Which of the following is the most appropriate title of the passage?
Identifying sleep patterns is difficult due to the lack of regular, high quality surveys. A 2004 study, however, found that average sleep duration is 7 hours, with two-thirds of the people surveyed sleeping 5.5-8.5 hours per night. About a third reported at least one episode of difficulty sleeping on a majority of nights. Whether sleep duration has decreased is hard to determine. According to one study (1983-2005), average adult sleep duration increased by 50 minutes, the prevalence of short sleep (less than 6 hours) decreased from 15% to 10%, and the prevalence of long sleep (greater than 9 hours) increased from 16% to 28%. Evidence on trends in children’s sleep is inconclusive. However, a more recent study found that children’s sleep increased by about 1 hour over the past century. Even if sleep has not worsened, experts emphasize that insufficient sleep duration is an important public health issue.

지문의 제목으로 가장 적절한 것은 “Are We Really Sleep-Deprived?”(우리는 정말 수면이 부족한가?)이다.
수면 시간이 줄었는지는 “hard to determine”(판단하기 어렵다)이라며, 평균 수면이 오히려 늘었다는 연구들을 소개한다. 그런데도 수면 부족은 공중보건 문제라고 마무리하므로, 통념을 되묻는 제목이 맞다.
“How are Sleep Disorders Diagnosed?”: 수면 장애의 진단 방법은 다루지 않는다.
“What are the Different Types of Sleep Disorders?”: 수면 장애의 유형을 나열하지 않는다.
“Why Do We Need Sufficient Sleep?”: 충분한 수면이 필요한 이유는 설명하지 않는다.
“What are the Consequences of Sleep Deprivation?”: 수면 부족의 결과가 아니라 수면 시간의 추세를 다룬다.
