问题 Prior to the work of Heckel, illustrations of fish were often beautiful but rarely (i)______; this fact, combined with the (ii)______ nature of most nineteenth-century taxonomic descriptions, often kept scientists from recognizing differences between species.

选项 A、impressive…inaccurate
B、realistic…detailed
C、traditional…progressive
D、precise…inexact
E、distinctive…sophisticated

答案D

解析 空格(i)
- 方程等号:but但是,前后取反;rarely相当于not,再次取反,两次取反,取同。
- 强词和对应:空格(i)和beautiful根据but和rarely两次取反取同,空格填一个正向词,impressive令人印象深刻的,realistic现实的,traditional传统的,precise精确的,distinctive独特的,排除C。A、B、D和E选项备选。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:combined with相当于and,前后取同。
- 强词和对应:this fact指代的是rarely+空格(i),是一个负向词,所以空格(ii)也是一个负向词。inaccurate不精确的(对),detailed详细的(错),progressive先进的(错),inexact不精确的(对),sophisticated高级的(错)。
-比较A和D两个选项,因为要体现“没有空格(i)会使得科学家不能识别在物种之间的差异”,相比于A选项,D选项是更直接的答案。因为即使是很平常(rarely impressive)的插画书,只要标清物种的差异,还是会让科学家识别出其差别。但是如果不精准的话,那必然无法识别其中差异。
