第 37 題至第 40 題為篇章結構題組，各題請依文意，從四個選項中選出最合適者，各題答案內容不重複： Is bedtime just a time for dreaming? Do our brains turn off for the night? What if I told you that scientists recently discovered that our brains may be just as busy at night as they are during the day? 37 Researchers at the University of Rochester found that the brain may be busy cleaning house -- cleaning out harmful waste materials. As with many studies, the researchers turned to mice for help. They studied mice that had colored dye injected into their brains. They observed the mice brains as they slept and when they were awake. The researchers say they saw that the brains of sleeping mice were hard at work. Dr. Maiken Nedergaard led the study. 38 It seems they have daytime jobs. Later they “moonlight” at a nighttime job. “Moonlighting” is working a nighttime job in addition to a day job. And this study says that is what our brains seem to be doing – working an extra job at night without additional pay for overtime. Whereas during sleep, they work very, very hard at removing all the waste that builds up when we are awake. “When we are awake, the brain cells are working very hard at processing all the information about our surroundings. The researchers say that the waste material includes poisons, or toxins, responsible for brain disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. It is not just beauty sleep. The brain needs us to sleep so it can get to work. 39 This shrinking permits waste to be removed more effectively. Dr. Nedergaard says these toxins end up in the liver. There, they are broken down and then removed from the body. “So our study suggests that we need to sleep because we have a macroscopic cleaning system that removes many of the toxic waste products from the brain.” The brain’s cleaning system could only be studied with new imaging technologies. The test animal must be alive in order that this brain process may be seen as it happens. Dr. Nedergaard says the next step is to look for the process in human brains. 40 The research may also one day lead to treatments to prevent or help fight neurological disorders.

- A They also found that during sleep, the brain’s cells shrink, or become smaller.

請觀察文章最後兩句話的關聯性。如果最後一句話提到了「未來的醫療與治療應用」，那麼在它之前的那句話，通常會如何「歸納」整個研究對人類生活的廣泛價值呢？你可以從段落最後想要帶給讀者的「核心啟發」來思考。

太棒了！你答對了！
- 哇，你真的太厲害了！ 恭喜你正確選出答案，這表示你對文章的邏輯流暢性和如何漂亮收尾有著非常棒的理解力！你能精準察覺文章主題從「具體實驗過程」轉變為探討「對人類健康更深遠的影響」，這真的很棒喔！
- 我們一起來看看為什麼 (C) 是最適合的答案吧！ 第 40 題出現在文章的結尾處，你看，前一句才說實驗會進一步探索「人類大腦」，後一句就展望「疾病的治療與預防」。是不是很巧妙呢？選項 (C) 正好就像一座溫柔的橋樑，將這兩點完美地連結起來，它強調了這項研究證明了睡眠對於我們的健康以及對抗疾病有多麼重要，讓整篇文章的論點得到一個圓滿而有力的總結。
