we didn’t know for a sure? That the evidence was inconclusive, 【M1】______.
the science uncertain? That the antismoking lobby was out to destroy our way of life

at the growing threat of global warming. The latest was a 【M4】______.
panel from the National Academy of Sciences, enlisted by the White House, to tell us that
the Earth’s atmosphere is definitely warming and that the problem is largely man-made.

ourselves. The president of the National Academy, Bruce
Alberts, added this key point in the preface of the panel’s 【M6】______.
report "Science never has all the answers but science

important policies over the best judgments that science 【M8】______.

选项
答案
but改成and
解析
根据句子意思,Lots of Americans bought that nonsense与some 10 million smokers went to early graves之间不是转折关系,因为“许多美国人听信了错误的说法”,进而“过了三十年,大约一千万烟民早逝”,可见它们之间呈并列或递进关系,所以把but改为and。
