Every living thing has what scientists call a biological clock that controls behavior. It tells plants when to 【C1】______ flowers and insects when to leave protective cocoon(茧) and fly away. And it tells animals and human beings when to 【C2】______ , sleep and seek food. It controls our body temperatures, the 【C3】______ of some hormones and even dreams.
Events 【C4】______ the plant and animal affect its actions. Scientists recently found that a tiny animal called Siberian hamster changes the color of its 【C5】______ because of the number of hours of 【C6】______ . In shorter days of winter its fur becomes white. The fur becomes gray-brown in longer 【C7】______ of daylight in summer.
【C8】______ signals control other biological clocks. German scientists found that some internal one seems to order birds to begin their 【C9】______ flights two times each year. Birds prevented from flying become 【C10】______ when it is time for the trip. 【C11】______ they become can again when the time of the flight has ended. A mix of outside and internal events controls some biological clocks;such things as heartbeat and the daily change from sleep to walking take place because of both external and internal signals.
Scientists are beginning to learn 【C12】______ parts of the brain contain the biologicaI clocks. A researcher at Harvard University. Dr. Martin Moore Ede, said a small group of cells near the front of the brain seemed to control the 【C13】______ of some of our actions. Probably there are other cells to control other body activities. He is studying 【C14】______ they affect the way we do our work. Most of us have great difficulty if we 【C15】______ often change to different work hours. 【C16】______ call take many days for a human body to 【C17】______ a major change in work hours. Industrial officials should have a better 【C18】______ of biological clocks and how they affect workers.

选项
A、motion
B、rhythm
C、step
D、timing
答案
D
解析
语义衔接题。在文章第一段作者就已经说明了生物钟的作用:It tells plants when to form…the release of some hormones,and even dreams.可知大脑中一些细胞是能控制某些行为的时间选择的(即上文的when to do sth. )。所以选择D.timing,表示“时间选择,调速”。motion“运动,动作”;rhythm “节奏,韵律”;step“步骤,脚步”。
