问题     The physicist investigating the relationship between time and space, the chemist exploring the properties of a new substance , the biologist probing the mysteries of the continuity of life, and the anthropologist (人类学家) searching for human origins share a common trait , curiosity. Not that non-scientists are not curious; most people possess this characteristic. The scientist, however, uses a specific method to make researches into these enigmatic problems—the scientific method.
    Unfortunately, science and its method are misunderstood. The multiplication of our knowledge in medicine and technology has led to the idea that science can cure all and explain all and that only enough time, money and intelligence are needed. In truth, science cannot provide all answers. In fact, many phenomena are not even subject to scientific explanations.
    On the other side of the coin, science has been attacked as a cause of most contemporary problems. It is said to be responsible for the depersonalization (使失去个性) of the individual, for stripping (夺去) creativity from human behavior, and for creating massive threats to the species through the development of nuclear power, insecticides, and polluting machinery. If we analyze the situation we can see that it was not the original intent of the people who developed computers to debase humankind, nor was mass production proposed as a method to crush creativity. It is what society, policymakers especially, does with scientific achievements that makes them social or antisocial. There is nothing inherently good or bad about science.
According to the last paragraph, which of the following will be accepted by the author?
选项 A、Science is the cause of modern problems.
B、Science itself is neither good nor bad.
C、Science leads to environmental pollution.
D、Science causes many antisocial acts.
答案B
解析 根据文章最后一句话“It is what society，policymakers especially，does with scientific achievements that makes them social or antisocial．There is nothing inherently good or bad about science”，可知B为正确答案。
