问题 He was never (i)________: he was nothing if not (ii)________, so he forbore for the present to declare his passion.
Blank (i)     Blank (ii)
A. impetuous  D. boorish
B. thoughtful E. circumspect
C. chivalrous F. spontaneous

选项

答案A,E

解析 先看空格(ii),逻辑连接词是so,表示前后同义。前面说他极其(ii)________,(这里nothing if not相当于“非常”),后面说他忍住(forbore)不去表达他的爱慕之情,所以空格(ii)表达“克制感情”的含义,选项中符合预期的是E项circumspect。空格(i)所在部分表示他一点都不怎样。冒号前后同义,既然是克制感情,又如此谨慎,那么空格(i)应该表示“克制感情,谨慎”的反义,是负评价。A项impetuous符合预期。
