问题 Within the culture as a whole, natural science has been so successful that the word scientific is used in (i)________manner; it is often assumed that to call something “scientific” is to imply that its reliability has been (ii)________by research whose results cannot reasonably be (iii)________.
Blank (i)       Blank (ii)     Blank (iii)
A. an ironic    D. maligned    G. disputed
B. an honorific E. challenged  H. anticipated
C. a literal    F. established I. exaggerated

选项

答案B,F,G

解析 空格(i)所在部分的逻辑连接词是so…that…表示因果关系,理解为“非常……因此……”。前面说自然科学如此成功,后面说以至于科学被以怎样的方式使用。显然空格(i)应该表达“成功”的相关含义,是正评价,排除A项an ironic(讽刺的),C项a literal(字面的)与题意不符,只有B项an honorific(尊敬的)符合。空格(ii)与空格(iii)是联动关系,逻辑连接标志是分号,表示前后同义重复。分号前面说科学如此成功,分号后面说称什么是“科学的”意味着其可靠性已经被无法合理(iii)________的方法所(ii)________了,这里空格(ii)和空格(iii)应该填一组反义词,F项established(证实)和G项disputed(争论)符合。空格(i)有同学选择literal。literal的语义比较中性,honorific在感情色彩上更合适,更符合题目中自然科学successful的含义。
