    正确答案：A
    作者态度题。根据对整篇文章的分析，特别是文章最后一段，我们可以看出，作者对比尔·盖茨和玛琳达及其基金会的评价很高，因此．选项A最贴近题意，为正确答案。
    参考译文：
    比尔·玛琳达基金会可以算是历史上最具创新意识、最成功的基金会。现在一共有270亿的慈善基金。
    几年前，比尔·盖茨和他的妻子玛琳达就开始思索他们如何才能帮助大部分人，然后就开始着手把更多的资金投在慈善事业上。一开始，他们就达成协议说他们的钱不是为了得到世人的认可和褒扬而投资的；更不会区分受助者的种族、肤色和宗教信仰。相反，是为了世界各地那些亟待帮助的人们。事实上在大多数情况下，是那些关乎生存的需要。不久，他们将这些想法变成了现实：开始关注全球健康和教育。1999年，基金会兑现了最大的慈善诺言之一：将7亿5千万资金用于购买儿童疫苗。
    此后他们的投入不仅仅是金钱。他们把自己的聪明才智和精力也投资到了慈善事业上。比尔开始大量接触医疗知识。他每年都要翻阅大量医疗资料以便学习如何对付世界上出现的最危险的疾病。在与他的接触中，我曾多次听他谈到这方面的知识，而且每次都为他知识的深度而折服。玛琳达则周游世界各地去了解从西雅图出去的每一分钱是否都用在了实处。
    她坚信“好人有好报”。无论是比尔辽是玛琳达，他们都全身心地投入到这种令人难以置信的棘手的工作当中。他们的智慧在那些大型慈善机构中是罕见的。哪里有需要哪里就有他们及时的帮助。
    在对人类福利争业所做的页献上，他们是让我最敬佩的人物。

    C

    The first passage lists the studies that showed positive chimp interactions, while the author of Passage 2 refutes their claims,

    The first passage suggests that science can have a positive impact on perceptions about chimps, whereas the second passage views science as almost universally negative.

    C

    stubborn

    D

    正确答案： A
    解析：
    推理题。本题为反选题。原文第四段的前两句话说到：So we enjoyed Mrs. Orr’s cake with white icing twice a year. Nothing fancy, nothing pretentious—just like Dad.可见，作者将父亲比作朴实无华的蛋糕，说明了父亲务实的性格，故B选项的说法正确，可排除。原文第三、五两段的段末，均出现了silly question一词，来表明作者觉得句没自己必要提出前面的问题，同时也说明了父亲固执不愿意改变的性格，故C选项的说法正确，可排除。原文第五段第一句话中的generous一词说明父亲慷慨大方性格，故D选项的说法也是正确的，也可排除。而A选项“苛求的”在原文中并没有体现，因此本题正确答案为A。
