    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

    　　It is hard to predict how science is going to turn out, and if it is really good science it is impossible to predict. If the things to be found are actually new, they are by difinition unknown in advance. You cannot make choices in this matter. You either have science or you don’t and if you have it you are obliged to accept the surprising and disturbing pieces of information, along with the neat and promptly useful bits.

    　　The only solid piece of scientific truth about which I feel totally confident is that we are profoundly ignorant about nature. Indeed, I regard this as the major discovery of the past hundred years of biology. It is, in its way, an illuminating piece of news. It would have amazed the brightest minds of the 18th century Enlightenment to be told by any of us how little we know and how bewildering seems the way ahead. It is this sudden confrontation with the depth and scope of ignorance that represents the most significant contribution of the 20th century science to the human intellect. In earlier times, we either pretended to understand how things Worked or ignored the problem, or simply made up stories to fill the gaps. Now that we have begun exploring in earnest, we are getting glimpses of how huge the questions are, and how far from being answered. Because of this, we are depressed. It is not so bad being ignorant if you are totally ignorant, the hard thing is knowing in some detail the reality of ignorance, the worst spots and here and there the not-so-had spots, but no true light at the end of the tunnel nor even any tunnels than can yet be trusted.

    　　But we are making a beginning, and there ought to be some satisfaction. There are probably no questions we can think up that can’ t be answered, sooner or later, including even the matter of consciousness. To be sure, there may well be questions we can’t think up, ever, and therefore limits to the reach of human intellect, but that is another matter. Within our limits, we should be able to work our way through to all our answers, if we keep at it long enough, and pay attention.

    1．According to the author, really good science ________.

    [　　]

    A．would surprise the brightest minds of the 18th century Enlightenment

    B．will produce results which cannot be foreseen

    C．will help people to make the right choice in advance

    D．will bring about disturbing results

    2．It can be inferred from the passage that scientists of the 18 th century ________.

    [　　]

    A．thoutht that they knew a great deal and could solve most problems of science

    B．were afraid of facing up to the realities of scientific research

    C．knew that they were ignorant and wanted to know more about nature

    D．did more harm than good in promoting man’ s understanding of nature

    3．What is the author’s attitude towards science?

    [　　]

    A．He is depressed because of the ignorance of scientists.

    B．He is doubtful because of the enormous difficulties in scientific research.

    C．He is confident though he is aware of the enormous difficulties in scientific research.

    D．He is delighted because of the illuminating scientific findings.

    4．The author believes that ________.

    [　　]

    A．man can find solutions sooner or later to whatever questions concerning nature he can think up

    B．man can not solve all the problems he can think up because of the limits of human intellect

    C．sooner or later man can think up all the questions concerning nature and answer them

    D．questions concerning consciousness are outside the scope of scientific research

         Treasure hunts (寻宝) have excited people's imagination for hundreds of years both in real life and
    in books such as Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. Kit Williams, a modern writer, had the idea
    of combining the real excitement of a treasure hunt with clues (线索) found in a book when he wrote a
    children's story, Masquerade, in 1979. The book was about a hare,and a month before it came out
    Williams buried a gold hare in a park in Bedfordshire. The book contained a large number of clues to help
    readers find the hare, but Williams put in a lot of "red herrings", or false clues, to mislead them.
         Ken Roberts, the man who found the hare, had been looking for it for nearly two years. Although he
    had been searching in the wrong area most of the time, he found it by logic (逻辑), not by luck.His
    success came from the fact that he had gained an important clue at the start. He had realized that the
    words: "One of Six to Eight" under the first picture in the book connected the hare in some way to
    Katherine of Aragon, the first of Henry VIII's six wives. Even here, however,Williams had succeeded in
    misleading him. Ken knew that Katherine of Aragon had died at Kimbolton in Cambridgeshire in 1536 and
    thought that Williams had buried the hare there. He had been digging there for over a year before a new
    idea occurred to him.He found out that Kit Williams had spent his childhood near Ampthill, in Befordshire,
    and thought that he must have buried the hare in a place he knew well, but he still could not see the
    connection with Katherine of Aragon,until one day he came across two stone crosses in Ampthill Park
    and learnt that they had been built in her honor in 1773.
         Even then his search had not come to an end. It was only after he had spent several nights digging
    around the cross that he decided to write to Kit Williams to find out if he was wasting his time there.
    Williams encouraged him continue, and on February 24 th 1982, he found the treasure. It was worth
    ￡3000 in the beginning, but the excitement it had caused since its burial made it much more valuable.

    A. red herrings
