问题 The following questions present a sentence, part of which or all of which is underlined. Beneath the sentence, you will find five ways of phrasing the underlined part. The first of these repeats the original; the other four are different. If you think the original is best, choose the first answer; otherwise choose one of the others.
   These questions test correctness and effectiveness of expression. In choosing your answer, follow the requirements of standard written English; that is, pay attention to grammar, choice of words, and sentence construction. Choose the answer that produces the most effective sentence; this answer should be clear and exact, without awkwardness, ambiguity, redundancy, or grammatical error.
In his groundbreaking work on special relativity, Albert Einstein displayed an intellectual boldness in the face of a reluctant scientific establishment that was not unlike that of Galileo Galilei, who refused to accept the intellectual limits placed on him by the censors of the Church.

选项 A、not unlike that of Galileo Galilei, who refused
B、like Galileo Galilei and his refusal
C、not unlike Galileo Galilei, who refused
D、like that of Galileo Galilei for refusing
E、as that of Galileo Galilei, who refused

答案A

解析 B and C are incorrect because they erroneously compare Galileo Galilei to Albert Einstein’s intellectual boldness. D fails to make clear whether Albert Einstein or Galileo is doing the refusing. E is incorrect because "like" rather than "as" should be used to compare two noun phrases. A is the best answer.
