问题 Medieval cathedrals still stand as marvels of architecture, but as far as modern science is concerned, medieval physics and chemistry are simply irrelevant, at best a dead end, at worst the very________of what science is supposed to be.

选项 A、exemplar
B、glorification
C、reflection
D、dilution
E、antithesis

答案E

解析空格中要求填入的词表示的是中世纪的物理和化学在最坏的情况下的特征。at best…at worst…表示的是一种程度递进关系，可翻译为“至多……说难听了就是……”。前面说了，在最好的情况下，中世纪的物理和化学是死胡同，体现了对中世纪物理和化学的负面评价，因此________of，what science is supposed to be(被认为是科学的________)要体现比“死胡同”程度更深的负面评价，而antithesis是所有选项中最负面的词，所以选E项antithesis(对立，相反)。
