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.

答案：A

思路：作者说no必要有一个新的出版confirmation系统，因为Poor scientific work is not harmful，other scientists
conduct experiments来正明正确的结果。A指出Scientific
experiments can go unchallenged for many years，指出Poor scientific
work is harmful，是weaken。
