问题 Originally, most intellectual criticism of mass culture was (i)____ in character, being based on the assumption that the wider the appeal, the more (ii)____ the product.

选项 A、unpredictable...undesirable
B、ironic...popular
C、extreme...outlandish
D、frivolous...superfluous
E、negative...shoddy

答案B

解析 空格(ii):
- 方程等号:the more A,the more B,越A越B。
- 强词和对应:根据题意,the more…the more…,假设认为大众文化(mass culture)越受吸引,作品就越具有空格(ii)的特征,所以空格(ii)和appeal同义重复,填一个有吸引力的词,选B,popular,流行的。
空格(i):
- 方程等号:being based on,基于,前后取同。
- 强词和对应:如果空格(ii)和appeal构成同义重复,体现文化越有吸引力,文化产品越“好”,因此空格(i)要体现文化产品“好”是“不符合”criticism(批判)的,即体现两者之间的对立,所以空格(i)是一个负向词,B选项中的ironic矛盾的,满足,答案选B。unpredictable不可预测的…undesirable不受欢迎的;extreme极端的…outlandish奇怪的;frivolous不严肃的…superfluous多余的;negative消极的…shoddy粗制滥造的。
