Correct option - 5
1. First of all, word many is a noun which is used for a large number of people, places or things., that means it's a plural noun. Hence, according to sub-verb agreement, verb should also be plural. But, verbs used in option 1, 'draws' and 'wakes' are singular. Hence, option 1 is eliminated.
2 & 4. We refer to morning, afternoon and evening as 'in the morning', 'in the afternoon', 'in the evening' but not 'in the night' instead we say 'at night.' 'In night' shows a period of time, whereas, with reference to the context, there is a particular time to go to bed. Hence, options 2 & 4 are eliminated.
3. There is a specific preposition 'to' is used when it is used in the context of going to bed to sleep, i.e. 'go to bed'. 'In bed' is used when the person is already lying on the bed. Hence, option 3 is eliminated.
So, option 5 is the correct answer.
