C Correct answer
Explanation

This is a wordplay riddle. The question asks how someone can go eight days without sleep, and the answer is that they sleep at night. The riddle relies on the ambiguity of "without sleep" - it could mean continuously without sleeping, or it could mean going through daytime periods without sleeping. Everyone sleeps at night, so going days without sleep is impossible if interpreted literally.
