Model answer

Differences in sleep patterns appear to reflect differences
in individuals’ occupations.

A Canadian study has pointed out, for example, that students typically sleep for
a consecutive 8-hour period each night, from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. This may be because
the central activity in their lives, study, takes place in normal daylight hours.
Similarly, business executives sleep consecutive hours, but perhaps because their
jobs are especially busy and stressful they sleep for 6 hours on average, getting
up around 5 a.m.

By contrast, truck drivers, probably because of their need to keep their trucks
on the road over long periods, tend to sleep in two 3-hour blocks: one between 7
and 10 a.m. and another from 4 to 7 p.m. Another occupation associated with broken
sleep schedules is that of doctors. They tend to retire to bed around 1 a.m. and
start their day at 7 a.m., but may be woken up to deal with emergencies in the middle
of the night. Finally, full-time mothers, especially those with young children,
tend to sleep when their babies do. Typically, they will sleep from 10 p.m. and
be awoken at 1 a.m. to comfort their babies for a couple of hours. They then go
back to bed to wake at 6 a.m., but nap for two hours or so in the early afternoon.

Thus the influence on one’s sleep pattern is worthy of consideration when choosing
an occupation.
