: 答案是給B,可是原文我的解讀是 factors 會造成巨大影響
: 他的答案有個despite,所以是不會造成影響
: 所以到底是我理解錯誤 還是答案給錯了
: 請大大幫我解惑!!!

（B）中所寫的period does not change對應原句的stability of…period,
（B）中寫despite significant changes對應原句的even when…considerable
changes.（B）所述的…period does not change despite significant changes
in the environment.意為「縱然即使環境有很大的變化，生物時鐘並沒有改變」，
原句所述的…stability of…period…,even when…considerable changes.
意為「即使當環境有很大的變化，生物時鐘還是穩定不變」。
