Questions 7 to 9 are based on the following reading passage.

National character is not formally considered by social scientists in discussing economic and social development today. They believe that people differ and that these differences should be taken into account somehow, but they have as yet discovered no way to
include such variables in their formal models of economic and social development. The difficulty lies in the nature of the data that supposedly define different
national characters. Anthropologists and others are much firmer ground when they attempt to describe the cultural norms for a small homogeneous tribe or village than when they undertake the formidable task of discovering the norms that exist in a complex modern nation-state composed of many disparate groups. The situation is further complicated by the nature of judgments about character; since such judgments are overly dependent on impressions and since, furthermore, impressions are usually stated in qualitative terms, it is impossible to make a reliable comparison between the
national characters of two countries.
8. It can be inferred from the passage that the social
scientists mentioned in the first two sentences would
agree with which of the following statements?
□A It is extremely difficult to create models that account
for both economic and social development
□B Models of economic and social development would
be improved by the inclusion of adequate
descriptions of national character.
□C it is important to supplement formal models of
economic and social development with qualitative impressions of national character.

答案选B 但是我对于C选项有个疑问，它是错在因为qualitative impression 不可能得出可靠的比较还是前面的important to supplement 错了？？？

C中，social scientist确实承认考虑这些因素的重要性，但是并没有提出qualitative impression的引入，而只是表达考虑这些因素的难度。
