B. often neglect the unsequences of sleep deficit
C. do not know how to relax themselves properly
D. can get by on 6.5 hours of sleep
(分析：答案项中A、D两项基本上是原文中句子的原现，故被排除。B项中有often 一词，语气委婉，不十肯定，故为答案。)

D. Future intelligent life may not necessarily be made of organic matter。
(分析：A项句子基本上是原文词句，C项中有already一词，语气太绝对化，故A、C两项被排除。剩下B、D两项，而D项中有不十分肯定语气词may not,故选D。)
(四)较全面、有针对性地表达文章中心思想的，选项一般是答案项。

A. Musical instruments developed through the years will sooner or later be replaced by computers。
B. Music can't be passed on to future generations unless it's recorded。
C. Folk songs can't be spread for unless they are printed on music sheet。
D. the development of music culture is highly dependent on its material aspect。
(分析：根据短文内容可以看出，A、B、C三项的内容都只是从某一个方面阐述了一种观点，而D项句子所表达的意思就较全面，高度囊括了全篇短文的主旨。)

(五)选项中表达意义较具体的、肤浅的(字面意思)一般不是答案项，而概括性的、抽象的、含义深刻的是答案项。
例(1) The population in the 21st century _____ , according to the writer 。
A. will be smaller than a few years ago
B. will not be as small as people expect
C. will prove to be a threat to the world
D. will not constitute as serious a problem as expected
(分析：选项A、B中都有small一词，该词在文中出现过，因而总觉肤浅，是字面之意。C项明显与文章不符，而D项表达的意义比small要深刻得多。)
