You’ve probably seen encyclopedias. Whether you’re settling an argument or researching a school project, these books can hold the answers. These days though, the world moves so fast, it’s hard for books that were written months or years ago to keep up. Thankfully we have a new kind of encyclopedia that’s online, free, built by thousands of people and changes every day. This household name is: Wikipedia
    The idea that thousands of volunteers could create an online encyclopedia doesn’t sound possible, but thanks to new technology and specific policies, Wikipedia has become one of the top 5 sites on the Web. [16] The site is run by a not-for-profit foundation with a goal to provide everyone on the planet access to the sum of all human knowledge. To see how it works, let’s get started with the "wiki" in Wikipedia.
    [17] A wild is a kind of website that allows users to make changes to any page. They simply click, edit, make the change, and then save the page to share it with the world. This basic concept allows volunteers to contribute information on any subject in Wikipedia. And because Wikipedia is a website, there is no limit to the number of topics it can cover. Being a wiki means that Wikipedia is always changing. When someone notable passes away, Wikipedia is updated. When news breaks, Wikipedia grows. It all works because tens of thousands of volunteers contribute, and also enforce rules to ensure Wikipedia remains a reliable source for factual information.
    These users, like any member, can see changes as they happen on each article. [18] For example, if someone posts an advertisement on Wikipedia. which is forbidden, volunteers can easily reverse the change to maintain the article’s integrity. This means every change to Wikipedia is reviewed and must observe two big rules.
    The first is verifiability, which is necessary to ensure high quality. For this reason, Wikipedia articles must rely on information from published sources like books or newspapers—resources known for fact-checking. Requiring contributors to cite these resources in articles and quotations ensures Wikipedia articles are factual and high quality. If it’s not verified, it can’t be in Wikipedia.
    [19] The second rule requires a neutral point of view. All Wikipedia materials must be presented fairly and without bias, just like any other encyclopedia. This means Wikipedia is not a place for contributors to share their own opinions.
    It’s these two rules and the volunteers who uphold them that make Wikipedia a reliable resource that grows each day. And you can be involved in the process of building a free encyclopedia—the largest encyclopedia in human history.
    16. What can we learn about Wikipedia from the talk?
    17. What can users do in a wild?
    18. What will probably happen when an advertisement is posted on Wikipedia?
    19. What is the second rule of Wikipedia?

选项 A、All contributors must share their own opinions.
B、The materials should be like those of other encyclopedias.
C、All materials presented on Wikipedia must be neutral.
D、Users must build Wikipedia into the largest encyclopedia.

答案C

解析 录音靠后部分提到,第二个规则是保持中立(a neutral point of view)。所有维基条目必须像其他百科全书一样保持中立态度,因此C项“所有呈现在维基百科的材料都必须是中立的”为正确答案。录音提到,维基百科不允许贡献者发表个人的观点。因此A项“所有贡献者必须发表他们自己的观点”与录音原文相矛盾。录音中说的是所有维基条目必须像其他百科全书一样保持中立态度,B项“材料应该和所有其他百科全书一样”曲解文意。D项“贡献者必须把维基百科建成最大的百科全书”利用了录音的最后一句“维基百科是人类历史上最大的百科全书”来设置干扰项,这并非问题问的第二条规则。
