If you are like most people,your intelligence varies from season to season．You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year．A noted scientist,Ellsworth Huntington(1876-1947),concluded from other men's work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.

问答题Why does the author dwell upon the concept of science in this article?正确答案： He wants to make the concept clear so that people can have the right education.解析：
态度题。作者在文中给出了科学的真正定义，并对此进行了充分的论证，驳斥了很多人对于科学的含混概念。但作者的最终意图并不是要明确科学的概念，他在文中一再提到教育问题，就是不希望错误的科学概念导致教育方向的偏差，故答案为D项。选项A、B、C都不是作者的主要意图，皆可排除。 -
第10题：
单选题Why does the author say at the beginning “The miserable fate of Enron’s employees will be a landmark in business history…”?ABecause the company has gone bankrupt.
BBecause such events would never happen again.
CBecause many Enron workers lost their retirement savings.
DBecause it signifies a turning point in economic security.
正确答案： D解析：
推断题。既然题干中提到“Enron职工的悲惨命运将是商业史上标志性的事件”，可见此事对整个商界产生了巨大的影响。公司的破产或员工失去退休积蓄并不会对整个商界产生影响，而是其产生的影响构成了标志性事件，排除A、C项。文中并未提及这种事情将不再发生，B项说法过于绝对，故排除。从文章第二段可知，20世纪的一个audacious promise就是经济安全：政府的福利制度、劳工组织的保障、以及大企业财团的产生，让职工们普遍认为他们的工作是终身的，并且退休后肯定也有退休金。然而，从第三段开始，作者指出了这个保险体系的decline，以及由此引发的一系列政府、企业等政策的改变，进而最终导致的职工们一无所有的惨状。因此可以说这次事件体现了经济安全方面的转变。故D项符合。 -

BThey took a multifaceted approach.
CThe results of the original research did not make sense.
DHarvard had a good reputation in conducting research.
正确答案： A解析：
本题是推断题。第一段最后两句提到：当Elton Mayo and Fritz Roethlisberger这两个来自哈佛的研究人员参与进来进一步研究这些没有预料的结果时，他们发现了这一试验的重要部分，即工人们对照明水平没有什么反应，却对被实施研究者的观察产生很大的反应。这个发现推翻了原有的“照明是最重要的”的假设，而带来了后面所说的“霍桑效应”这个新发现，所以作者认为这两个人的参与使得这一研究进行了多方面研究，而不是局限在原来设想的照明、温度、湿度等方面；因此B为答案。 -
