问题
Although she admitted that her airport expansion plan had recently collapsed, the governor (i)________the significance of the failure, pointing out that competing economic development proposals are now more (ii)________.
Blank (i) Blank (i)
A. minimized D. tenuous
B. touted E. complicated
C. acknowledged F. important
选项
答案
A,D
解析
两句话的逻辑连接词为although,引导让步转折。让步的部分:she admitted that her airport expansion plan had recently collapsed(她承认机场扩张的计划失败了),这里的she指代的是the governor (州长)。转折的部分:这个州长(i)________失败的影响。转折的部分与让步的部分取反,应该体现这个州长不愿意承认自己失败,即这个州长弱化了自己失败的影响,认为自己不那么失败。把A、B、C依次代入空格,发现B选项语义不合理(不可能吹嘘自己的失败),C选项无法构成转折,所以空格(i)应该选A项minimized(弱化,降低)。空格(ii)所在的部分pointing out that competing economic development proposals are now more(ii)________为分词短语作状语,表示governor的状态,与空格(i)所在的句子意思保持一致。这个州长指出竞争对手的经济发展计划(competing economic development proposals)具有(ii)________的特征,体现州长认为自己没有那么失败。只有在竞争对手的计划也很不好的情况下,这个州长的失败才会显得不那么失败,所以空格(ii)填表示容易失败的词,因此选D项tenuous(站不住脚的),意思就是别人的意见也好不到哪去,所以弱化了自己失败的影响。
