问题 “Argument” may be an overly (i)________word to apply to the gossamer contrivance that is A summer of Humming birds. In what seems a self-conscious (ii)________of its mascot, the book flits from one subjects or moment in history to another, following the various whims of its authors.
Blank (i)    Blank (ii)
A. archaic   D. repudiation
B. imprecise E. emulation
C. strong    F. misrepresentation
选项
答案C,E
解析 先看空格(i)，注意overly意为“过分地”，把“争论(argument)”一词用于一本轻快的书(gossamer contrivance)可能会过于________，那么空格(i)应该和gossamer相关，三个选项里只有C项strong(强烈的)相关，是gossamer的反义词。再看空格(ii)，首先要注意一个词mascot(吉祥物)，这里关键是要弄清楚mascot指代什么。整个句子里面唯一出现的物件是书名里面的蜂鸟(humming bird)，因此mascot只可能指代“蜂鸟”。句子说，在似乎是自觉地对mascot的________中，书从一个主题或时期轻快地飞到(flits)另一个上。书怎么能飞呢?这里显然是一种比喻，将书主题上的跳跃与鸟类的动作做了比较，因此可以推断出空格(ii)应填入表示“相像，类似”的词，选E项emulation(模仿)。
