问题 Retrofitted with stabilizing devices, some of which______its aesthetics, the bridge has been reopened, no longer prone to excessive swaying but not quite the breathtaking structure it originally was.
A impair
B resist
C improve
D enhance
E restore
F compromise

选项

答案A,F

解析 The sentence suggests that the addition of devices to make the bridge more stable has consequently lessened its previous aesthetic impact as a "breathtaking structure." The words "restore," "improve," and "enhance" do not describe the appropriate qualitative direction of the change caused by the retrofitting as "impair" and "compromise" do. Though "resist" makes some sense when inserted into the blank, it does not produce a sentence with the same meaning as either of these.
Thus the correct answer is impair(Choice A)and compromise(Choice F).
