问题 Wearing the latest fashions was exclusively the (i)________ of the wealthy until the 1850’s, when mass production, aggressive entrepreneurs, and the availability of the sewing machine made them (ii)________ the middle class.

选项 A、aspiration…disagreeable to
B、vexation…superfluous for
C、bane…profitable to
D、prerogative…accessible to
E、obligation…popular with

答案D

解析 空格(i):
- 方程等号:exclusively修饰空格(i),修饰语与被修饰对象同义重复。
- 强词和对应:exclusively的释义是not shared;available to only one person or group,独享的,修饰空格(i),因此空格(i)和exclusively取同,体现潮流对有钱人是“独享的”aspiration渴望,vexation生气,bane祸害,prerogative特权,obligation义务。prerogative的释义是an exclusive or special right,power,or privilege。选项D合适。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:until时间对比,时间前后取反。
- 强词和对应:根据前文19世纪50年代之前时尚“只为”富人所有,the wealthy(富人)和the middle class(中产阶级)是不同对象的取反。 因此空格(ii)体现之后时尚对中产阶级“不是独有的”。disagreeable to令人不愉快的(错),superfluous for多余的(错),profitable to有利可图的(错),accessible to可以获得的(对),popular with受到欢迎的(对)综合空格(i),答案选D。
