Science and Truth "FINAGLE" （欺骗) is not a word that most people associate with science.

Science and Truth

"FINAGLE" (欺骗) is not a word that most people associate with science. One reason is that the image of the scientist is of one who always(51) data in an impartial (不偏不倚的) search for truth~ In any debate --(52) intelligence, schooling, energy -- the phrase "science says" usually disarms opposition.

But scientists have long acknowledged the existence of a "finagle factor" -- a tendency by many scientists to give a helpful change to the data to(53)desired results. The latest of the finagle factor in action comes from Stephen Jay Gould, a Harvard biologist, who has(54) the important 19th century work of Dr. Samuel George Morton. Morton was famous in his time for analysing the brain(55) of the skulls as a measure of intelligence. He concluded that whites had the largest brains, that the brains of Indians and blacks were smaller, and(56) , that whites constitute a superior race.

Gould went back to Morton's original data and concluded that the(57)were an example of the finagle at work. He found that Morton's "discovery" was made by leaving out embarrassing data,(58) incorrect procedures, and changing his criteria -- again, always in favour of his argument. Morton has been thoroughly discredited by now and scientists do not believe that brain size reflects(59) .

But Gould went on to say Morton's story is only an example of a common problem in(60) work. Some of the leading figures in science are(61) to have used the finagle factor. Gould says that Isaac Newton fudged out (捏造) to support at least three central statements that he could not prove. And so(62)Laudius Ptolemy, the Greek astronomer, whose master work, Almagest, summed up the case for a solar system that had the earth as its centre. Recent(63)indicate that Ptolemy either faked some key data or resorted heavily to the finagle factor.

All this is important because the finagle factor is still at work. For example, in the artificial sweetener controversy, for example, it is(64) that all the studies sponsored by the sugar industry find that the artificial sweetener is unsafe,(65) all the studies sponsored by the diet food industry find nothing wrong with it.

A．collects

B．invents

C．misuses

D．enables

阅读题：There is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method of answering theoretical questions

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

There is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method of answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving practical problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships between observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with tools, techniques, and procedures for implementing the finding of science.

Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the progress in each.

Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who seek to comprehend the universe and know the truth within the highest degree of accuracy and certainty, cannot pay attention to their own or other people's likes or dislikes or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists discover may shock or anger people-as did Darwin's theory of evolution. But even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the choice of refusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology; we do not have the choice of refusing to hear the sonic boom produced by a supersonic aircraft flying overhead; we do not have the option of refusing to breathe polluted air; and we do not have the option of living in a non-atomic age. Unlike science progress, technology must be measured in terms of the human factor. The legitimate purpose of technology is to serve people in general, not merely some people; and future generations, not merely those who presently wish to gain advantage for themselves. Technology must be humanistic if it is to lead to a better world.

21. The difference between science and technology lies in that _____.

A) the former provides answers to theoretical questions while the latter to practical problems

B) the former seeks to comprehend the universe while the latter helps change the material world

C) the former aims to discover the inter-connections of facts and the rules that explain them while the latter, to discover new designs and ways of making the things we use in our daily life

D) all of the above

22. Which of the following may be representative of science？

A) The improvement of people's life.

B) The theory of people's life.

C) Farming tools.

D) Mass production.

23. According to the author, scientific theories _____.

A) must be strictly objective

B) usually take into consideration people's likes and dislikes

C) should conform. to popular opinions

D) always appear in perfect and finished forms

24. The author states that technology itself _____.

A) is responsible for widespread pollution and resource exhaustion

B) should serve those who wish to gain advantage for themselves

C) will lead to a better world if put to wise use

D) will inevitably be for bad purpose

25. The tone of the author in this passage is _____.

A) positive

C) factual

D) critical
