【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[听力原文] Cats are creatures of habit. They like to go to sleep about the same time every day and for a certain length of time. They seem to have a natural clock inside them that tells them when to sleep. Cats supplement their regular sleep with occasional cat naps. Some experts feel that humans could also benefit from this habit. Cat naps help to build up energy in the body. They are also a good way to overcome boredom. Since cats have moods similar to those of humans, some experts believe that people can improve their moods and attitudes by cat napping! People might become happier and positive. A number of famous people have copied cats by taking cat naps during the day. The naps would usually last 15 to 30 minutes. Winston Churchill took cat naps. So did Presidents Harry Truman, John F, Kennedy, and Lyndon B. Johnson. These famous men were known for their energy. They were also able to work long hours, often into the night.
