问题 The science of astronomy was begun by amateurs and today remains dependent on their contributions, which are incisive by virtue of being ______ by the a priori assumptions that often vitiate the work of professional research scientists.
选项 A、characterized
B、unencumbered
C、supported
D、contradicted
E、inspired
答案B
解析 方程等号：by virtue of=because of，因为，同义重复。强词和对应：天文学是由业余爱好者开启的，而且今天它依旧依赖这些人的贡献，这些贡献是深刻的因为它们被想当然的假设所空格，这些假设削弱了专业科学家的成果。本题的方程等号是by virtue of因为，前后同方向，前面说“业余爱好者的贡献是深刻的”而后面说“想当然的假设会削弱专业科学家的成果”，所以空格应填入一个负向词。characterized以…为特征，unencumbered不受束缚，supported被支持，contradicted被反对，inspired被激励。答案选B。
