问题     But the success of science, both its intellectual excitement and its practical application, depends upon the self - correcting character of science. There must be a way of testing any valid idea. It must be possible to reproduce any valid experiment. The character or beliefs of scientists are irrelevant; all that matters is whether the evidence supports their contention. Arguments from authority simply do not count; too many authorities have been mistaken too often. I would like to see these very effective scientific modes of thought communicated by the schools and media; and it would certainly be astonishment and delight to see them introduced into politics. Scientists have been known to change their minds completely and publicly when presented with new evidence or new arguments. I cannot recall the last time a politician displayed a similar openness and willingness to change.
In the eyes of the author________.
选项 A、scientists always respect facts
B、politicians are as open and willing to change their minds as scientists
C、it is quite easy to see scientific manners in a politician
D、both scientists and politicians are changeable and flexible
答案A
解析 这是一道有关观点态度的题型，即要求考生推测作者的观点或态度。文章的最后两句话“Scientists have been known to change their minds completely and publicly when presented with new evidence or new arguments．I cannot recall the last time a politician displayed a similar openness and willingness to change．”表明了作者的观点：在新的证据或新的论证出现时，科学家们会彻底、公开地改变他们的思想观点，可我记不得上次政客有类似改变观点的时候。这意思也就是说：作者认为科学家们以事实为依据，一旦出错会勇于承认，而政客们往往不愿意承认自己的错误。选项B“政客和科学家一样，都愿意改变自己的思想观点”不符合文义。选项C“很容易在政客身上看到科学态度”和选项D“科学家和政客都是灵活善变的”都不能反应作者真实的观点。
