问题     Benjamin Franklin is portrayed in American history as the quintessential self-made man. In “Self-reliance,” Emerson asks, “Where is the master who could have instructed Franklin…?” In fact, Franklin took instruction widely, and his scientific work was highly collaborative. Friends in England sent equipment needed for his electrical experiments, others, in Philadelphia, helped him set up his workshop there. Philip Syng constructed a device for generating electrical charges, while Tomas Hopkinson demonstrated the potential of pointed conductors. Franklin, in addition to being the group’s theoretician, wrote and published its results. His fame as an individual researcher is partly a consequence of the shorthand by which when one person writes about a group’s discoveries, history sometimes grants singular credit for collective effort. [br] Emerson is mentioned in the passage primarily to
选项 A、identify the origin of a particular understanding of Franklin
B、elaborate on a view of Franklin that the author takes issue with
C、point to a controversial claim about Franklin’s historical legacy
D、introduce the question of who Franklin’s main scientific influences were
E、suggests that Franklin was resistant to collaboration with other scientists
答案 B
解析 本题也属于功能题，正确答案是定位句3s版本，即富兰克林是自力更生的。因此选项B正确，作者所不认同的观点正是“自力更生”。A项origin在文中没有对应。C项文中未提及historical legacy。D项文中没有提到富兰克林影响了谁。E项定位句只能说明富兰克林没人教，这和抵制合作无关。
