    The question is not merely an academic one. The ease with which people can change from working in the day to working at night is a【C2】______ of growing importance in industry where automation【C3】______round-the-clock working of machines. It normally takes from five days to one week for a person to adapt to a【C4】______ routine of sleep and wakefulness, sleeping during the day and working at night. Unfortunately, it is often the case in industry that shifts are changed every week.

选项

答案N

解析 空格前的whose提示空格需填入名词。上文提到“无论是每月一轮还是每三个月一轮,人们都会在周末恢复到正常的睡眠和清醒习惯(habits)”,空格所在句说那些长期值晚班的人才是真正解决问题的关键,由此可见他们的作息习惯在周末和节假日都能保持不变,因此空格处应填入habit。
