　　Passage 3

　　The journal Science is adding an extra round of statistical checks to its peer-review process, editor-in-chief Marcia McNutt announced today. The policy follows similar efforts from other journals, after widespread concern that basic mistakes in data analysis are contributing to the irreproducibility of many published research findings.

　　"Readers must have confidence in the conclusions published in our journal," writes McNutt in an editorial. Working with the American Statistical Association, the journal has appointed seven experts to a statistics board of reviewing editors (SBoRE). Manu will be flagged up for additional scrutiny by the journal's internal editors, or by its existing Board of Reviewing Editors or by outside peer reviewers. The SBoRE panel will then find external statisticians to review these manuscripts.

　　Asked whether any particular papers had impelled the change, McNutt said: "The creation of the 'statistics board' was motivated by concerns broadly with the application of statistics and data analysis in scientific research and is part of Science's overall drive to increase reproducibility in the research we publish."

　　Giovanni Parmigiani, a biostatistician at the Harvard School of Public Health, a member of the SBoRE group, says he expects the board to "play primarily an advisory role." He agreed to join because he "found the foresight behind the establishment of the SBoRE to be novel, unique and likely to have a lasting impact. This impact will not only be through the publications in Science itself, but hopefully through a larger group of publishing places that may want to model their approach after Science."

　　The phrase 'flagged up" (Para.2) is the closest in meaning to ( ).

　　A. found.

　　B. revised.

　　C. marked

　　D. stored

　　【答案】C。含义题，根据flagged up所在句子的句意：手稿将被…以供杂志编辑、现有的编辑评审委员会或外部同行审查。比较四个选项，只有选项C：被标记，符合句意。故正确答案是选项C。

　　David Vaux holds that what Science is doing now ( ).

　　A. adds to researchers' workload.

　　B. diminishes the role of reviewers.

　　C. has room for further improvement.

　　D. is to fail in the foreseeable future.

　　【答案】C。细节题。定位在末段末句Vaux says that Science's idea to pass some papers to statisticians "has some merit, but a weakness is that ...."Vaux 认为《科学》 杂志的想法有一些好处，但是有个缺点是....，可知这个想法是有改进空间的，故正确答案是选项C。

　　Which of the following is the best title of the text?

　　A. Science Joins Push to Screen Statistics in Papers

　　B. Professional Statisticians Deserve More Respect

　　C. Data Analysis Finds Its Way onto Editors' Desks

　　D. Statisticians Are Coming Back with Science

　　【答案】A。主旨题。首段首句就是全文主题句，《科学》 杂志将要对同行评审过程增加额外的资源，而且全文其它各个段落都在围绕对这一想法不同专家的不同态度在论述，所以选项A是对全文中心的完整表达。
