标题: feifei 73

73. There is no reason why the work of scientists has to be officially confirmed before being published. There is a system in place for the confirmation or disconfirmation of scientific findings, namely, the replication of results by other scientists. Poor scientific work on the part of any one scientists, which can include anything from careless reporting practices to fraud, is not harmful. It will be
exposed and rendered harmless when other scientists conduct experiments and obtain disconfirmatory results.



Which one of the following, if true, would weaken the argument?



A. Scientific experiments can go unchallenged for many years before they are replicated.

B. Most scientists work in universities, where their work is submitted to peer review before publication.

C. Most scientists are under pressure to make their work accessible to the scrutiny of replication.

D. In scientific experiments, careless reporting is more common than fraud.

E. Most scientists work as part of a team rather than alone.

选A,基本意思都明白,但是这句话读不明白It will beexposed and rendered harmless when other scientists conduct experiments and obtain disconfirmatory results.
看别的解释说意思是,当其他科学家之后做这个实验的时候它会检查到
但不是说render harmless, harmless了怎么会是disconfirmatory,应该是confirmatory呀。。纠结了

It will beexposed and (will be )rendered harmless (to the latter scientists) when other scientists conduct experiments and obtain disconfirmatory results.
个人理解 参考吧

意思说:如果其他科学家做实验,发现了不一样的结果,那么原来科学家的结果中的问题就会被暴露,然后被后面的科学家根据新的结果加以更正,然后就对了。
