问题 Although scientists claim that the seemingly (i)____ language of their reports is more precise than the figurative language of fiction, the language of science, like all language, is inherently (ii)____.

选项 A、ornamental…subtle
B、unidimensional…unintelligible
C、symbolic…complex
D、literal…allusive
E、subjective…metaphorical

答案D

解析 空格(i):
- 方程等号:more…than…前后对比,反义重复。
- 强词和对应:后面描述小说的比喻性语言,空格(i)和figurative根据比较级取反,figurative的释义是used with a meaning that is different from the basic meaning,空格(i)体现报告的语言是“非比喻性的”。ornamental装饰的,unidimensional单一维度的,symbolic象征的,literal逐字逐句的,subjective主观的。literal的释义是adhering to fact or to the ordinary construction or primary meaning of a term or expression(原本的含义)。因此选项D合适。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:Although尽管,反义重复。
- 强词和对应:前文说科学报告的“逐字逐句”的语言更加精确,the language of science(科学语言)和language of their reports(报告语言)构成同义重复,因此空格(ii)和precise根据Although取反,形容科学语言是“不精确的”。subtle微妙的(对),unintelligible无法理解的(错),complex复杂的(错),allusive间接暗示的(对),metaphorical隐喻的(对)。allusive的释义是an implied or indirect reference especially in literature。综合空格(i),答案选D。
