28. According to the text, online publication is significant in that
[A] it provides an easier access to scientific results.
it brings huge profits to scientific researchers.
[C] it emphasizes the crucial role of scientific knowledge.
[D] it facilitates public investment in scientific research.
[正确答案]A
[答案解析]文中两句话决定A正确,一是The Internet is making access to scientific results a reality. 二是The value of knowledge and the return on the public investment in research depends, in part, upon wide distribution and ready access. 也就是知识的价值在于其广泛传播和即时获取,而互联网使得科学成果的很容易获取变为现实。这不就是基于互联网的在线出版的重大意义吗!B不对,因为文章始终没有谈论研究者的获利问题,要说谈,它也只是谈了scientific publishing market是一个big business。而且,在线学术期刊的第二种业务模式(open-access publishing),还得研究者自己掏腰包的!科学知识本身无比重要的作用不在本文讨论范围,C不对。促进对科学研究的公共投资也无从谈起,D亦被轻松排除。

29. With the open-access publishing model, the author of a paper is required to
[A] cover the cost of its publication.
subscribe to the journal publishing it.
[C] allow other online journals to use it freely.
[D] complete the peer-review before submission.
[正确答案]A
[答案解析]考对这句话的理解:There is open-access publishing, typically supported by asking the author (or his employer) to pay for the paper to be published. 通过作者本人(或其老板)付费发表的方式支持开架在线阅览,注意,这里的付费,付什么费用呀?付给出版网站的费吗?我的想应该是发表论文的研究费用,A选项所指即这个,当然这是题外话。B乃空穴来风,毫无根据。C有一定的干扰性,本来这层意思本文也是只字示提,但既然是open-access publishing嘛,那用户应该是可以免费使用的。但是不是other online journals也可以免费使用呢(转载等),这似乎就走得远了点,原文并未提供这方面的信息,排除。D选项轻松排除。

30. Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage?
[A] The Internet is posing a threat to publishers.
A new mode of publication is emerging.
[C] Authors welcome the new channel for publication.
[D] Publication is rendered easier by online service.
[正确答案]B
[答案解析]一种新的出版方式,即在线出版正悄然兴起,乃本文主题,B选项正确。A选项不对,应该说互联网对传统出版行业构成威胁,但不威胁出版本身,在线出版商也是出版商啊。作者们欢迎不欢迎新的出版方式,一呢,咱们不得而知,二呢,绝非本文主题,C不对。在线服务应该会使出版更加容易,但一未涉及,二非主题。
