问题
Discussion of personal income is generally seen as______when among people who are not close friends, as it can easily be interpreted as either bragging, whining, or attempting to make the other party feel inferior.
选项
A、complimentary
B、thoughtless
C、awkward
D、self-absorbed
E、inconsiderate
答案
B,E
解析
The best answer is B and E. Most of these choices would make sense in the context of the sentence. However, only one pair will yield two sentences with very similar meanings: thoughtless and inconsiderate, both of which draw attention to the way these actions might negatively influence others. Inadvisable is an accurate description, but focuses on pragmatics, rather than the negative social consequences. Awkward is also potentially accurate but has no mate among the choices, and it also fails to convey the potential offensiveness of the act. Haughty and self-absorbed do not make much sense in the context of the sentence.
