As an【C1】______at Wellesley College, Hillary mixed academic excellence with school government. Speaking at graduation, she said, "The challenge now is to practice politics as the art of making what appears to be impossible,【C2】______."

答案
J
解析
此处可为形容词、动词原形或动词过去分词,作为making的宾语补足语。从making what appears to be impossible的语义可知,希拉里想改变一些看起来不可能的事,本题填写possible一词最为合适,因为该词可表明希拉里的雄心勃勃,还在结构上与impossible相对,从而突出说话人坚决的态度。
