From diary entries and other personal【C2】______from the 18th and 19th centuries, sleep scientists have reached the conclusion that the average person used to sleep about 9.5 hours a night.

A)consequences B)complexity C)ingenious D)dramatically
E)suffers F)tracked G)realize H)expensive
I)slightly J)traced K)detaches L)vigorous

选项
答案
