參考答案【正確答案:C】
本題所問的問題是作者對科學(xué)持何種態(tài)度?作者在文章的最后一段的前兩句指出:But we are making a beginning, and there ought to be some satisfaction. There are probably no questions we can think up can’t be answered, sooner or later…在最后一句再次指出Within our limits, we should be able to work our way through to all our answers, if we keep at it long enough, and pay attention. 因此,可以推斷出選項(xiàng)C是答案。本文未提及A、B和D項(xiàng),故這3個選項(xiàng)是錯的。
