A.illustratewheresciencecanbeappliedB.demonstratethevalueofBrooks’newbookC.remindthereaderoftheimportanceofscienceD.explainwhymanywritersusescienceintheirworks【解析】选D。推理判断题。首段第一、二句首先列举出科学的许多功能,接着指出科学有巨大的诱惑力,以致许多作家抵挡不住这种诱惑,在文学作品中运用到科学。5.Theauthormentionsthefun6.Accordingtotheauthor,whichofthefollowingcouldbeastrengthofthebook?A.Itsstrongbasis.B.Itsconvincingpoints.C.Itsclearwriting.D.Itsmemorablecharacters.【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据最后一段的“...,hiswritingismostlyclearand,tobefair,somechaptersstandoutabovetherest.Ienjoyed,...”可知,作者认为写作思路清晰是这本书的一大优势。6.Accordingtotheauthor,wh7.Whatistheauthor’sgeneralattitudetowardsthebook?A.Contradictory.
