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

解析一、二空格距离较近，表示交通拥堵不是象征着什么，而是象征着什么。冒号引导对于前面内容的解释，所以线索从后面来寻找。冒号后面说交通拥堵提升了对于我们环境的思考，并且给我们提供了一个共享的体验，都是一些正面的描绘，所以空格(ii)一定是一个好的体现，因此选择F。far from结构表示对比，因此一、二空是一对反义词，所以空格(i)选择B项decline(英文释义为to deteriorate gradually；fail)。
