问题 Which of the following is true about Newton’s Principia?
The author bolds the view that the apple story is ______.

选项 A、fabricated
B、ridiculous
C、authentic
D、reasonable

答案D

解析末段第2句开头的but表明这一句才是作者对苹果落地的故事的看法，句中的plausibility表明作者认为这个故事合理，因此选项D为本题答案。从全文来看，只有末段表明作者倾向于相信这个故事，全文多次使用表明推测的词语，如would have been和might等，由此可见，这个故事是真是假，难以确定，因此不能选A或C；末段表明作者认为像苹果落地这样的小事可以揭示真理。由此可见，他并不会认为这个故事可笑，因此选项B不正确。
