问题     A study has been conducted on public opinion on the use of animals in research. Most—7 in 10—Swedes indicate that the use of animals in research is acceptable for medical research aimed at finding cures for diseases. Young people are most negative.
    The findings indicate that although most people spontaneously think of medical research when they hear the term "animal experiments", many respondents also associate it with makeup and hygiene products. 3 in 10 respondents believe that cosmetics are tested on animals in Sweden, even though this has been banned since 2004.
    Among the 30% of respondents who find animal experiments to be unacceptable in medical research aimed at finding cures for disease, nearly one third respond that some animal experiments could, nevertheless, be acceptable in certain situations.
    The survey shows that 7 in 10 Swedes can accept the use of animals in medical research if its aim is to acquire more knowledge about diseases and how they can be prevented and cured. This ratio is the same as that reported in a 1992 study, when attitudes of Swedes towards laboratory animals were last measured.
    Vetenskap & Allmaenhet(Public and Science)has conducted the study on behalf of the Swedish Research Council. The opinion survey describes how the public views the use of laboratory animals, both in general and in relation to medical objectives. A sample including just over 1000 individuals representing the national Swedish population aged 16 years and older was surveyed in January 2008. Some of the questions were given only to part of the group.
The study may most probably indicate that______ towards animal use in lab.
选项 A、young people’s attitudes have changed radically
B、the elderly’s attitudes differ most remarkably
C、people’s attitudes have remained unaltered
D、Swedes’ attitudes vary with the age
答案C
解析 第4段最后一句表明相隔十几年的两次调查的结果很相似，由此可以推断，瑞典人对动物实验的态度十几年来保持稳定，因此，本题应选C。原文只有在第1段提到了年轻受访者的看法，但没有将他们的看法做对比。因此A的比较没有原文依据；原文根本没有提到“老年人”的观点，B属于无中生有；原文也没有就各个年龄段的看法做比较，因此D不正确。
