Yes, cicadas do indeed sleep. The Magicicada of eastern North America spends 13 to 17 years of its life sleeping before emerging as an adult cicada and lives for a few weeks.
Cicadas typically spend around 2 to 17 years underground in their nymph stage before emerging as adults. This period of dormancy is known as their "sleep," during which they feed on plant roots and undergo stages of growth and development.
Cicadas stick their proboscis into a tree branch and suck the juices from the tree. You should check out Massachusetts Cicadas for a lot more on that.
Yes, some cicadas have annual life cycles that result in them emerging each summer. These cicadas are known as annual cicadas and typically have shorter life cycles compared to periodical cicadas, which emerge in specific years in large numbers.

The advantage to the environment is that lots of animals that consume cicadas get a lot to eat. The advantage to the cicadas is that there are a lot of potential mates with corresponding genetic diversity. Some plants may not survive a large infestation of cicadas but those individual plants that survive will contribute genetic material to future generations.
Cicadas spend most of their lives sleeping. They wake up for a few weeks, mate and then die. They only show up every 13 or 17 years.

No, cicadas are not carnivorous. Both the larvae (nymphs) and adults feed on plant sap.

There is no standard collective noun for cicadas. However, any noun that suits the context of the situation can function as a collective noun, for example, a chorus of cicadas, a clatter of cicadas, a din of cicadas, etc.
That depends on how much you care about the cicadas
