Read the following passage carefully and complete the succeeding three items II, III, IV

• The confidence people place in science is frequently based not on what it really is, but on what people would like it to be. When I asked students at the beginning of the year how they would define science, many of them replied that it is an objective way of discovering certainties about the world. But science cannot provide certainties. For example, a majority of Americans trust science as long as it does not challenge their existing beliefs. To the question “When science disagrees with the teachings of your religion, which one do you believe?,” 58 percent of North Americans favor religion; 33 percent science; and 6 percent say “it depends?⁵
• But doubt in science is a feature, not a bug. Indeed, the paradox is that science, when properly functioning, questions accepted facts and yields both new knowledge and new questions-not certainty. Doubt does not create trust, nor does it help public understanding. So why should people trust a process that seems to require a troublesome state of uncertainty without always Droviding solid solutions?
• As a historian of science, I would argue that it’s the responsibility of scientists and historians of science to show that the real power of science lies precisely in what is often perceived as its weakness: its drive to question and challenge a hypothesis. Indeed, the scientific approach requires changing our understanding of the natural world whenever new evidence emerges from either experimentation or observation. Scientific findings are hypotheses that encompass the state of knowledge at a given moment. In the long run, many of them are challenged and even overturned. Doubt might be troubling, but it impels us towards a better understanding; certainties, as reassuring as they may seem, in fact undermine the scientific process.
• Scientists understand this, but in the dynamic between the public and science、 there are two significant Ditfhlls.
• The first is a form of blind scientism-that is, a belief in the capacity of science to solve all problems. The popular narrative of science is linear, embodied by heroic researchers who work selflessly for the good of humanity. Indeed, some scientists promote this attractive public image of their work. But this narrative ignores the ubiquity of controversy, conflict and error at the very heart of the scientific world. Such an idealized representation tends to turn science into an unquestionable set of beliefs. In fact, however, the power of science lies precisely in its capacity to generate discussion and even discord.
• The second pitfail is a form of relativism borne out of a lack of confidence in the very existence of truth. It develops when science is divorced from method and viewed as just another claim in the marketplace of ideas. A Pew Research study shows that 35 percent of Americans think the scientific method can be used to produce “any result a researcher wants.” Once the scientific approach has been delegitimized, then all hypotheses, including the most outlandish and irrational ones, can be taken as credible. So, hidden in this conceit of a democratic ”marketplace of ideas⁵⁵is a particularly virulent form of relativism that approaches nihilism.
• Such examples of relativism about issues including climate change and, most recently, the COVID-19 pandemic-have significantly contributed to the proliferation of fake news and conspiracy theories. The diffiision of fake news is facilitated by the difficulty of a large majority of Americans in distinguishing between fhct and opinion.Factual news can be proved or disproved by objective evidence, while opinion is an expression of the beliefs and values of the speaker.
• In an effort to combat misinformation, scientists may overcompensate by accelerating their research, oc publicizing their findings prematurely.This can spur dialogue about science, but with serious side effects. The scientific process itself has been called into question during the pandemic in cases where the very institutions and peer review process that were supposed to check scientific results failed to detect scams.
• So how to regain public trust in science when the public is looking fbr certainties and when those who are supposed to impersonate doubt seem to be fickle or dogmatic? A more realistic understanding of how science works can contribute to a better comprehension of the decisive role of doubt and skepticism in the scientific process. Indeed, science is not a linear path leading from one success to another, but rather a constant revaluation of hypotheses. Failures are part of the scientific process and should be taught along with successes.
• It is, therefore, not so much the content of scientific discoveries that should be highlighted, but the understanding of the scientific process itself that must be enhanced. No one expects the public at large to fiilly understand all discoveries or to be able to arbitrate between possible treatments.But what must be reaffirmed is that in science, doubt is not a vulnerability but a strength. The scientific approach often leads to dead ends, but sometimes it leads to fundamental discoveries that no other approach has ever achieved.

She appealed to me because she was like people I had 32 met personally. Like women in English novels who walked the moors (whatever they were) with their 33 dogs racing at a respectful distance. Like the women who sat in front of 34 fireplaces, drinking tea 35 from silver trays full of scones and crumpets. Women who walked over the “heath” and read morocco-bound books and had two last names 36 by a hyphen.

To share a bedroom with one of these fellows is to lose one’s 37 in human nature, for, even after the most 38 day there is no comparing notes 39 them, no midnight confidence, no casting up the balance of the day’s pleasure and pain. They _40_, at once, into stupid, heavy slumber, leaving you to your own mental devices. And they all snore 41 !

The senior partner studied the resume for the 42 time and again found nothing he 43 about Mitchell Y McDeere, at least not on paper. He had the brains, the ambition, the good looks. And he was hungry; with his background, he had to be. He was married, and that was 44 . The firm also frowned 45 on divorce, as well as 46 and drinking.

At the very top, of course, are those people, mostly young and without 47 , to whom the company is not 48 an institution of any sacred merit but still only a place to work, and who 49 their present association with it as something 50 . I put these people at the top because if you asked any one of them if he would choose to spend the rest of his life working for the company, he would give you a 51 No!_? regardless of what inducements were offered.

There is a difference 52 my schooling and the wisdom of the street 53 . I know the life of a black man in Watts is 54 than a federal poverty program. If there is no future for the black ghetto, the future of all Negroes is 55 . What affects it, affects me, for I am a child of the ghetto. When they do it to Watts, they do it to me, too. ril never escape from the ghetto. I have 56 my all on its future. Watts is my home.

4. 对于这些产品领先者来说，竞争并非有关产品价格或客户服务（尽管它们不能被忽 视），而是有关产品性能。
5. 晚年生活中获得满足乃至成就的潜能是真实存在而未被充分开发的。大体上，老年 人都是在一个冷漠的世界里挣扎着生存。
6. 你杀死了你的敌人，而当他死了，你的职业便不复存在，你从胜利中获得的满足感 也会很快消退。另一方面，建设的工作一旦完成，会想起来就愉悦，而且永远不会 因为彻底完成而没有更进一步去做的余地。
