问题 That his intransigence in making decisions (i)____ no open disagreement from any quarter was well known; thus, clever subordinates learned the art of (ii)____ their opinions in casual remarks.

选项 A、elicited…quashing
B、engendered…recasting
C、brooked…intimating
D、embodied…instigating
E、forbore…emending

答案C

解析 空格(i):
- 方程等号:intransigence(固执)和no open disagreement(没有反对意见)构成同义重复,空格(i)不改变前后逻辑方向。
- 强词和对应:elicit引出,engender产生,brook容忍,embody体现,forbear容忍。5个选项都可以成立。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:thus表示因果,同义重复。no取反。
-强词和对应:their opinions和disagreement构成同义重复。open指向空格(ii),根据no取反,体现精明的下属会表达“不公开的”反对。quash镇压,recast改正,intimate间接指出,instigate煽动,emend校订。答案选C。
