问题 In arguing against assertions that environmental catastrophe is imminent, her book does not ridicule all predictions of doom but rather claims that the risks of harm have in many cases been _________.
选项 A、exaggerated
B、ignored
C、scrutinized
D、derided
E、increased
答案A
解析 - 方程等号：逗号，前后取同。
- 强词和对应：根据句意，前文描述她的书反对了“环境灾难迫在眉睫”这种言论，即环境灾难的危险是不对的，而catastrophe和harm构成同义重复，所以空格填一个负向词，对应argue against。exaggerated被夸大的，ignored被忽视的，scrutinized被仔细检查的，derided被嘲笑的，increased被增加的。选项A和D是负向词。D选项是一个干扰项，在逗号后面出现了一个not A but B的结构，A和B应该是取反的，但是D选项中的deride和前面的ridicule取同，如果代入句意变成了“她的书没有嘲笑对于世界末日的预测，相反认为环境灾难的风险被嘲笑了”，句意矛盾，排除D。正确答案是A。
