问题 Text 3 If you're tired of swiping left and right to approve or reject the faces of other people,try something else:rating scientific papers.A web application inspired by the dating app Tinder lets you make snap judgments about preprints-papers published online before peer review-simply by swiping left,right,up,or down.Papr brands itself as"Tinder for preprints"and is almost as superficial as the matchmaker.For now,you only get to see abstracts,not the full papers,and you have to rate them in one of four categories:"exciting and probable,""exciting and questionable,""boring and probable,"or"boring and questionable."Papr co-creator Jeff Leek,a biostatistician at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health,released an earlier version of Papr late last year but only started publicizing the app on social media earlier this month after his colleagues added a few more features,including a recommendation engine that suggests studies based on your preferences,an option to download your ratings along with links to the full preprints on bioRxiv,and suggestions for Twitter users with similar tastes as yours.What we want is to help researchers navigate the overwhelming number ofnew papers and uncover interdisciplinary overlap,Leek says.Scientists already use social media to discover new papers,he says;Papr aims to simplify that process and capture people's evaluations along the way.Four rating categories is enough,Leek says;other services,including PubPeer,offer space for longer comments and discussions.To prevent readers from giving their rivals'papers bad ratings or rate a paper as interesting just because it was written by a famous scientist,Papr doesn't show author names and doesn't let you search for a specific preprint or author."For me,the importance of Papr is illustrating that preprint services like bioRxiv enable novel methods of evaluation to emerge,"says Brian Nosek,executive director of the Center for Open Science in Charlottesville,Virginia."We don't believe that the data we are collecting is any kind of realistic peer review,but it does tell us something about the types of papers people find interesting and what leads them to be suspicious,"Leek says."Ultimately we hope to correlate this data with information about where the papers are published and other more in-depth measurements of paper quality."But don't take Papr too seriously,because its developers don't."This app is provided solely for entertainment of the scient讯c community and may be taken down at any time with no notice because Jeff gets tired ofit,"the Papr website says.33.According to Paragraph 5,a potential weakness of paper rating exists inA.judging a paper by fame ofits author.B.possible too long comments and discussions.C.neglecting rival's paper.D.preventing users from seeing authors'names.

选项 A.judging a paper by fame ofits author.
B.possible too long comments and discussions.
C.neglecting rival's paper.
D.preventing users from seeing authors'names.

答案 A

解析事实细节题。文章第五段第二句提到“为了防止读者给竞争对手差评，或是仅仅因为一篇论文是由一位著名科学家撰写而给予好评．Papr隐去了作者姓名，也不让读者搜索特定的预出版论文或作者”，可以推知论文评价中存在以作者名声来批判论文好坏的问题，故选A项。【干扰排除】B项文中并未提及，属于无中生有，故排除；C项，文中没有提到忽视竞争对手的论文，故排除；D项，文中说第五段第二句提到“Papr隐去了作者姓名，也不让读者搜索特定预出版论文或作者”，只是说不让读者搜索特定作者，为的是防止读者给予作者差评或好评，可以推断论文评价的一个潜在问题是通过作者名声来评判论文，并不是想阻止用户看到作者姓名，故排除。
