问题 Scientists’ pristine reputation as devotees of the disinterested pursuit of truth has been (i)____ by recent evidence that some scientists have deliberately (ii)____ experimental results to further their own careers.

选项 A、reinforced…published
B、validated…suppressed
C、exterminated…replicated
D、compromised…fabricated
E、resuscitated…challenged

答案D

解析 空格(i):
-方程等号:pristine表示最初的,与recent(最近的)构成时间对比,反义重复。
- 强词和对应:前文说之前科学家是客观公正地(disinterested)追求真理,后文根据时间对比说明最近科学家“不公正客观”,因此空格(i)体现之前“客观”和之后“不客观”的对立关系。reinforce加强,validate使生效,exterminate消灭,compromise危害,resuscitate复苏。选项C和D同义重复。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:pristine表示最初的,与recent(最近的)构成时间对比,反义重复。
- 强词和对应:过去是公正客观的,现在是“不客观的”,体现出科学家最近为了职业生涯蓄意(deliberately)做的动作,因此空格(ii)和disinterested取反,并且体现“deliberately”(释义:done or said in a way that is planned or intended;done or said on purpose)。publish出版,suppress压制,replicate复制,fabricate捏造,challenge挑战。fabricate的释义是to make up for the purpose of deception,故意捏造即“不客观公正”。因此综合空格(i),答案选D。
