问题 In aquatic environments, the herbicide atrazine is more likely to (i)______ developing amphibians when it is highly diluted than when it is much more concentrated, a new study suggests. Although counterintuitive, the finding is (ii)______ some past research on atrazine and studies show that other hormonally active compounds are most damaging at trace concentrations.
Blank (i)                    Blank (ii)
A. supplant               D. unanticipated given
B. kill                    E. consistent with
C. circumvent              F. undiminished by

选项

答案B,E

解析 空格(ii):
- 方程等号:although尽管,反义重复。
-强词和对应:although部分说尽管这个发现不符合常规,但是与过去关于atrazine的研究空格(ii)。强词是counterintuitive,负向词,指向空格(ii),根据although反义重复,空格(ii)应填入一个正向词。unanticipated given意料之外的,consistent with一致的,undiminished by未被削弱的。答案选择E。
空格(i):
- 方程等号:句号,同义重复。
- 强词和对应:although部分的主句说其他的激素化合物在微量浓度的情况下最具杀伤性,其中的trace concentrations与highly diluted同义重复,强词是damaging,指向空格(i),根据句号同义重复,空格(i)应填入一个damaging的同义词。supplant替代,kill杀害,circumvent躲避。答案选择B。
