39、es the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions.”看出。3C细节推理题。比较 carpenter，everyone 与 scientist 对待工具和信息的不同，进一步说明scientist 的独到之处。句中的 “however，goes one step further.” 可以看出这种对比。4A细节理解题。可以从第二段第四句“What works under one set of conditions at one time must work u
40、nder the same conditions at other times.”看出。5D主旨大意题。文章的第一段阐述了科学家如何使用工具和利用信息，第二段阐述了知识的准确性对科学家的重要性。D项正好符合。A项表述不够准确，没有抓住文章的意图。B项只提到了文章的一个信息而已。C项只能够表示第二段的大意，不能涵盖全文的意思。佳句有约看看成功人士是怎么看待成功的吧！Genius only means hardworking all ones life.
