43. With the emergence of biotechnology companies, it was feared that they would impose silence about proprietary results on their in–house researchers and their academic consultants. This constraint, in turn, would slow the development of biological science and engineering. Which of the following, if true, would tend to weaken most seriously the prediction of scientific secrecy described above? A. Biotechnological research funded by industry has reached some conclusions that are of major scientific importance. B. When the results of scientific research are kept secret, independent researchers are unable to build on those results. C. Since the research priorities of biotechnology companies are not the same as those of academic institutions, the financial support of research by such companies distorts the research agenda. D. To enhance the companies’ standing in the scientific community, the biotechnology companies encourage employees to publish their results, especially results that are important. E. Biotechnology companies devote some of their research resources to problems that are of fundamental scientific importance and that are not expected to produce immediate practical applications.
43. D weakens the prediction of secrecy by establishing that biotechnology companies have a strong motive to encourage their researchers to publicize results. Therefore, it is the best answer. A and B support the argument that developments in biological science and engineering would be slowed if the prediction of secrecy were fulfilled, but do not provide any reason to expect that the prediction will not be fulfilled. The distortion of the research agenda asserted in C is not relevant to the question of scientific secrecy. E, which says that biotechnology companies devote some resources to fundamental problems without immediate practical benefits, is merely consistent with that argument and so does not weaken the prediction.
我认为Ａ是无关选项，怎么ＯＧ给的解释是支持了？
哦，对对对．怎么一下子没转过弯来．
谢谢！
现在有两个问题：1，因为这是虚拟，所以直接推翻这种推测是么？
2，A为什么是support呢？“由工业拨款的b的研究已经得到了结论，那些结论有很重要的价值”，这跟结论的“减缓发展”不是反的么？
谢谢

Need weaken.
A: to publish a result is feared. B constrain the development of science.
A->B.
To weaken, Not A or has a C.
Choice D is to express company encourge the employee to publish their result.
Regarding choice A, if the result is important, it would affact the development of science, obviously to support the conclution.
