And reading line after line of anything can make you feel like giving your eyes a break.

　　These factors all make reading a great activity to add to your pre-sleep routine if you’re looking for ways to fall asleep faster. But if your body’s snoozing impulse is continually keeping you from enjoying a good book, there are some tricks to thwart it. Book Riot suggests reading in the morning, or trying an audiobook instead. Reading in a spot that isn’t your bed—preferably one where you’re sitting up, rather than lying down—can help, too. Reading in a public place like a coffee shop or park can also discourage dozing.
