参考答案:A进入在线模考
【定位】根据题干中的curiosity可定位到第4段。
【解析】考查对curiosity的理解。A项说好奇心赋予了科学工作信心和乐趣,这是对第4段最后一句的误读。原文中 improve the existing conditions和trying to solve the problems,相当于D项中look for new ways of acting,都是好奇心引发的.但工作信心和乐趣并不是由好奇心引发的结果,而是如同好奇心一样是他本身拥有的素质。
【点睛】细节判断题,此题可用排除法来做。从第4段最后两句中可分别找到对应于B、C、D的说法,因此都可排除,A是正确答案。
