答案 The Purpose of Science Contrary to popular opinion, / the purpose of science is neither to discover the ultimate "truth", / nor to offer its findings as absolute and final. / Scientific theories are always subject to modification / if new evidence becomes available. / Science, as we have said, / attempts to accumulate data based on the available evidence. / We have not been everywhere in the universe, / thus, in keeping with the principle of objectivity, / science must deal with probability, not certainty, / and thus cannot present its findings as the absolute and final truth.

解析     本文主要讨论了科学的目的。文中出现的难词主要有ultimate,modification,accumulate,principle。第一句中出现了固定搭配neither…nor…。第二句中的subject to为固定搭配,意为“使服从;使遭受”。第三句中,as we have said为插入语,前后都要加逗号。第四句较长,听写时注意句子间的逻辑关系。
