问题 Ironically, the proper use of figurative language must be based on the denotative meaning of the words, because it is the failure to recognize this ______ meaning that leads to mixed metaphors and their attendant incongruity.

选项 A、esoteric
B、literal
C、latent
D、allusive
E、symbolic

答案B

解析 - 方程等号:because表示因果,前后句意同义重复。
- 强词和对应:because前面说比喻性语言的恰当使用必须基于词的本义,所以because后面也应该是本义决定了比喻义。所以没有(failure to)意识到空格就会导致比喻的混乱,因此空格和denotative取同。esoteric难以理解的,literal字面的,latent潜在的,allusive暗指的,symbolic象征的。答案选B。
