参考答案及解析:
1.The correct answer is D
Explanation
A “striking,” or showy, weed could indeed be said to “eclipse,” or overshadow, other plants that have more typical appearances.
2.The correct answer is E
Explanation
The dancers seem to oppose, or defy, gravity when they look weightless.
3.The correct answer is C
Explanation
The phrase “through the centuries” suggests that the first missing term will describe how the “sophisticated piece of technology” developed over a period of time. The word “such” indicates that the second missing term will contrast with “sophisticated.” Only “evolved . . a quaint” satisfies both requirements.
4.The correct answer is B
Explanation
It makes sense to say that even those who do not “concur with” Robinson’s views would “recognize” him as someone who has refused to compromise his beliefs.
5.The correct answer is D
Explanation
This very principled politician would rather be unpopular than compromise, or accept changes in, her ideals.
6.The correct answer is D
Explanation
The correct answer is (D). “Inflammatory” means arousing passion or strong emotion. The structure of the sentence indicates that the part of the sentence after the comma will explain or elaborate on the information in the first part of the sentence. Because Henderson’s radical, or revolutionary, ideas aroused enough emotion to make some people angry and to make others openly rebellious, it makes sense to say that Henderson’s ideas were inflammatory.
