【语篇导读】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了在科学领域我们应该持续观察，不断探索，勇于发现“黑天鹅”。
56.【答案】what
【解析】考查名词从句。此处是宾语从句，并且在从句中作主语，应用what引导，指代“观察到的东西”，故填what。句意：这种获得真理的方法需要用对跟随一种理论发展而来的具体事件的观察来解释所观察到的东西。
57.【答案】int
【解析】考查动词短语中的介词。动词短语inquire int，后接every pssibility作介词int的宾语，故填int。句意：然而，科学家的本质是探究每一种可能性，这意味着他们经常发现以前从未见过或注意到的东西。
58.【答案】t change
【解析】考查非谓语动词。cease t d sth.停止做某事，故填t change。句意：所以我们的普遍理论从未停止改变。
59.【答案】is gained
【解析】考查被动语态语态。此处用谓语动词，句子描述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时态；根据句意及介词by可知，本句要用被动语态be dne；又因为主语是不可数名词knwledge(知识) ，所以谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式，故填is gained。句意：事实上，我们的大部分新知识都是通过观察我们从未见过的事物而获得的。
60.【答案】assumptin
【解析】考查词性转换(名词)。分析句子可知，此处为名词；由谓语动词was可以判断，应用名词单数形式。故填assumptin。句意：在看到第一只黑天鹅之前，人们假设所有的天鹅都是白色的，这被称为“黑天鹅理论”。
61.【答案】thugh/althugh
【解析】考查状语从句。句意：总会有“未知的未知数”，比如黑天鹅，尽管有些人批评那些胆敢暗示它们存在的人。根据句子结构和句意可知，此处使用从属连词thugh/althugh(尽管)引导让步状语从句，故填thugh/althugh。
62.【答案】bjective
【解析】考查词性转换(形容词)名词。连系动词be后面要用形容词作表语，故填bjective。句意：我们应该始终保持客观，对于我们以为自己知道的事情提出质疑。
63.【答案】bund
【解析】考查固定短语。be bund t一定会.句意：未来的世界一定会与现在不同。
64.【答案】a
