问题 Broadway audiences have become inured to (i)____ and so (ii)____ to be pleased as to make their ready ovations meaningless as an indicator of the quality of the production before them.
选项 A、sentimentality…reluctant
B、condescension…disinclined
C、histrionics…unlikely
D、cleverness…eager
E、mediocrity…desperate
答案E
解析 空格(i)：
- 方程等号：inured to的释义是to cause(someone)to be less affected by something unpleasant，表示习惯于令人不悦的事，前后同义重复。
- 强词和对应：因为百老汇的观众已经习惯于“unpleasant thing”，空格(i)为负评价，同时后文说这个作品让他们的掌声毫无意义(meaningless)，因此空格(i)和meaningless取同，填入一个负向词。sentimentality多愁善感，condescension屈尊俯就，histrionics装腔作势，cleverness聪明，mediocrity平庸。选项B、C和E合适。
空格(ii)：
- 方程等号：and平行结构，同义重复；so…as to…表示因果，同义重复。
- 强词和对应：后文说观众的掌声作为这个作品质量的指示是毫无意义的，根据空格(i)可知，他们已经习惯了这种“不好的”的表演。inured to指向空格(ii)，根据and取同，体现对表演的“负评价”。reluctant勉强的，disinclined不情愿的，unlikely不可能的，eager渴望的，desperate绝望的(suffering extreme need or anxiety)。综合空格(i)，答案选E。
