问题 The most striking thing about the politician is how often his politics have been (i)______rather than ideological, as he adapts his political positions at any particular moment to the political realities that constrain him. He does not, however, piously(ii)______political principles only to betray them in practice. Rather, he attempts in subtle ways to balance his political self-interest with a(iii)______, viewing himself as an instrument of some unchanging higher purpose.

选项

答案C,D,H

解析 Since the politician is portrayed as adapting political positions to political realities, blank(i)should be filled with "strategic," which is also the only choice that provides the required contrast with "ideological." The second blank, brandishing political principles is what a politician might do piously, while flouting is not pious and following principles does not make sense when combined with "betray[ing]them in practice." The third blank requires something that would have to be balanced against "political self-interest" and that would be embraced in service of an "unchanging higher purpose," making "deeply felt moral code" the only viable choice.
Thus, the correct answer is strategic(Choice C), brandish(Choice D), and deeply felt moral code(Choice H).
