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)。
