问题 We live in a society where there is a lot of talk about science, but I would say that there are not 5 percent of the people who are equipped with school, including college, to understand scientific【C1】______. We are more ignorant of science than people with【C2】______education in Western Europe.
There are a lot of kids who know everything about computers—how to build them, how to take them【C3】______, and how to write programs for games. But if you ask them to explain the principles of physics that have gone into【C4】______ the computer, they don’t have the【C5】______idea. The failure to understand science leads to such things as the neglect of human creative power. It also gives rise to the【C6】______of the distinction between science and technology. Lots of people don’t【C7】______between the two. Science is the production of new knowledge that can be applied or not, and technology is the application of knowledge to the production of some products, machinery or the like. The two are really different, and people who have the faculty of one very【C8】______have that for the other. Science in itself is【C9】______, more or less. But as soon as it can provide technology, it’s not【C10】______harmless. No society has yet learned to forecast the consequences of new technology, which can be enormous. And, therefore, nobody can give a definite answer to the question whether science itself is safe.
A. reasoning B. seldom C. comparable D. differ
E. distinguish F. creating G. generally H. apart
I. faintest J. blurring K. harmless L. necessarily
M. tell N. down O. missing [br] 【C6】
选项
答案 J
解析 blurring，上下文题。根据词性，此处应当填入名词。在解读过程中，此题可以先搁置，先做下题，可得知人们没有把科学与技术两者区分开来，因此此处可以填入blurring，blur the distinction表示“模糊两者的区别”。
