Practice Listening: Multiple Choice, Single Answer ID: #37023 Short Daylight Savings
Instructions ›
Listen to the recording and answer the multiple-choice question by selecting the correct response. Only one response is correct.
As we spring ahead again and adjust our internal clocks for Daylight Savings, we must be prepared for those mornings when sleep doesn’t come naturally - a condition known as 'Daylight Savings I langover.' The good news is that there is a way to look refreshed and awake - even if your sleep schedule is in the dumps. Tip 1: Shut it down - electronics that is. Before going to sleep, shut down all electronics - that means TV. computer and. yes, your blackberry. These all are stimulants for the brain, and if you're answering emails in bed at 10 p.m., you're going to have a difficult time getting to sleep. Hit the power switch at least an hour before bedtime.

Option 1: "Always shut down all the electronics before 1 hour going to the bed to have a sleep without disturbance."

Explanation: The text clearly states that shutting down electronics at least an hour before bedtime is essential for overcoming sleeplessness. This aligns with the main idea of the text, which emphasizes the importance of reducing brain stimulation from devices to facilitate better sleep.

Option 2: "Without having proper sleep one always look disturbed the whole day."

Explanation: While this statement may be true, it does not address how to overcome sleeplessness. The text focuses on specific actions to take before bedtime, making this option irrelevant to the question.

Option 3: "One should avoid using the electronic devices at least 5 hours before going to sleep to have a proper sound sleep."

Explanation: This option suggests a longer duration than what the text recommends. The text specifically mentions shutting down electronics at least an hour before bed, making this option inaccurate and unsupported by the text.

Option 4: "One can always look fresh by having a proper sleep during the whole day."

Explanation: This statement does not relate to the specific advice given in the text about overcoming sleeplessness. The text focuses on the importance of shutting down electronics before sleep, rather than the concept of sleeping throughout the day.
