The idea that people might be chosen or rejected for jobs on the basis of their genes disturbs many. Such【C1】______may however, be a step 【C2】______ , thanks to work just published in Current Biology by Derk-Jan Dijk and his colleagues at the University of Surrey, in England. Dr. Dijk studies the biology of timekeeping—in particular of the part of the internal body-clock that 【C3】______people to sleep and wakes them up. One of the genes involved in 【C4】______ this clock is known as PER3 and【C5】______in two forms. Dr. Dijk’s work【C6】______that one of these forms is more conducive to night-shift work than the other.
The two forms of PER3 【C7】______ into two slightly different proteins, one of which is longer than the other.【C8】______work by this group showed that people with two short versions of the gene are more likely to be "owls", 【C9】______ to get up late and go to bed late. "Larks"—【C10】______, early risers, have two long versions. Pursuing this【C11】______of enquiry, Dr. Dijk and his team have been studying how such people【C12】______to sleep deprivation. Two dozen volunteers, some genetic owls and some genetic larks, were forced to stay awake for two days. The genetic larks reacted to this worse than the owls did.【C13】______, larks given memory tests and puzzles to【C14】______between the hours of four and eight in the morning turned【C15】______far worse performances than did owls.
What【C16】______that may have for employers is not fully clear. Nevertheless, it is intriguing. There may【C17】______come a time when employers【C18】______night shifts will want a blood sample from【C19】______employees—【C20】______to protect themselves against negligence suits should someone have an accident.
【C12】
选项
A、manage
B、yield
C、respond
D、adapt
答案
C
解析
考查上下文语义。空格处所在句意为:沿着这个思路,狄克博士和他的研究小组一直在研究这两种类型的人是如何______睡眠不足的。根据下文可知,研究主要是观察人在睡眠缺乏情况下是如何反应的,而不是研究他们如何“屈从于(yield)”或“适应(adapt)”睡眠不足的情况。manage“解决,应付”,一般与with搭配,不符合用法;respond to意为“做出反应”,符合文意。因此正确答案为C.respond。
