问题 The simplicity of the theory—its main attraction is also its (i)____, for only by (ii)____ the assumptions of the theory is it possible to explain the most recent observations made by researchers.
选项 A、liability…accepting
B、virtue…qualifying
C、downfall…considering
D、glory…rejecting
E、undoing…supplementing
答案E
解析 空格(ii)：
- 强词和对应：explain the most recent observations指向空格(ii)，取同“新的理论”才能解释“新的观察”，因此空格(ii)+the assumptions of the theory体现“新”。accept接受，qualify限定，consider考虑，reject拒绝，supplement补充。选项A和C只是停留在已有的theory层面，无法解释最近的“recent”。选项E合适，增补theory的assumption，让其能解释最近的观察
空格(i)：
- 方程等号：for表示因果，同义重复。
- 强词和对应：空格(i)和for后面的句子构成同义重复。only by后的句子倒装，正确的语序是it is possible to explain the most recent observations made by researchers only by______the assumptions of the theory。只有不断让theory变“新”才能解释最近的观察，因此体现theory是“有缺陷的”，空格(i)是一个负向词。liability责任(错)，virtue优点(错)，downfall衰落(对)，glory荣耀(错)，undoing失败的原因(对)。综合空格(ii)，答案选E。
