　　People born in the winter are more likely to suffer mental health disorders, according to a recent study carried out by researchers at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee.

　　Researchers raised baby mice from birth to weaning（断奶） in either “summer” light cycles of 16 hours of light and eight hours of dark or “winter” cycles of eight hours of light and 16 hours of dark. A third group experienced 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark a day,

　　Then half the winter mice stayed in a winter cycle, while half switched to a summer schedule. The summer mice were similarly split. The mice raised in equal periods of light and dark were split into three groups, one of which stayed on the 12-hour schedule, one of which joined the winter group, and one of which joined the summer subset.

　　After 28 days, it turns out the summer-born mice behaved the same whether they stayed on the summer cycle or switched to winter. But among the winter-born mice, those stayed in winter kept their previous schedule, while those that switched to summer stayed active for an extra hour and a half, which indicates that mice born and weaned in a winter light cycle showed dramatic disruptions in their biological clocks.

　　The finding is the first of its kind in mammals, and it could explain why people born in the winter are at higher risk for mental health disorders including bipolar depression, schizophrenia and seasonal affective disorder.

　　“We know that the biological clock regulates mood in humans,” said study researcher McMahon. “If an imprinting mechanism（运行机制）similar to the one that we found in mice operates in humans, then it could not only have an effect on a number of behavioral disorders, but also have a more general effect on personality.”

　　41. How many groups of mice are there finally in all in the experiment?

　　A. four

　　B. five

　　C. six

　　42. What's the main idea of the text?

　　A. The biological clock regulates mood in humans.

　　B. people born in the winter are at higher risk for physical health disorders.

　　C. Being born in the winter has a negative effect on people's mental health.

　　D. The length of light will influence the behavior of the mice.

　　43. The underlined word "split" can be replaced by

　　? （Line 2, Paragraph3）

　　A. divided

　　B. torn

　　C. hit

　　D. ended

　　44. Which group of mice has changed their behavior after the experiment?

　　A. The group born in the winter and staying in the winter.

　　B. The group born in the winter and switching to the summer.

　　C. The group born in the summer and staying in the summer.

　　February 4, 2024 saw the take-off of a new rising NBA star- Jeremy Lin.

　　Among professional basketball players, Jeremy Lin’s background is not typical. He graduated from Harvard University, which sends few players to the NBA, and he is the only Chinese-American NBA player. But when you watch him on the court, there is no doubt that he belongs there. He moves with speed and grace that demonstrate years of faithful practice, which is fueled by a love for basketball.

　　Lin’s enjoyment to basketball actually began in Taiwan. When Lin’s father moved to U.S., his interest in the sport only grew and he passed on this love of basketball to his son, introducing him to the game at the age of five. The young Lin spent much of his youth playing basketball for fun.

　　In high school, Lin dreamed of playing in the NBA. When he applied for college, he was not offered a single sports scholarship. However, after his admission to Harvard ,he was offered a place on its college basketball team.

　　During Lin’s time at Harvard, his basketball career began to speed up. He scored 1,482 points, making him one of the highest scorers in Ivy League history.

　　When he graduated, no professional teams offered Lin a contract, but he was invited to play in the NBA Summer League. He played well and ended up eagerly signing a contract with the Golden State Warriors.

　　At first, playing in professional games filled Lin with excitement. He treasured opportunities to meet players he had been watching on TV for years. But slowly, the excitement wore off and was replaced by anxiety. In a few very difficult months, he was cut by two teams before the New York Knicks picked him up.

　　But he had the courage and determination to stick to his dream, so he put himself into hard training to get ready for his opportunity to come, Then his moment arrived on February4, 2024,on which his excellent performance made him famous overnight.Aftet that,he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory.

　　The Associated Press called Lin “the most surprising story in the NBA.” Knicks fans developed the nickname for him “linsanity”（林发疯）.Time magazine released its 2024 list of the 100“Most Influential People in the World”, Jermy Lin included.

　　46. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?
