Many are quick to contend—albeit falsely—that the personal essay is a(n) _______ genre: historically, the form has always played second fiddle to the more brash acts, such as the novel or long-form journalism.
A marginalized
B moribund
()=played second fiddle, 说明并不重要。A应该更符合啊,为啥答案是B呢?这里的albeit如果要取反,那么取反second fiddle,空里填的应该是“重要”啊,怎么能是moribund呢?
这里也没有古今取反,因为the form has always 就反映出来古今前后是不变的。
The rise of amateur writers online has brought with it an interesting corollary: since much of what used to be read passed under the scrupulous eye of a publishing house, the more _________ lapses in syntax were once far less in circulation.
