问题 According to the author, a born naturalist should first of all be______. [br] Which of the following statement is true?
选项 A、The author believes that a born naturalist cannot be a scientist.
B、The author’s brothers and sisters were good at music and languages.
C、The author read a lot of books about the natural world and the oil industry.
D、The author spent a lot of time working on riddles.
答案 B
解析 本题考查考生对文意的理解。作者的主要观点是："博物学家"是天生的，而"科学家"是后天培养的。而文章并未提到天生的博物学家是否能够成为科学家，因此A项是错误的。B项可以根据第一段的"Unlike them，I had no ear for music and languages，I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic"得出。C项错在"and the oil industry"。第三段的"burning the midnight oil"是"开夜车，点灯夜读"的意思，而不是"石油工业"。D项作者花大量时间解答谜语，这一选项的迷惑性较大。它是对第三段"Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle"的误解。文章原意是作者通过大量的观察、讨论和阅读之后，会突然发现自己找到了这些谜团的答案，因而感到欣喜和快乐，而不是花大量的时间空想这些谜团应如何解答。
