问题 Architecture scholar Sandy McCreery recently argued that traffic congestion, far from being a sign of urban (i)________, is a mark of urban (ii)________; congestion promotes contemplation of our surroundings and provides us with a shared experience, thereby fulfilling the essential task of the city.
Blank (i)                   Blank (ii)
A. plentitude               D. ambition
B. decline                 E. privation
C. excitement              F. health
选项
答案B，F
解析 空格(i)+空格(ii)：
- 方程等号：far from=not，反义重复；分号，同义重复。
- 强词和对应：建筑学者Sandy McCreery最近认为交通拥堵，不是一个城市空格(i)的迹象，而是一个城市空格(ii)的象征，所以空格(i)和空格(ii)是一组反义词。选项中第一组反义词plentitude大量和privation匮乏，第二组反义词decline衰落和health兴旺。
-分号前后内容一致，分号后面说交通拥堵完成了城市的必要任务，所以这里对于交通拥堵是一个正评价，空格(ii)应该填入一个正向词，而空格(i)是一个负向词，所以答案选BF。其余选项，excitement兴奋，ambition雄心壮志。
