问题 Invention was (i)________the work of the ancient Greek historians, whose writings were filled with long and often purely fictitious speeches by great historical figures. The animating force in historical writing was rhetoric rather than (ii)________. Even well into the eighteenth century, not a few historians continued to understand themselves as artists, given a license to invent.
Blank (i)         Blank (ii)
A. discouraged in D. eloquence
B. a hallmark of  E. evidence
C. exceptional in F. imagination
选项
答案B,E
解析 先看空格(i)，逗号前面说invention(此处为虚构的意思)是古希腊历史学家作品的________，逗号后面说这些文章充斥着long and often purely fictitious speeches(通常是纯虚构的长篇演讲)。就说明古希腊历史学家对于invention持正面态度，文中并未体现对虚构的评价，所以C项exceptional in(独特的，异常的)也不合适，只能选B，a hall mark of(标志)。再看空格(ii)，逻辑连接词是rather than，表示前后语义相反。前面说激发历史写作的动力是rhetoric(华丽的词藻)，而不是________，这里rhetoric与前文的fictitious同义对应，表示“虚华的辞藻”，空格(ii)与其相反，E项evidence(证据)符合。
