问题 Contrary to the antiquated idea that the eighteenth century was a ______ island of elegant assurance, evidence reveals that life for most people was filled with uncertainty and insecurity.
选项 A、clannish
B、declining
C、tranquil
D、recognized
E、sprawling
答案 C
解析 - 方程等号：contrary to与…相反，前后句意反义重复。
- 强词和对应：根据逗号后面的内容，证据揭示了对于大多数人来说，生活充满了不确定(uncertainty)和不安全感(insecurity)。uncertainty或insecurity指向空格，根据contrary to取反，体现“确定的”或者“有安全感的”，空格填入一个正向词。clannish排外的，declining衰退的，tranquil平静的，recognized公认的，sprawling蔓延的。tranquil的释义是free from disturbance or turmoil。答案选C。
