问题 It would be naïve to treat remarks made in diaries or personal letters as giving especially candid access to historical truth or even as being expressions of the writer’s true state of mind, since the (i)________for exaggeration and deception in those forms is virtually nonexistent. Diaries and letters are rarely sites for (ii)________.
Blank (i)     Blank (ii)
A. motivation D. premeditated manipulation
B. penalty    E. childish theatrics
C. tendency   F. balanced reflection
选项
答案B,F
解析 因果类题目，since引导原因。两个空格所在句子是对第一句话的解释。因此，对第一句话的理解很重要：把日记或者是个人信件中的言论(remarks made in diaries or personal letters)视作对于历史真相或者作者真实内心状态的表达的客观理解(candid access)的做法显得非常天真(naive)。言外之意不应该这么做，这里注意candid：flee from prejudice；impartial，所以后面就在解释为什么不能这么做，空格(i)表示的是对于夸张和欺骗(exaggeration and deception)的________不存在，导致这些东西(remarks made in diaries or personal letters)不靠谱。很好理解，只能是作者在这些文章中天马行空乱写，没有任何限制，空格(i)应填入一个类似于“限制”的词，所以选择B项penalty(惩罚)。再看空格(ii)，rarely表否定，表达日记和信件不是客观公正的，选择F。注意balanced：presenting opposing points of view fairly and without bias(选自Collins)。
