问题 What is the attitude of the author towards the two scientists?
What does the word "margin" refer to in the last sentence of Paragraph 4?

选项 A、The difference in the number of votes or points.
B、The agreements of opinions.
C、The empty space at the side of a page.
D、The inclination of the scientists’ favorite.

答案A

解析 此题问“第四段最后一句话中margin一词是什么意思?”从第四段可知牛顿仅以0.2%的微弱优势险胜爱因斯坦,而在科学家投票中,两位科学家的差距就大多了:60.9%选择牛顿,39.1%选择爱因斯坦。因此margin应指的是“差别”,即投票百分比的差额,故[A]“投票、分值等的差额”正确。[B]“观点意见的一致”。与margin的本意无关。[C]“纸的空白边缘”。虽然margin含有这个意思,但不符合上下文的意义。[D]“科学农偏爱的倾向”。科学家们对两位科学家有偏爱倾向的差异,是以投票数值表现出来,比较的是数据的不同和差异。故[D]也不正确。
