问题 There seems to be no (i)_______ the reading public’s thirst for books about the 1960’s: indeed, the normal level of interest has (ii)_______ recently because of a spate of popular television documentaries.

选项 A、quenching…moderated
B、whetting…mushroomed
C、curtailing…warned
D、ignoring…transformed
E、slaking…increased

答案E

解析 空格(ii):
- 方程等号:because of表示因果,同义重复。
- 强词和对应:根据题意,后文提到有大量受欢迎的纪录片,空格(ii)和popular根据because of构成同义重复,体现公众对受欢迎的事物的兴趣是增加的,填一个正向词moderate缓和,mushroom增加,warn警告,transform改变,increase增加。 选项B、D和E合适。
空格(i):
- 方程等号:冒号说明前后同义重复,no取反。
- 强词和对应:冒号前后同方向,冒号后面的3s版本为:大众的兴趣上升了。根据题意,thirst和interest同义重复,体现公众的兴趣,no取反,所以空格(i)表示“不上升”quench满足(对),whet加强(错),curtail削减(对),ignore忽视(错),slake使满足(对),兴趣满足意味着兴趣不会上升,正确。综合空格(ii),答案选E。
