The physicist investigating the relationship between time and space, the chemist exploring the properties of a new substance, the biologist probing the mysteries of the continuity of life, and the anthropologist searching for human origins share a common trait of curiosity. Not that non-scientists are not curious, most people possess this characteristic. The scientist, however, uses a specific method to make research into these enigmatic (如谜的, 难以理解的) problems— the scientific method.
Unfortunately, science and its method are misunderstood. The multiplication of our knowledge in medicine and technology has led to the idea that science can cure all and explain all and that only enough time, money and intelligence are needed. In truth, science cannot provide all answers. In fact, many phenomena are not even subject to scientific explanations.
On the other side of the coin, science has been attacked as a cause of most contemporary problems. It is said to be responsible for the depersonalization (人格解体,人性丧失) of the individual, for stripping creativity from human behavior, and for creating massive threats to the species through the development of nuclear power, insecticides, and polluting machinery. If we analyze the situation, we can see that it was not the original intent of the people who developed computers to debase humankind, nor was mass production proposed as a method to crush creativity. It is what society, policymakers especially, does with scientific achievements that makes them social or antisocial. There is nothing inherently good or bad about science.
Which of the following statements is closest in meaning with the last sentence of Para. 2?
选项
A、Many phenomena can be subjects of scientific explanations.
B、Many phenomena can find answers in scientific explanations.
C、Scientific explanations cannot provide answers to many phenomena.
D、Scientific explanations are not related to many phenomena.
答案
C
解析
本题是一道句子含义类问题。问下面哪个选项与第二段的最后一句话意思最接近。文章第二段指出,不幸的是,科学及其方法经常被误解。我们在医学及科技方面的知识的增加使我们认为,科学也可以医治百病、解释万象,只要有足够的时间、金钱和智慧。但实际上科学并不能提供所有的答案。事实上,许多现象不可能利用科学加以解释。因此,本题的正确答案应是C。
