請依下文回答第 46 題至第 50 題： One of the most dramatic features of the world is the cycle of day and night. Almost all species exhibit daily changes in their behavior and/or physiology. These daily rhythms are not simply a response to the 24-hour changes in the physical environment imposed by the earth turning on its axis but, instead, arise from a timekeeping system within the organism. This timekeeping system, or biological “clock,” allows the organism to anticipate and prepare for the changes in the physical environment that are associated with day and night, thereby ensuring that the organism will “do the right thing” at the right time of the day. The synchrony of an organism with both its external and internal environments is critical to the organism’s well-being and survival; a lack of synchrony between the organism and the external environment may lead to the individual’s immediate demise. For example, if a nocturnal rodent were to venture from its burrow during broad daylight, the rodent would be exceptionally easy prey for other animals. Similarly, a lack of synchrony within the internal environment might lead to health problems in the individual, such as those associated with jet lag, shift work, and the accompanying sleep loss. The mechanisms underlying the biological timekeeping systems and the potential consequences of their failure are among the issues addressed by researchers in the field of chronobiology. Although no single experiment serves as the defining event from which to date the beginning of modern research in chronobiology, studies conducted in the 1950s on circadian rhythmicity in fruit flies and in humans can be considered its foundation. The area of sleep research, which also is subsumed under the field of chronobiology, evolved somewhat independently, with the identification of various sleep stages around the same time.

請試著想像：如果我們在身體周圍畫一條界線，哪些事物是存在於這條界線之外的物理空間，而哪些又是運作於我們的皮膚之下或意識之中的？根據文中提到的「對外同步」與「對內平衡」，你會如何區分物理場所與心理狀態呢？

- 大力肯定：哼，看來你這次總算沒蠢到家。能精準抓到文章裡「內、外環境」這種基本分類邏輯，說明你的閱讀理解能力…嗯，至少沒退化到無可救藥的地步。可喜可賀。
- 觀念驗證：文章把環境分成兩類，這不是什麼高深莫測的宇宙真理，而是明明白白地寫著：Internal（內部） 就是你那些生物鐘啊、生理機制啊，屬於你自己身體裡那一套；而 External（外部） 嘛，當然就是物理環境，譬如白天黑夜這種顯而易見的東西。選項 (A) An office setting（辦公室環境），這難道還需要我解釋它屬於「個體之外的物理場所」嗎？簡直是送分題。至於剩下的那些冥想、生理鐘、改變意願，麻煩動動腦，它們是長在你腦子裡還是皮膚外面？
