C (词数：约200；建议用时：7分钟)

Nearly everyone knows that flowers of different plants open and close at different times of the day. Why do flowers open and close at a particular(特殊的)time？No one really understands it because it is not as simple as we might think. So one experiment was done by the scientists. They kept flowers in darkness for a long time. We might expect that the flowers，without any information about the time of the day，did not open as they usually do. In fact they continued to open at their usual time. This suggests that they have some mysterious(神秘的)way of knowing the time.

Their sense of time does not depend on information from the outside world. It is inside them: a kind of “inner clock”．This discovery may not seem to be very important. However，it was later found that not just plants but animals including man have this “inner clock” which controls(控制)working of their bodies and their activities. Human beings are also controlled by the mysterious power. Whether we wish it or not，it affects such things in our life as our need for sleep，our need for food，and our ability to concentrate(集中)．

56．The experiment in the first paragraph was done for finding out ________.

A．when different flowers open and close

B．if flowers have a mysterious way of knowing the time C．how flowers were used to tell the time in the darkness D．why flowers open and close at a particular time

57．Before the experiment，people had thought that the flowers ________.

A．would never open in darkness

B．would change their usual time to open C．would continue to open at their usual time

59．From the passage, we know that ________ do not have mysterious power inside.

A．wild animals B．human beings

C．all creatures(生物) D．lifeless things

60．We may know that if we make good use of the “inner clock”，________．

A．we will have more energy to do our work B．clocks or watches are no longer useful to us C．we will be able to live as long as we wish to

D．human beings will need less sleep，less food or less movement 八、词语运用(每小题2分，共10分)
