Blank (i)      Blank (ii)                 Blank (iii)
A. established D. defining features of    G. evaluate
B. contested   E. derivative aspects of   H. ignore
C. presented   F. traditional theories of I. propose

选项

答案A,D,I

解析 通读题干,首先来看空格(i),说的是美索不达米亚南部的乌鲁克怎么样了第一个城市并且是后来城市的模范,但是至少有两个北边的遗址获得了一个明显的证据,证明在乌鲁克之前早就存在城市了,所以符合语境的选项有两个,A或者是C。通过后面的阅读,空格(iii)后面提到了一个概念reconsideration,证明在此之前,某个观念是深入人心的、普遍接受的,所以这里选择A项established。再看空格(iii),空格(i)所在句子语义已经很完整,人们发现了其他能够推翻之前假设的证据,就应该怎么样一个reconsideration,只能提出,不能去评估,所以空格(iii)选择I项propose。空格(ii)填完之后要体现出这些早期的urbanism的一个什么特点,这个特点导致了学者们重新思考,所以一定是一个非常确定的、明确的特点。因此空格(ii)选择D项defining features of。
