问题 When Henry David Thoreau wrote, "If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer," it was his way of declaring that______and solitude were perfectly acceptable habits for a fulfilling life.

选项 A、poverty
B、minimalism
C、duplicity
D、exorbitance
E、simplicity

答案B, E

解析 The best answer is B and E. While "poverty"(choice A)might be a lifestyle Thoreau would approve of, it has no synonym among the other answer choices, so it cannot be a correct answer. "Minimalism" and "simplicity" do create sentences with similar meanings—and both fit the context— therefore, they are the best choices.
