问题 The popularity of pseudoscience and quack medicines in the nineteenth century suggests that people were very (i)______, but the gullibility of the public today makes citizens of yesterday look like hard-nosed (ii)______.

选项 A、cautious…educators
B、sophisticated…realists
C、rational…pragmatists
D、na?ve…idealists
E、credulous…skeptics

答案E

解析 空格(i):
- 方程等号:suggests表现,前后句意同义重复。
- 强词和对应:根据题意,伪科学和庸医药物在19世纪特别盛行,空格(i)和pseudoscience,quack取同,体现人们当时的特点使得“假的东西流行”,负评价。cautious谨慎的,sophisticated见多识广的,rational理性的,naive天真的,credulous轻信的。选项D和E合适。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:but但是,前后句意反义重复。
- 强词和对应:but之前说过去的人很轻信,but后面说过去的人不轻信。but之前的people对应citizen of yesterday。所以空格(ii)和空格(i)取反,填一个表示“不轻信”的词。educator教育者,realist现实主义者,pragmatist实用主义者,idealist理想主义者,skeptic怀疑者。综合空格(i),答案选E。
