參考答案【正確答案：A】
文章最后一段前兩句指出“但是這種系統(tǒng)并不盡善盡美。有限測試發(fā)現(xiàn)它對有問題的網(wǎng)站的封鎖并不全面。”接下來，作者舉例說明：比如進(jìn)入美國知名的“花花公子”網(wǎng)站，結(jié)果就會馬上出現(xiàn)了一個(gè)封鎖信息，報(bào)告這是一個(gè)“錯誤分類”的網(wǎng)站。相反，你可以在其他國家，比如新西蘭找到自稱為“致力于為全球所有熱情者提供性欲、性幻想及任何一點(diǎn)非同尋常的東西”的色情網(wǎng)站。可見最后一段中的例子是為了說明該段主題句（Limited testing found the blocking of some “questionable” sites was not comprehensive.）的支持性細(xì)節(jié)。從例子可以推出該主題句的意思是“一些有問題的網(wǎng)站沒有被發(fā)現(xiàn)。”
