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.
B. Most scientists work in universities, where their work is submitted to peer review before publication. 在哪里工作没提到 C. Most scientists are under pressure to make their work accessible to the scrutiny of replication. 是否有压力没提到 D. In scientific experiments, careless reporting is more common than fraud. careless和fraud文中是并列的，不需要比较 E. Most scientists work as part of a team rather than alone.
我觉得这个题目（我想了很久），有两个假设：1，差的研究都是因为抄袭和错误报告 2。那些抄袭的和差的研究都是一个科学家的研究（on the part of one scientists) 所以weaken的话就结局这个假设。E说大多数研究都是研究组的不是一个人的，那么有可能有人拿了别人的成果去报告，那就不算抄袭前人而是窃取别人革命成果了，就是解决了假设。
