A mix of outside and internal events controls some biological clocks; such things as heartbeat and the daily change from sleep to walking take place because of both external and internal signals.

A、decrease
B、diminish
C、decline
D、reduce

动词辨义 。根据语意推断这句话的意思是:对生物钟的了解能够减少在工作中突发的疾病和事故。可见,这里的“减少”是人为造成的疾病和事故数量上韵下降,reduce指人为地使某物在数量或重量方面的减少或降低,因此选择D项。
