问题 An argument made by supporters of smoking was that ______.
What does the author mean by "paralysis by analysis"(Last line, paragraph 4)?

选项 A、Endless studies kill action.
B、Careful investigation reveals truth.
C、Prudent planning hinders progress.
D、Extensive research helps decision-making.

答案A

解析 语义判断题。根据题干可以找到原文的出题句,是文章倒数第二段的最后一句:Instead of a plan of action, they continue to press for more research-a classic case of "paralysis by analysis", 根据这个出题句,我们得知这句话的意思是"不是采取行动,他们而是继续去进行研究—一个典型的’X’案例(X表示本题被猜测的对象)。根据这句话中的"instead"我们就得知,"X"一定不是具体的行动,而应该是研究(re search),这句话中的破折号相当于冒号,表示对前句话的解释说明。四个选项中只有答案选项有这样的意思。
