问题 Despite their seemingly______architecture, the pyramids of Giza are actually intricate marvels of ancient engineering.
选项 A、romantic
B、complex
C、classical
D、simplistic
答案 D
解析    (1)句子结构。
   本句的结构：Despite their seemingly______architecture(让步状语)，the pyramids of Giza(主语)are(系动词)actually intricate marvels of ancient engineering(主语补语)。
   (2)选项词义。
   A．romantic adj．浪漫的；富于浪漫色彩的；传奇性的；耽于幻想的
   B．complex adj．由许多部分组成的；合成的；复合的；配合的；络合的
   C．classical adj．古希腊文学的；标准的；传统的；经典的
   D．simplistic adj．(把复杂问题)过分简单化的
   本句大意为“吉萨金字塔看似简单，但实际上是古代纷繁复杂建筑工程的一大奇迹”。根据despite引导的让步状语可知，空格部分需要补充的词在意义上与主句中的intricate形成对比／反义关系；从四个选项来看，只有simplistic最符合句意，因此选D项。

   ①complex adj．not easy to analyze or understand；complicated or intricate
   e．g．The causes are a complex blend of local and national tensions．
   原因很复杂，既有地方性冲突也有全国范围的紧张局势。
   ②complicated adj．involving many different and confusing aspects
   e．g．The situation was complicated by the spread of a serious forest fire．
