问题
The plan, which the engineers said would save the aquifer by reducing pumping to______levels, has passed a governmental environmental review but faces opposition from outdoor and environmental groups.
选项
A、innocuous
B、feasible
C、practicable
D、minimal
E、benign
答案
A,E
解析
If the engineers think that the reduced levels will save the aquifer, they may describe the reduced levels as innocuous, minimal, remedial, or benign. Of these words, only "innocuous" and "benign" produce sentences with the same meaning. The two words "feasible" and "practicable" are similar in meaning, but do not fit the context well, because they imply that the current levels are not feasible or practicable, conflicting with the implication that the current levels, though perhaps undesirable, are nevertheless entirely feasible.
Thus, the correct answer is innocuous(Choice A)and benign(Choice E).
