问题 A new television documentary focuses on one of the prime minister’s defining contradiction, portraying her as a woman who cultivated an image of________, but who liked to live grandly.

选项 A、irascibility
B、abstemiousness
C、contentiousness
D、surreptitiousness
E、insouciance

答案B

解析 逻辑连接词为but,表转折,转折前后语义相反。句中指出纪录片主要关注的是首相的defining contradiction(典型的矛盾),因此后文中要出现首相两个互为对立的特征。转折之后说首相liked to live grandly(喜欢过得奢华),转折前要填入的首相树立的形象则应该是“奢华”的反面,即与“朴素”相关的概念,因此选B项abstemiousness(有节制)。
