Human beings are attracted to the supernatural phenomena.ESP will always continue to fascinate.Some of the most successful films in recent years have fuelled interest among the younger generations who are starting to ask the same questions and to look for explanations for the same phenomena as their parents and grandparents before them.Who knows?One day we might just find these answers because one thing is certain,“The truth is out there!”
【语篇导读】这是一篇科普文。人们对于第六感这一超自然的现象很感兴趣,但遗憾的是,迄今为止人们没能证明第六感是否存在,只有时间能告诉我们这个问题的答案了。
Accordingtothepassage,Rhine’sbook .
A.wasacceptedbyfamousscientistsinESPfield
B.presentedthefirst-handevidenceagainstESP
C.wasn’ttrustedandbelievedbythepublic
D.trulyprovedresult softheexperiments
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。由第三段内容可知,Rhine在1934年写了一本书,宣称他掌握了关于第六感存在的大量证据,但其他科 学家用同样的方式去研究却不能得到与他一样的结果,于是这本书就失去了可靠性(thebooklosingmuchofitsoriginalreliability),由此可知选C项,他的书不被公众接受。
