Generally scientists enter their field with the goal of doing important new research and accept as their colleagues those with similar motivation.Therefore, when any scientist wins renown as an expounder of science to general audiences, most other scientists conclude that this popularizer should no longer be regarded as a true colleague.
The explanation offered above for the low esteem in which scientific popularizers are held by research scientists assumes that
Generally scientists enter their field with the goal of doing important new research and accept as their colleagues those with similar motivation. Therefore, when any scientist wins renown as an expounder of science to general audiences, most other scientists conclude that this popularizer should no longer be regarded as a true colleague.
The explanation offered above for the low esteem in which scientific popularizers are held by research scientists assumes that
(A) serious scientific research is not a solitary activity, but relies on active cooperation among a group of colleagues (B) research scientists tend not to regard as colleagues those scientists whose renown they envy (C) a scientist can become a famous popularizer without having completed any important research (D) research scientists believe that those who are well known as popularizers of science are not motivated to do important new research (E) no important new research can be accessible to or accurately assessed by those who are not themselves scientists
原文:通常来说,科学家进入他们的领域时,目的是去做important new research;而且他们也认为自己的同僚(their colleague)有着类似的动机。但是,当有些科学家由于向普通大众解释了科学后享有盛名,其他科学家就认为这帮出了名的科学家不再是自己的true colleague了。
这道题是linke the gap
colleague --> doing important research.
scientist wins renown --> not a true colleague
链接gap:
Not a true colleague --> not doing important research. 答案D
原文讲的是true colleague和doing important research之间的关系,和是不是科学家没有关系啊。E属于无关选项。
