问题 With its publication in 1885, the Concord Public Library banned the book for "being more suited to the slums than to intelligent, respectable people". ______, Clemens relished the ban and happily told his publisher the controversy would generate 25,000 in sales copies.

选项 A、Unattended
B、Unbiased
C、Undeterred
D、Unbalanced

答案C

解析 C选项:Undeterred意为“未受阻的,未被吓住的”,如:It was rainingheavily,but he set out undeterred.(雨下得很大,他仍不顾一切出发了。)句意:该书于1885年出版,康科德公共图书馆禁止该书发行,理由是它更适合给贫民窟的人看,而不适于有知识的、值得尊敬的人。克莱门斯并没有知难而退,他对这个禁令没有感到沮丧,反而高兴地告诉他的出版商,这场争论会产生25 000册的销量。故选C。其他三项:Unattended无人陪伴的;Unbiased无偏见的;Unbalanced不平衡的。
