The remarkable thing about the mayoral race, in retrospect, is that so many people wanted the job of managing a municipality so obviously about to______
A materialize
B disintegrate
C crumble
D prosper
E flourish
F scuffle
选项
答案
B,C
解析
The sentence expresses surprise that the job of mayor was seen as desirable, given the state of the municipality. Thus the phrase containing the blank likely expresses something negative about the municipality. Of the choices, three—"disintegrate," "crumble," and "scuffle"—are negative. Of these, two—"disintegrate" and "crumble"—are synonyms that would yield sentences alike in meaning, so they are the correct choices. Of the other three possibilities, one pairing, "prosper" and "flourish," are synonyms, but the mayorship of a municipality on the verge of prosperity would be a desirable job, so that pairing does not fit the meaning of the sentence. Thus the correct answer is disintegrate(Choice B)and crumble(Choice C).
