问题     The normal human daily cycle of activity is of some 7-8 hours’ sleep alternation(交替) with some 16-17 hours’ wakefulness and that the sleep normally coincides 【C1】______ the hours of darkness. Our present 【C2】______ is with how easily and to what extent this 【C3】______ can be modified.

This means that no sooner has he got used to one routine 【C12】______ he has to change to another, 【C13】______ much of his time is spent neither working nor sleeping very 【C14】______ .

选项 A、only
B、sole
C、mere
D、unique
答案 C
解析 考查词汇辨析。only表示“唯一的”，如：the only child(独生子/女)：sole意为“惟一的”或“单独的，不与人分享的”，如：her sole ownership of the house(她独自享有那所房子的产权)；mere意为“仅仅”，用来强调“程度上的少/轻”：unique意为“独特的，与众不同的”。本句意为：这不仅仅是个学术问题。
