答案解析

由题于中的the last paragraph定位到文章最后一段：“…we also acknowledge that using race as a political or social category to study racism，although filled with lots of challenges，remains necessary given our need to understand how structural inequities and discrimination produce health disparities(差异)between groups，”Yudeli said．
推理判断题。定位句指出，亚戴尔说道：“……我们也承认，考虑到我们需要了解结构性的不平等和歧视是如何使群体之间产生健康差异的，将种族用作研究种族主义的政治或社会范畴仍有必要，尽管这充满了挑战。”由此可知，在研究种族歧视的这些领域里，种族术语仍有用，故答案为D.。
A.“坚持种族主义使不公和歧视更加持久”，原文只指出将种族用作研究种族主义的政治或社会范畴仍有必要，而不是坚持种族主义，故排除A.；B.“种族之间的生理学差异非常惊人”，第三段最后一句提到在一项研究中，两位欧裔美国科学家共有的基因序列变异少于他们每个人与韩国科学家共有的基因序列变异，这说明遗传差异不会按照种族界限固定下来，因此B.与原文表述相反，故排除；
C.“消除种族歧视具有挑战性”，定位段指出充满挑战的是将种族用作研究种族主义的政治或社会范畴，而不是消除种族歧视，故该选项是对原文的曲解，故排除。
