What can we loam from the approach to scientific research in other cultures? Consider British science. In the 1980s to mid-1990s, the United Kingdom consistently 【C1】______ many more populous countries in 【C2】______ number of papers produced and citations received per paper in science, medicine, and engineering. During the 20th century, the United Kingdom 【C3】______ more major international scientific prizes per capita than any other nation--about 10% of all such 【C4】______ .
Many explanations have been 【C5】______ for this success. Some British attribute it 【C6】______ a superiority of intellect and 【C7】______ . Yet British scientists are a more 【C8】______ group than American scientists, 【C9】______ selective pressure throughout secondary and undergraduate education. My experience in the United Kingdom leads me to think that another significant reason for this 【C10】______ is the British style of scientific investigation. I must 【C11】______ that at first I was frustrated by the slower 【C12】______ of research in the United Kingdom in 【C13】______ with that in the United States. Having recently completed my doctoral research in the 【C14】______ envi-ronment 【C15】______ of many U. S. universities, I thought that the greater relative emphasis that the British 【C16】______ on thinking 【C17】______ doing was at best misguided, and at worst, lazy. 【C18】______ , I soon saw the advantages of being more selective about which problems to work on, which experiments to 【C19】______ , and which approach would best 【C20】______ the results. [br] 【C17】
选项
A、as well as
B、rather than
C、other than
D、except for
答案
B
解析
语篇题。文章最后一句讲了英国人花时间选题,花时间思考哪些实验该做以及如何解释结果,因此,英国人强调思考而不是做事情的过程,选择rather than。rather than意为“是……而不是……”,如:He is a student rather than a teacher.(他是学生而不是老师;other than意为“除了,不同于”,如:The truth was known to no one other than herself. 除了她自己,没有人知道真相;except for也表示“除了”,如:All went to the concert except for her.除了她之外,所有的人都去听音乐会了。此句整个句子的意思是:我本来觉得英国人强调想而不是做,这一点说好听了,是说明英国人被误导了;说难听点,就是说明英国人懒。
