问题 In their preface, the collection’s editors plead that certain of the important articles they (i)______ were published too recently for inclusion, but in the case of many such articles, this (ii)______ is not valid.

选项 A、discussed…replacement
B、omitted…excuse
C、revised…clarification
D、disparaged…justification
E、ignored…endorsement

答案 B

解析 空格(i):
- 方程等号:important articles和they之间省略that,that引导定语从句,修饰articles,前后句意同义重复。
- 强词和对应:空格(i)表现编辑对重要的文章(important articles)的动作,根据were published too recently for inclusion可知文章的发表时间太晚所以没有被收录,因此空格(i)填一个负向词,体现这些文章“没有被收录”。discuss讨论,omit遗漏,revise修改,disparage轻视,ignore忽视。D和E都表示“忽视、轻视”,但是这和important矛盾,所以排除D和E,答案选B。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:this表示指代,说明前文出现过该对象,同义重复。
- 强词和对应:前文说作品集的编辑们为自己的行为找借口(plead的释义是if you plead a particular thing as the reason for doing or not doing something,you give it as your excuse),因此空格(ii)和plead根据this构成同义重复,体现“借口”。replacement代替(错),excuse借口(对),clarification澄清(错),justification正当的理由(错),endorsement支持(错)。justification的释义是a justification for something is an acceptable reason or explanation for it,和not valid(不合理的)矛盾,因此排除选项D。 选项B合适。
