问题 It is a paradox of the Victorians that they were both________and, through their empire, cosmopolitan.

选项 A、capricious
B、insular
C、mercenary
D、idealistic
E、intransigent

答案B

解析注意paradox(矛盾)的用法，paradox提示句子中存在的两个对象是矛盾对立的。通读句子，维多利亚时代的人的矛盾在于他们既是________的，纵观整个帝国，他们又是世界主义的。空格对“世界主义”取反，所以选B项insular(狭隘的)。
