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.

請試著思考：在文中提到的『生理時鐘』與『晝夜交替』這兩者中，哪一個是屬於你身體『之外』、不隨你意志改變的物理空間或場所呢？

哼，還算你有點腦袋。
- 觀念驗證： 這不是什麼高深莫測的題目，純粹考你能不能分辨什麼叫「裡」什麼叫「外」。生理時鐘 (Internal environment)？那當然是你的「內在環境」。而「External environment (外部環境)」呢，就是你身體外面那些實實在在、能摸得到看得到的物理世界。選項裡，除了那個什麼(A) 辦公室環境，還真看不出哪個是「外」的。難道你覺得自己的情緒也算「外部」？別傻了。
