first of all, it seems that a successful scientist is curious- he wants to find out how and why the universe works. he usually paysattention to problems which he notices have no satisfying explanation, and looks for relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected. moreover, he thinks he can improve the existing conditions and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves.he is a good observer, accurate, patient and objective and uses the facts he observes to the fullest. for example, trained observers obtain a very large amount of information about a starmainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum（光谱）.he does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available. he rejects authority as the only basis for truth. scientists always check statements and makeexperiments carefully and objectively.furthermore, he does not readily accept his own idea, since he knows that man is the leastreliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation.lastly, he is full of imagination since he often has to look for relationships in data which arenot only complex but also frequently incomplete. furthermore, he needs imagination if he wants to guess how processes work and how events take place.these seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts.28. which of the following statements about a curious scientist is not true?a. he focuses on the problems that have no reasonable explanations.b. he makes efforts to investigate potential connections.c. he is interested in condition-improving and problem-solving.d. he rejects authority as he believes himself to be the only reliable one.29. according to the passage, a successful scientist would .a. easily appreciate others research work. b. easily believe in unchecked statements. c. always accept authority as the only basis for truthd. always use evidence from observation to the fullest.30. which word can be used to describe the authors attitude that a good scientist holds towards the scientific research?a. objective and careful. b. curious and casual c. cautious and arrogant. d. subjective and down-to-earth.31. what does the passage mainly discuss?a. key to a successful scientist. b. scientists ways of thinking and acting.c. progress in modern science. d. application of modern technology. dintodays householdswherebothparentsgotoworkandkidshavebusyscheduleswith school, homework andmanyafternoonactivities,findingtimeforagatheringatthetable seems all but impossible. yet, studieshaveshowntimeandagainthateatingtogetherhas multiple benefitsfor family members, especially children.accordingtoreportsissuedbythenationalcenteronaddictionandsubstance abuseat columbia university(casa), childrenwhoeatmore withtheirfamilyareatlowerriskof developing poor eating habits, weightproblemsoralcoholdependencies. they tendtoperform better academically thanthose who frequently eatalone.familymeals came into american life inthemid-20thcentury. inthe 60sand70s, social, economic and technological changes quickly dissolved the short-lived way of family meals. restaurant visits, take-out and tv dinnershave since becomethenorm (常态).thereareindications,however,thattheoldcustomsarecomingback. according tothe latestcasa reports, 59% ofsurveyedfamiliessaidtheyatedinnertogetheratleastfivetimes aweek, asignificant increase from47%in1998.whateverdrivesthistrend,itisa developmentthat should be welcomed.eatingtogetherasafamilyisnotjustaboutfoodandnutrition.itis aboutteachingthem how to become membersoftheirsocietyandculture.foodhasbecomesoeasilyand cheaply available that we no longer appreciateits significance. wehavetorediscoverits importance andits value. sharing a meal with loved onesshouldbeconsideredaspecialevent,which canalmost takeontheformof a ceremony, as it was practiced by our ancestors for whom findingfoodwas aconstantstruggle. ofcourse,thereisnoguaranteethatthesimpleactofeatingathomesurroundedby family may make children more virtuousorsociallymoreresponsible. but it can lay the groundworkfor alotofthingsthat point themintherightdirection.32. what does the underlined sentence suggest?
