问题 People frequently denigrate books about recent catastrophes as morally (i)____ attempts to profit from misfortune, but in my view our desire for such books, together with the venerable tradition to which they belong, (ii)____ them.

选项 A、inopportune…encourages
B、fortuitous…fosters
C、treacherous…safeguards
D、despicable…legitimizes
E、corrupt…generates

答案D

解析 空格(i):
- 方程等号:as表示作为,同义重复。
- 强词和对应:前文说人们诋毁关于最近灾难的书。因此,空格(i)和denigrate根据as取同,体现人们认为书是具有道德“诋毁性的”,填入一个负向词。inopportune不合时宜的,fortuitous偶然的,treacherous背信弃义的,despicable可鄙的,corrupt堕落的。选项C、D和E合适。
空格(ii):
-方程等号:but表示转折,前后反义重复。
- 强词和对应:but前面的内容说人们诋毁灾难性的书籍,them指代books about recent catastrophes,denigrate指向空格(ii),根据but取反,体现我们对于这些书的态度是“不诋毁的”,填入一个正向词。encourage鼓励(对),foster促进(对),safeguard保护(错),legitimize使合理化(对),generate产生(错)。legitimize的释义是to legitimize something,especially something bad,means to officially allow it,approve it,or make it seem acceptable,表示可接受的。safeguard一般是指有形的保护,不是这种无形的支持,排除C。因此综合空格(i),答案选D。
