THANK FOR YOUR PATIENCE!!
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 scientfic 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 compnies encourage employees to publish their results, especially results that are important.
(E)Biotechnology companies devote some of their research resourced to problems that are of fundamental scientific importance and that are not expected to produce immediate practical applications.
答案是D.没什么疑问
但og关于E的解释另我奇怪: choice 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.
疑惑: 我觉得EC一样是irrelevant, E怎么会consistent with that argument 呢??和题目中哪一层意思致呢???
