问题 Much of the best scientific research of today shows that many of the results of earlier scientific work that was regarded in its time as good are in fact mistaken. Yet despite the fact that scientists are above all concerned to discover the truth, it is valuable for today’s scientists to study firsthand accounts of earlier scientific work. Which one of the following, if true, would best reconcile the two statements above?
选项 A、Many firsthand accounts of earlier, flawed scientific work are not generally known to be mistaken.
B、Lessons in scientific methodology can be learned by seeing how earlier scientific work was carried out, sometimes especially when the results of that work are known to be incorrect.
C、Scientists can make valuable contributions to the scientific work of their time even if the results of their work will later be shown to be mistaken.
D、There are many scientists today who are not thoroughly familiar with earlier scientific research.
E、Some of the better scientific research of today does not directly address earlier scientific work.
答案B
解析 对可能有误的甚至已经知道有误的科研报道的研究，可以发现为什么以前的研究工作中会出现那样的错误，通过借鉴这些错误，吸收前人成功的经验和失败的教训，一个人将在以后发现真理的探索中少走很多弯路，因此参考早些时候的科研工作仍是一件非常有意义的事情，由此可知(B)是正确的，其余四个选项很明显都不能解释段落中的明显分歧。
