Given the sentence 'Nor, if regularity and conformity to a standard pattern are as desirable to the scientist as the average person, does this mean that the scientist will not be interested in exceptions to the rule?', which of the following is the best interpretation of the scientist's interest in exceptions?
答案解析
This question考察考生对虚拟语气和倒装句的理解,以及推理判断能力。选项A错误,因为句子中使用了虚拟语气,表明科学家对例外情况是有兴趣的。选项B错误,因为句子并没有说科学家对规则和例外有同等的兴趣。选项C错误,因为句子没有提到例外必须符合标准模式。选项D正确,因为句子表明科学家可能会对规则的例外情况感兴趣,并认为它们值得研究。
正确答案:D
